Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 5

Unbelievable !
I am 33 years old very healthy person, but underarms sweating changed my social life so much. I tried every possible option and had no success.Every passing day I was thinking more and more about surgery to stop that embarrassing sweating.Then,I came across "certain dri". I was very skeptical about any improvements,but i got one at target .Manual says "apply only before bed time".I couldn't wait ... Took shower,and applied descent amount on my armpits right after i bought it . Little burn on my skin and nothing else...So far so good... I put my shirit on and left ot grocerry store .First 10 min everything was dry,and then i started sweating like usual.Didn't worked at all.
Next night i applied some and vent to bed.in the morning ,on my surprise i was completely dry! After some time i noticed little wet spots but they disappeared fast.Whole night i was dry! Next day 100% dry without drop of sweat. 40 hours ago since I applied certain dri and not even one drop of sweat!
I vent to the gym,running ,had shower...Just did my every day things.Tonight ,ill put some again.
This thing does unbelievable job! I cant express my happiness .After years of living with this embarrassing sweating ,i find solutions for only 6 bucks !
Certain dri changed my life!!!
Highly recommended,You can loose only 6$!

Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 5

I'm a 32 year old male that has suffered from excessive under arm sweating since I was a teenager. I have tried all those supposed clinical strength anti-perspirants to no avail. I tried Certain Dri and was blown away. This was the last straw before considering Botox injections. This stuff really works especially if you put it on at night before bed it works all day long the next day. I can't believe how well this stuff works. I had also shaved my arms just before using this and I think lacking under arm hair really allows it to work into the pores. Caution it'll burn after showering or shaving under there. But I think the burning is really letting you know it is working HAHA. Good luck to All!!!

Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 5

Certin Dri really works! I am a 32 years old female who had suffered from sweaty pits as long as I could remember. I had tried every clinical strength deoderant out there, none of them worked. I have always been stuck buying dark shirts to hide sweaty pits, or even hugging friends and relatives made me nervous for the fear that I would leave my sweat mark on them. I have been completely embarassed about my wet pits. I was apprehensive to buy certin dri because of the generic and cheesy commercial. But buying certin dri was my last effort to fix my sweaty arm pits. I followed the directions and it was like a miracle, it really worked!! There are a few downsides to certin dri, first because the sweat doesn't come out of the pits it finds its way out in other places, for me it was my forehead. but really I don't care cause its not under my arms, and after 20 some years of sweaty armpits sweat on the fore head wasn't so bad!! I can't explain how nice it was to go shopping and not have to buy a black shirt or a black dress just to hide the sweat. The other thing about Certin Dri is that you have to follow the instruction to the T. Not following the instrution causes burning under the pits. I made the mistake putting on certin dri right after my shower and it burned. The instuctions tell you not to apply right after a shower or shaving. And its not like regular deoderant so don't put too much on, because that will cause the pits to burn. When the instrution are followed correctly this stuff works!!!!!!!!! If you suffer from sweaty pits go get Certin Dri IT REALLY WORKS!!!!!!!

Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 3

I'm an 18 year old girl, and for the past couple years I have had the problem of sweaty armpits. It's so embarassing at school during the day, and I can't raise my arm all the way. I basically keep my arms glued to my sides! It's wrecked so many of my clothes, left yellow stains in my white shirts, and kept me from wearing actual colors. It was so terrible at my senior pictures last summer. I was so embarassed and humiliated because I had such huge wet rings under my arms! I tried Certain Dri and it itched like crazy!! I put it on at night and I could barely stand the itchiness and burning!! It helped a tiny bit, but not worth the itchiness and burning. So this week I am going to the doctor and getting a prescription for Drysol. I have read so many good reviews on it that I have to try it. I'm absolutely praying this works because I am going to college this fall, and it would be so amazing if I could leave my embarassing sweat marks behind me.

Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 5

I'm a 16 year old girl who has enough problems as it is, and sweaty armpits shouldn't be one of them. I can be a very skeptical person. I do not always trust reviews and I hate to get disappointed, as I'm sure everyone does. However, I went out and bought Certain Dri. It was very easy to find in Publix, right next to all the other deodorants. It was cheap- it was the roll on by the way. I used it the first night, and the next day I still had a little sweating. Not as much as usual, but then again I was in a house with no air conditioning, and I was wearing a thin abercrombie shirt. That night before I went to bed, I used it again. The following day I sweat in only one of my armpits and it was very little. I couldn't believe this was actually working! This is my third or fourth day using it and happens to be my first day of school. The greatest feeling was to go to school all day and come home with a dry shirt =) I'm sooooo thankful for Certain Dri. It's so easy. Just before you go to bed, roll some Certain Dri on and you're sweat free the next day. It is truly amazing. Give it a little time, but I promise, you'll be happy with your armpits and dry shirts =) Good Luck everyone!

Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 5

I've always bounced from one anti-perspirant to another hoping to find one that would really work but never being truly pleased. It wasn't so bad that I wanted to consult a doctor, but it was always an annoyance. As my wedding day approached, I started worrying about what I could do. Any time at all outside in a long dress with my underarms exposed, and I would smell! There would be so many people hugging me and would be grossed out. So... I posted the issue on The Knot, and someone recommended Certain Dri. My fiance had used it for years and swore by it. Its masculine packaging had always deterred me (stupid, I know), but I figured why not. I tried it and am 100% sold! Of course there were nerves, and it was so hot that day, but there was zero odor. I've used it since (granted, only three weeks), and it's rare I'm ever this completely satisfied. Since I don't doubt those who've posted it doesn't work for them, perhaps it does depend on body chemistry and works better for some than others. For me, it's been amazing. For others, I guess not. Thing is, it just might work for you, and it'll cost you under five bucks to find out. Oh, and my husband prefers the roll-on because he says you get more product for your money. He does admit it burns the first few uses (I did not experience that at all with the stick), but that is temporary. I prefer the stick because I simply don't like rolling something on wet. Good luck.

Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 2

I was so happy when i first bought this product! It hurt sooo bad when I applied it to my underarm. At first, it worked fanatastic, no more sweating. After a week though, i would apply it and I would still sweat. I would NOT recommend this product to anyone. People may say it works, but I am being honest nd saying that it doesn't. I heard maxim works really well... but I hate to continue to be spending money and I just want a true answer to what really works!

Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 5

I'm a 14 year old girl and for over a year I have had a problem with excessive underarm perspiration. I tried a lot of different remedies from clinical strength deoderants to even rubbing alcohol, nothing seemed to work! I was getting really upset and feeling quite insecure about it. I'm a very outgoing person and not much lowers my self esteem but I just couldn't live with my sweating problem anymore. My friend that also had this problem mentioned that she was ordering a product called "Certain Dri" and she would let me know if it worked. It did for her and it does for me! It works wonders, it's AMAZING. I am so glad that I can live a happy and normal life now without having to worry about sweat marks all the time. Certain Dri is an amazing product that anyone with excessive perspiration should buy. Thank you Certain Dri :)

Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 4

Certain Dri is good, but not good enough for me.

I have been over-sweating since puberty. I have found ways to deal with it, like wearing an undershirt all the time. Well my new work shirt is thin as tissue and even with an undershirt, the sweat was seeping through to the top. I looked into ways to deal with it, and I discovered Certain Dri.

Certain Dri works well, but not well enough for me. I am still sweating, and Certain Dri is just good enough to keep the sweat confined to my undershirt. I follow all directions, never applying it after a shower, and applying it right at bedtime. I have been using it for a week, and last night I forgot to put it on before bed. Now I'm totally screwed. It doesn't work unless you put it on at night. It doesn't work if you put other antiperspirant on over it. So if you forget to put it on one night, or are staying at a friend's house, or whatever, you're screwed the next day.

I'm going to talk to my doctor about Botox. I've heard it's expensive but it will be worth it to me if it works, and Botox doesn't make your life revolve around a stick like Certain Dri does.

I used the roll-on that comes in a box.

Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 5

I'm a fourteen year old girl about to go in to high school. For a little over two years now, I have had a very severe sweating problem. Every shirt I've ever put on for the last two years has been soaking wet with sweat. I've tried absolutely everything...from every antiperspirant to vinegar...you name it, I tried it. I'm also in glee club, I have a very strong passion for it, and sweating made it so hard for me because our dance partners (mine was a guy I have a huge crush on!!) picked us up by our armpits in sleeveless dresses. Can you imagine how horrible that was? I told my mom about my problem, but she was no help at all. One day, I was looking up solutions on the internet and I came upon a product called Certain Dri. I read the reviews about it on this website and I found that they were all good, so i figured what the heck...I'll give it a try. I've been using it for two weeks now and I'm so completely satisfied! All the reviews said it would burn and itch...but it doesn't...even after I shaved. I'm comletely dry, all day, every day. I can now go to glee practice with no worries! Thank you Certain Dri!

Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 5

Ever since I hit puberty I've sweated through every shirt I've ever put on, especially at school. I'm a senior in high school and I couldn't deal with the sweat stains anymore. I never smelled but my shirts would come home and would be soaked. I tried all "clinical strength" antiperspirants but none of them worked. I thought it was hopeless and then I tried Certain Dri. The first day it didn't work as well as I thought but after that it worked miracles. I haven't sweat through a shirt since and I'm able to raise my arms in class without worrying about anyone seeing the stains, since they aren't there anymore! It stung the first couple weeks but after that my underarms adjusted and it no longer bothers me at all. I use Arrid Xtra Dry in the morning just for a little added protection and to insure a good smell, but I've never been happier.

Certain dri is the best stuff ever invented.

Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 5

So . . . I am a teenage girl that has had HORRIBLE sweating problems for a couple of years. When I was in seventh grade, I started to realize that I was sweating really bad. I became very scared that everyone could see the sweat stains, and I started not even raising my hand in class. I soon figured out that I could just wear a sweatshirt and no one could see anything. And then, when I was in eighth grade, I was wearing a sweatshirt everyday, and my sweating problem seemed to get better, but not by much. Then, in ninth grade, (which is the grade that I'm in now) I started sweating through sweatshirts and it just totally freaked me out. I started wearing all black, and I was having to wear black sweatshirts because I was sweating through colored ones. And then, you were able to see the stains through the black! It was horrible. But then I started doing research and I was trying to use every kind of antiperspirant that I could, and nothing was working. I bought Secret Clinical Strength, (which was horrible because it was expensive, but I thought that it actually made me sweat even more). And then I got Certain Dri. I had read a lot of reviews on it, and people said that it burned like hell, but that wasn't going to stop me from using it. The first night that I used it, it didn't burn and I thought that it wasn't going to work. But, then it started to itch but I fell to sleep soon after that. The next day, I wore one of my shirts that you couldn't see any sweat stains through, but I didn't feel any wetness the whole day. I thought that I was going to sweat at one point because it was so hot at one point, but I didn't. I was SOOOOOOO happy. I haven't had the Certain Dri for long, and I know that there are people that say that it only worked for a couple of weeks and then just stopped, so I'm hoping that it's going to work for a very long time, but I still have to see. I would DEFINETLY recommend this to anyone that feels that they're in the same situation that I'm in. =]

Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 5

I tried all the OTC antiperspirants before I found Certain Dri. I was even considering botox to control excessive sweating. The very first day I used it, I had no more unsightly sweat marks. It did sting and itch a little, but the 15 minutes of discomfort I experienced were totally worth it! And, for around $6.00, it is cheaper than most other "clinical" strength antiperspirants. I wish I had found this product years ago. I can wear tank tops, tight t shirts, and light colored tops again! I do still wear a deodorant that I put on in the morning, but only for odor. I can't wait to go shopping now to replace all my dark and loose fitting tops!!!

Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 5

I can't stress enough how wonderful this product is. In 6th grade I started sweating SOO badly. As the months went on it got worse and worse. In 7th grade people started noticeing and pointing it out. I wouldn't even hug my friends because I'd have to lift my arms. In 8th grade I tryed every single womens deodorant there was. I went to Target, Right Aid, Walmart, King Kullen ect. I stopped wearing the shirts I like and wore sweat shirts.
This year (9th grade) I started sweating through those. It's extremly uncomfortable and irritating. I wore mulitple shirts under my sweat shirts and stuffed tissues under my arms. That didn't work. I started using mens deodorant. I tired, like the womens, every kind. People kept asking why I smelt like a guy. Those didn't work. I became extremly fed up and cried every night.

Two days ago my mom bought me Certain Dri, from The Christmas Tree Shop :P. I put it on and it BURNED and it ITCHED it was almost unbarable. The next day I wore a hoodie and didn't sweat through it. Today I wore a grey shirt, and I didn't sweat, I didn't have to. In the last two days I've almost changed. I can now hug my friends, I am more comfortable. Even though it's so painful, its a small price to pay. I have confidence in myself, and I can enjoy being a 15 yearold girl.

I cried today when I got home and realized I was able to have a NORMAL day. I haven't been able to move my arms that much in four years. If you have extremly bad sweating please use this ! It's AMAZING, and it's worth all the pain and itchyness.

REAL DIRECTIONS ON HOW TO USE CERTAIN-DRI



First, yes follow the directions:



-Use it at night right before bed, (don't shower that first nighte because skin can get irritated)

-Don't put too much on and don't put it on areas that don't have hair growing b/c those areas get irritated.



-Honestly I recommend you do this for the first time over the weekend, therefore you can prep your pits for certain-dri.

Step by step directions:





On Friday go home and take a shower, clean your arm pits well and make sure all the residue from the deodorant is removed. Now don't plan on going to a wedding or working out too much on Saturday - just take it easy and relax for the day DON'T use certain-dri yet b/c you scrubbed your pits pretty well the night before and it can irritate you more if you do it tonight. You'll probably smell but just take a shower and don't clean your pits let the water run through without soap. The next day same thing go through your day relaxed (this is sunday remember) and then at night you use certain-dri for the first time. This will allow for the product to work in the best b/c you don't have any residue and you have little chance for irritation. Now it will sting when you put it on...and it is usually an indication to stop b/c for me I can put it on without stinging but if I over do it on the role (and over doing it is more than 3 times for me - it will sting letting me know it got enough) then go to bed and let the arm pits air dry for a few minutes don't touch the arm pits with your fingers b/c it will get some on your fingers. I wish you luck here b/c for me I go through a lot of itchy ness that drives me NUTS but it is so worth it b/c I fall asleep and the next morning I'm good. Don't use naything on your armpits if anything just let the water run through them - now NO scrubbing, scratching!!! If the itchyness is really bad use some ice-cubs in a bag and place it there...that's it - believe me a few seconds of scratching satisfaction turns into hours of painful itchiness and redbumps. don't be scared this is a great product just use it the way I told you. And someone on here said "don't use it everyday" yeah for me it is every 3-4 days. But also if you aren't in an environment where you need this everyday don't use it as often, no one really knows the long term effects of Aluminum Chloride and the less of it the better I'm sure. Just think, of this product as musts for office meetings, weddings, and any stressful situations. For me I don't use it on the week days b/c I'm just home studying and going to the gym (in which I want to sweat) but come Friday night I use itthere is always botox on the pits for longer term non-sweat~!

Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 5

This is coming straight from my heart. I am absolutely relieved to have found a antiperspirant that actually works for me. I have tried everything: Ladies speed stick, arrid, arm and hammer, dove, mitchum both women and mens brand, adidas, degree, and crystal. The list is actually endless. I have suffered with terrible underarm odor for decades and had no cure in sight. I tried secret platinum and even secret clinical, degree clinical. I've spent seemingly millions on deodorant. This actually works. I've been using it for more than a month now and I have no more worries about checking my pitts throughout the day. I actually use the solid all day product that they have and it works perfectly. I swear that companies are skimping on their product because it makes no sense that I've had to suffer this long with no relief. If you've had the same problem that I have then definitely try this and you will be so glad that you did..... This is on everything that I love, it works miracles... Thank you Certain Dri.

Certain Dry is THE most amazing product out there. I had THE worst problem with sweating, it was really embarrassing, i would wear like 3 shirts and stuff tissues under my arms and it was just ridiculous. I wouldnt let guys anywhere near me. After only a couple days of using this, i was BEYOND happy! I think i even cried. I would HIGHLY suggest using this, I've used it for about 2 or 3 years now and you couldn't pay me to stop

If you can afford it, try Botox. It works great for 6-7 months. However, the expense of it is it's biggest down fall. I tried all those other products, Dri-Sol, Maxim etc and the irritation was simply not worth it. Luckily my insurance company covers most of it.

Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 5

I've been using Certain Dri for a week now, and here's my review.

Let me start off by saying that I'm a regular person who saw the CertainDri commercial and decided to try it out. I've always been skeptical of these reviews thinking they were just certaindri marketing employees writing bogus reviews. But after trying it myself I must say it works!

I'm a 26 year old male, about 6'1" 300lbs and obviously out of shape. I've been sweating a lot since I was about 15 years old. Even then when I was much thinner and in decent shape. Since then I've had to wear dark shirts. Always testing new clothes to see how much they show my underarm sweat. On an average day with little to no hard work I would constantly have sweaty pits. Keeping my arms to my side was the only way to hide it. And anything but black/dark blue/gray shirts were out of the question for me. It has really affected me for years...

The first day I bought Certaindri I put it on that night. I made sure to read the directions and didn't apply it right after a shower. It's a very weird consistancy for anti-persperant, almost like water, no smell. That night after about 30 minutes I had an itching sensation in both pits, not horrible but bothersome. The next day there was only a very very slight irritation, almost like your armpits being incredibly dry, but hardly noticable. But I had ZERO moisture in my armpits. It was amazing. Thats the first time in probably 10 years I've been through a day without constant wetness under my arms. I was skeptical that it wouldn't last and I'd be back to my normal sweetiness in a few days. I've used various "perscription strength" anti-persperants over the years, A few actually worked the first day but for some reason stopped after that and never worked again. I thought this would also happen with certaindri. That night I applied it again, but this time no irritation whatsoever. The next day was the same as the first, my clothes were dry as a bone thank god! I went three days without reapplying it and it continued to work, it was amazing. I didn't apply it again because it stopped working, I did just incase lol. Needless to say It's been alittle over a week since I started using it and it feels like a huge weight has been lifted off my chest. I haven't had this feeling or confidence in 10 years.

Buy this stuff. You will be as happy as me. It's expensive ($20) but you use so little it seems it will last 3 or 4 months. I can't believe I didn't find this stuff years ago. It's amazing to be able to wear any color or style shirt I want.

I have been using certaindri for almost 3 years and I absolutely love it!!! I had really bad underarm sweating since the 6th grade. After using this product for about 3 nights I no longer would sweat at all under my arms. I have no idea where I would be without certain dri. I can now wear any colored shirts that are as tight as I would like. Even when I am playing sports I sweat very little if at all under my arms. I would reccoment this to anyone who has a similar problem as I did...IT REALLY WORKS! Also, I have found if you do not shave your arm pits the same night you apply certain dri then you will not experience the burning feeling at all :)

Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 5

I have had really bad sweating problems since I started Jr. High. I get nervous a lot too which contributed to the sweating but I sweated no matter what. In cold or heat I would have huge rings. I was so embarrased! And then I tried all the clinical crap which didnt work and is way expensive. If I tried to apply deo throughout the day the deo scent would get so overpowering I was so paranoid. so i looked online and i found drysol, but you need a prescription and i knew my mom didnt think i needed it and it was so expensive. I tried my last resort and got certain dri. I was almost certain it wouldn't work but it does soooo good! I cant believe Ive been embatrresed all these years! go buy it now!!!!!

Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 5

This stuff definitely works, and I can't recommend it enough. I've had a pretty bad sweat problem under my arms for over 10 years, and the "clinical strength" stuff (I tried Degree and Old Spice) did nothing. It *maybe* decreased by sweating by 10 percent, but that'd be generous.

After some extensive research online I ordered DriSol - the most powerful anti-perspirant I'm aware of - from Amazon.com and anxiously awaited it's arrival. In the meantime, I'd read some good reviews of CertainDri, so I made a trip to Wal-Mart for a bottle, figuring I had nothing to lose.

Well, it works great. I've used it for about three weeks now and am very pleased. On a rare occasion, I can feel a little sweat build-up under my arms, especially on a stressful day at work, but overall, it's basically cured my problem.

I went back the next day and bought CertainDri A.M. to use in the mornings, mainly because it smells good and I figured it'd be a good backup.

Anyway, go buy this stuff. It's been a huge help to me.

Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 5

I am now 27 and I have suffered from the embarrassing sweaty pits problem since I was 13. I wish to God I would have found out about this product earlier in my life. My pits weren't extremely sweaty but they would get wet and have rings within an hour or so of putting on a shirt. It didn't matter if the room was cold or hot. I have been so frustrated. I just figured I would have to deal with this for the rest of my life.

Like most reviews I have read on here I stopped wearing light colors and I let my sweat dictate what I could and couldn't wear. Not any more! After just one use I noticed a big difference and on the second day I decided to wear the dreaded tight gray shirt. All of you know what I'm talking about! The one that shows your sweat as soon as you put it on. Well I am happy to report it was as dry as a nun's sex life. This product WORKS.

Nevertheless, be warned that if you can't take a little itchiness with application, then you should just continue with the sweaty pits. However, if you're willing to put up with a little burning and itchy then join the rest of us and break out those shirts you've been dying to wear!

Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 3

I started using certain dri about two weeks ago and it was working great until the other day. I was not sweating even the tiniest bit, which is amezing for me, and then it stopped working. I went to school and then noticed that before first period my armpits were already a little wet. I was really frustrated that it had stopped working. I even applied it the night before. I applied it again that night and the next day at school I was still sweating. It wasn't as bad as before I started using certain dri, but not NEARLY as good as it was a couple days before. I am a little worried that it is going to stop working for good, so if anyone has any suggestions PLEASE let me know.

thanks

Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 5

I bought Certain Dri recently. Today is my fourth day of using it and I'm very impressed. I'm not an excessive sweaty person, but certainly while getting ready for work would start to get sweaty in my armpits and throughout the day it just seemed to stay damp in my pits. That was bothersome, but the scent of it was even more bothersome because throughout the day I just muskier and muskier. Eww. Anyways, I bought Certain Dri to help clear up the wetness. Like I said--fourth day and am so happy. It's 2:12 in the afternoon and I'm dry. No wetness at all. There was slight itching the first evening for about 4-5 minutes but it went away and I've had no problem since.

I'm a mother of a ten year old that has excessive sweaty hands and feet. The hands even cause her to have trouble finishing work in school due to not being able to hold the pencil. My husband uses Certain Dri, and I wondered if I could use it on her when she sleeps. I've even purchased Certain Dri for feet but haven't tried it yet. I've been to doctor's about this and all they tell me is that she will grow out of it. Poor kid! Can anyone shed some light?

Certain Dry is great, as is Drysol. Drysol is 20% Aluminum Chloride solution, Certain Dry is 12%. The trick that works for me, as I have very sensitive skin is to apply it at night, leave it on for 1 to 2 hours, then wash it off. That way no staying up with burning and itching pitts. I hope this helps. I suffered with this problem till I was 45. Hope you young folks have as much success with this as I have, I am completely dry!

TRY THIS! I can't believe I never knew the solution could be so simple. I thought that the only way to avoid those big sweat spots was Botox, which is expensive, temporary and painful. Certain Dri worked the very next day after putting it on the night before. I tested it on my bright green Lilly Pulitzer polo which shows EVERYTHING. There was NOTHING to show. I've been using Mitchem Powder Fresh during the day just as added help to prevent any smelliness which might occur. I'm finally able to where bright colors and pastels...not just black.
Ugh! I wish I knew about this product before I pitted out the bridesmaids dress in my bff's wedding!
Also, I haven't experienced any significant burning, itching.

I have gave Certain Dri a try since i saw really good reviews on it. it has been itch'n soooo much but it didnt stop me from using it. I saw some really good results.. i sweat less but its not COMPLETELY dry...Do i have to use more of it so it would be COMPLETELY dry?

This product helps a lot...if you put on lots of it. =(
I definitely agree with CKGCK at night I can't fall asleep til about 1am. It burns!! One night it made me cry...if you like sacrificing your armpits for staying sweat free in your grey PE shirt go ahead but i have officially given this product up.

Amazing, if you check the review for maxim and drysol on this same site, you will also see the same feedback. So which is it really? Who is telling the truth? Consumers like me who are desperate for over the counter resolutions are just more confused :-(

Certain Dri (Anti-Perspirant) 5

I used Certain Dri about 2 years ago and it did what it said it would do. I did stop sweating and felt like things were going great. I did not have the burning feeling on my pits. I feel like I did obtain some side effects (I had never had these problems until I started using Certain Dri, and I'm not trying to say that the product caused them). I started getting nosebleeds (only from one nostril) and major heartburn. I feel like it may have "dried out" more than my pits. I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced other side effects, and what you did to cure them. I've gone to specialized doctors, but they have no reason what might be causing these symptoms to persist.

Certain Dri hurts like HELLLL.... it burns and itches so bad and keeps me from falling asleep at night because i have to dig my nails into my airpits to stop the pain! and secret clinical strength didnt work at all... certain dri does work, but for me it is hardly worth it... i would rather wear another shirt than hurt like this everynight...

certain dri worked for me for only a week, then it stopped working. drysol is a stronger version of certain dri, and works amazingly, the itching and burning hurts alot worse at first, but if your careful and balance shaving and waiting a couple days and then applying drysol, you wont itch. west coast skin sells it, i bought it from ebay from them, they are from canada, otherwise you need a prescription to use it

I just started using Certain Dri, and I already am seeing results. The only thing is that it has made my underarms sting a little bit, and parts have turned red. Is that normal? Should I stop using it?

I am a young adult and not even a teenager yet. I'm a girl that has excessive sweating and I'm really sick of it! I cry sometimes wishing I could wear shirts, and jackets that I don't sweat through! I have been wearing the same old jacket since last summer because my friend told me that it doesn't show the sweat. Ever since I've tried Maxim I've been sweat free! I was so happy that I've found it wishing for this day so long! Now i can wear long sleeved shirt, light colored jackets, and I can even dress in my P.E uniform for gym class!!! It is so unbelievable and I reccomend that you give this a try! It changed my life!

I love this stuff.. It is not easy being a female with sweat stains.. I have used it for 4-5 days now and on day 1.. it changed everything.. I am slowly feeling comfortable with being normal again and being able to lift my arms or wear any type of fabric.. for you guys who are wondering why you have to use it at night.. I read somewhere a long time ago that when you are laying down your sweat glands shut off.. so I assume it gives it a chance to do its job when you are not pouring sweat.

OMG!! I am a teen who has had problems with underarm sweating. I was looking on the internet and saw Certain-Dri. I have been using it about 2 weeks, and it has made an amazing difference. I used to only wear black shirts, them people at school started to call me gothic. I decided it was dedfinately time to do something. Certain-Dri has allowed me to wear whatever I want!! Please try it!!!

The ONLY thing that works for me. Should roll on like water......not like the sticky alternatives. Made me think it wasn't going to work at first. For me it took a good three nights of application to get the results I wanted. No more embarrasing wet underarms and stained shirts for me!! Walmart had the best price but even then still around six bucks. Although expensive it sure is a lot cheaper than replacing shirts as I have so often in the past. Directions state you can use on hands and feet as well.....might try that next spring when temps. raise again. Thank you Certain Dri!!

Very good anti perspirant but only if you follow the instructions. If you apply it in the morning and not bedtime (as recommended), you'll sweat through the day and stop only in the evening and not completely at that. Not so good if you bought it to use right away. Also works better if you use it every day. For me though, it starts to irritate my skin if I use it everyday so that's a big problem. Also doesn't help at all with body odour, sorry to say. And if you use a deodorant on top of it, you'll get red bumps, itchiness, irritation, you name it. So doesn't play well with others.

I've been using it for about three days now and the sweating has become a little better but has not gone away completely. Does it work better the more you use it?

After several years struggling with excessive sweat, I tried Certain Dri. I've only been using it a few days and the sweat is WAY better. Today at the end of the day, my armpits were almost completely dry. It has gotten better each day so I hope this continues. Don't let the high price of this stuff scare you away. It is worth every penny.
