As a college student I am often running around from location to location and too often the unsightly sweat patches can appear. In my search for a fix to this problem, I stumbled upon a Over the Counter pharmaceutical product 'Driclor'.
'Driclor' is unique in that is not targeted at a specific demographic - it is scentless which removes the clash of smells that can come from several other forms of anti-antiperspirant such as Triple Dry or Dove.
It is also not a traditional anti-antiperspirant; rather than applying on the go, you apply it at night and wash off in the morning with a further application of your commercial products.
Primary ingredients: Aqua; Aluminum Chloride; Alcohol
After using this for 2 weeks I have noticed a significant improvement; sweat patches under-arm are almost non existent and confidence is certainly boosted in social situations where close contact is expected such as the college class or at gathering.
The downsides: I wouldn't recommend this for someone with sensitive skin or pre-existing skin conditions. Consultation with a trained medical professional may be needed prior to using this product.
Value for money: For £6 ($10) there is enough of the solution to last for quite some time with application needed once every few days after the first week. It also allows for the user to keep their other products which, for myself, would be old-spice and Lynx body sprays.
Best combined with: This product can be combined with all other pre-existing products, however to pay attention to any skin irritation as Driclor is extremely powerful.
Where to buy: Larger cosmetic pharmacies such as Boots; online at Amazon and in many supermarkets.
Overall rating:
4/5 with a loss of a point due to the lack for sensitive skin users to fully enjoy
