Product Reviews of Certain Dri Anti-Perspirant, Roll-On, Prescription Strength, 1.2 oz.
Product Review: Freedom!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've had problems with sweating for about four years now, and it's made me feel extremely self-conscious. My entire wardrobe changed to accomodate the problem so that I wear loose, baggy, dark sweaters over tank tops to best hide the sweat rings. I've tried men's deodorant, many types of women's deodorant, and Degree Clinical Strength, all to no avail. I decided to buy this product so that I could (hopefully) go to prom and not have to worry about hiding sweat stains. And I'm in love. For the first time that I can remember, I have not sweated at all. I tested the effectiveness by wearing shirts that cause me to sweat a lot and I've stayed completely dry. I was skeptical at first, but this is an amazing product and after two days I am already sure that I will make sure to never run out. I feel so much better already! As far as the itching and burning, there was a little bit the first night, but not too bad, and then the second night there was none at all. This is a fantastic product!!Product Review: GREAT PRODUCT! BUY IT AND BE HAPPY!

I BOUGHT THIS PRODUCT BECAUSE I WAS DESPERATE ON MY SWEATING PROBLEMS. I USED THE PRODUCT AND FROM THE FIRST NIGHT I USED I STOPPED SWEATING. I APPLIED THE PRODUCT ON MY UNDERARMS AND SWEATING WAS CONTROLED FOR ABOUT 50 HOURS AND EXCESSIVE WORK. YOUR UNDERARMS WILL BE ALWAYS DRI. BUT OTHER PARTS OF THE BODY, LIKE FOREHEAD WILL SWEAT MORE. ANYWAY, I PREFER TO HAVE SWEAT ON MY FACE THAN ON MY UNDERARMS.Product Review: Gave me the worst ALLERGIC reaction
Summary: 1 Stars
When I first read the reviews for this product, I thought this could really work. My dermatologist had prescribed a similar product before and I figured this would be a good OTC alternative.
When I got the product I applied it for 3 nights in a row. After that my hands and feet were completely dry. I thought it was heaven and it gave me so much more confidence. I used it a couple of more nights and at the same time I started having a severe allergic reaction. My whole body started severely itching and I broke out in hives in a lot of different places. I went to my doctor who tested everything and couldn't find a reason for the severe itching. I was in severe discomfort from the itching for about 2 - 3 months!!!
I didn't make the connection to the deodorant until this week. I hadn't used the deodorant ever since the initial couple of applications. But I did put it on my hands again last week. My itching had just started to subside and I was so relieved. But after putting the deodorant on again the severe itch has returned.
I started to search through all the different reviews of Certain Dri to see if anybody else experienced a similar reaction and lo and behold another reviewer experienced the exact same thing!!!!! I also have to add that I am not particular sensitive to allergens. I have no other known allergies. But this was one of the worst experiences in my life. PLEASE USE THIS PRODUCT VERY, VERY CAUTEOUSLY!!
Product Review: Gets rid of wetness
Summary: 5 Stars
This is absolutely wonderful to get rid of wetness. Be warned though, for some people (me included) it makes your underarms itch slightly--they don't break out with a rash or anything, just get itchy. But as far as for wetness, this works like a charm. I had horrible wetness under my arms, used certain dri for about a month and it went away...now I only use it once a year if I start getting wetness again. Super product!Product Review: Give it a chance-- It Certainly kept me Dri! (Haha...)
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm 12 years old, and sweating runs in my family. It isn't hyperhydrosis or whatever, but all of the girls on my dads side sweat a LOT. I mean... A lot lot. And then they mysteriously grow out of it around the age of 14. I started sweating like this about 6 months before I turned 12. I know, I know-- I'd grow out of it soon, but going 2 full years with the most embarassing sweat marks ever seemed unbearable, because I already get teased a lot because I wear a lot of black (NOT JUST TO HIDE PIT STAINS!)... Kids call me goth and stuff. I really don't care, but I still get teased a lot, which eventually turns into being called ugly and fat. (Funny how most people who call me fat weigh like 200000 pounds more than me, and I barely weigh 90 pounds, but that's another story) I didn't need 'sweaty' added to the list! So I was reading a lot of stuff about deoderant and sweating, and by chance found an article on Certain Dri. I picked my bottle up at Walgreens, but I'm pretty sure you can find it at grocery stores like Sentry and Pick N' Saves, too. I don't know where to get this outside of the U.S... Sorry.
I put it on before bed. I shower at night, but I left a few hours in between time. Anyways, I expected minimal results. There was some tingling and burning, but it wasn't anything unbearable. I went to school the next day, fully armed with a hoodie in my locker so if Certain Dri, like so many others (Sure, Secret, Secret Platinum, Arrid XX-tra Dry--So called twenty four hour protection. Pffft--, Adidas-- Adidas makes EVERYTHING... And, just like their shoes and perfume the deoderant sucks unless you barely sweat-- Degree--To their credit, it doesn't leave any white marks. Just pit stains.--, and some others I probably forgot) would fail me. For the first half of the day, I felt no sweating. Just after lunch, I started sweating a little, mainly because the class I have after lunch is very warm and the teacher never opens a window. There were very light, quickly fading pit stains, nothing you could notice!
The next day, it got better. There was a little, tiny stain the size of my pinky fingernail (In other words, barely half an inch) on my shirt. And the day after that, there was nothing at all, even when I was in my stuffy, muggy Tech. Ed classroom. (I don't even like Tech Ed, but we have a juinor high- grades 7-8- instead of a middle school- grades 6-8-, so we don't pick our electives this year) I haven't been visited by the Pit Stain Pixie since. I guess if you stuck me over a boiling cauldron for a while, I would sweat a bit, but you get the point.
If this product doesn't eleminate all of your sweating at once, be patient. I know a friend and it took almost a week for her to have the same results I had in 2 days.
Some tips-- Never, EVER EVER scratch if it tingles or itches or burns! That messes it up, big time. I scratched once and it didn't work as well for that arm as it should have for a few days. Some people mess it up so bad by scratching it NEVER works AT ALL for that armpit again.
Don't put it on just after shaving. I guess something in your pits is a little more open, but it burns more than usual.
Don't be discouraged if it doesn't work instantly! It will, eventually, unless your underarm is holding the Pacific Ocean back from California or something.
For some reason, if you put it on RIGHT (not even two hours after) after showering, it doesn't seem to work well at all.
Put on regular deoderant in the morning, especially if you have odor problems. This does NOT stop odor. At least put some perfume on-- no one likes smelling, and no one likes smelling someone who smells.
I hope this works for you like it did for me!
