WET WET armpits...rec's for an antiperspirant?

[butterflyblue]

Dove is excellent! I have used it for a few years now and I have never ever had it fail me yet!

Used to have the same problem. I'd sweat for no reason. I could be freezing standing outside in the middle of January and my armpits would still be sweating. Certain Dry did the trick. Now I don't even have to use it anymore. I used it for several months (along with another antiperspirant/deodorant during the day just so I would smell nicer). Then one day I realized that I didn't need it anymore. The sweating problem came back once last year, but after a couple nights with CD it's been gone ever since.

wow, thanks for all of the input everyone! I bought Mitchum today (seeing as how Certain Dri wasn't in stock) so lets see how this goes. If this doesn't work, then i'll have to try out the Certain Dri. Wish me luck!! lol.

has anyone tried the botox shots? I've tried Drysol and Certain Dri. The drysol did nothing and the Certain Dri wasn't that great either. I know the botox can get a little expensive so I want to know true accounts of whether it works. Also has anyone used certain Dri on any other areas other than armpits?

Secret just came out with a "clinical strength" formula. You put it on at night so it has a chance to soak in. It's supposed to work even if you shower the next morning, then you use a regular deodorant during the daytime. It seems to work ok.

Maxim is a medical strength one for hyperhydrosis it works . A bit too well in my opinion , I dont sweat at all anymore.

I have the same problem. I use Certain Dri but after a few days of not using it I notice I start sweating again. If I use it every night or two then it is great. I have heard of many people that use it for awhile and then never have to use it again. I've been using it for about 2 years and have not had that luxury.

I don't recommend using it within 24 hours of shaving. Yee-ouch!!!

hi ladies, i was the one who posted this thread so i thought i would give an update! i used the Mitchum's for ladies for about 3 weeks with no such luck with reducing underarm wetness. so, then i tried Cerntain Dri...which is WONDERFUL! omg, i cant tell u all how thankful i am that someone invented this. why dont they just put this ingredient in regular anti perpirants? i've been using it for about 5-6 months and haven't had a single day where i sweat through my shirt...or sweat at all! i'm tellin you, i'm DRY no matter what i'm doing durin the day!

as for the botox shots, i havent had any experience with them BUT i was watching Tyra or Oprah one day and she had this lady on the show with a SEVERE sweating problem. she would sweat from everywhere: underarms, hands, feet, back, neck...and Oprah (or Tyra ?) gave her a gift certificate for free botox shots...and as far as i remember, the girl gave an update with great/satisfactory results! hth!

iwent thru the same thing with sweating, and let me tell you it was a major problem, especially when you have to get dressed up for work everyday. I read about certain dri in a magazine 3 or 4 years ago, and yes - it is a miracle product - however, some stores sell a generic version, which works just as well for a few bucks less. Just check the ingredients.

I have a wetness problem too, and I use Adidas for women antiperspirant... on the front it says its supposed to last 48 hours. I don't know about that but it certainly works well for a day haha. They sell it pretty much everywhere.

Certain dry

Honestly this stuff will SAVE YOUR LIFEEEEEEEEE I PROMISE

 

[usersassychick0]

I highly recommend Certain Dri!! You use it at night, and you can use another one in the morning(adidas works well for morning). But it has helped a lot... but the down side is that for the 1st while that you use it, it is very itchy. But it works, i have used it for almost a year and it doesn't itch anymore...

 

[anjanasadil]

Certain Dri rocks! although i wish it was scented. i'm looking for a nice scented deo now to wear during the day...just to feel fresher.

Dove ultimate clear is wonderful. It keeps me dry all day long.

Certain Dri is awesome, but it's only an antiperspirant, not a deodorant. I also like crystal stick deodorant, but it's only a deodorant, not an antiperspirant. You can also get it in roll-on or spray forms.

If you go to their website you can fill out a survey for a free sample! (full size I think)During the day I wear Secret Platnium soft solid, the best!

Certain Dry works wonders. I used to have the same problem (which thankfully went away). I used to just sweat and sweat and sweat. I could be freezing and sweating. I started using that and within a week it stopped. Just stopped. You do have to put it on at night though - which is a little weird. I would also use a regular deodorant during the day, like Secret - just to have the good smell.
