This is about the best antiperspirant you can get without a prescription. At very nearly prescription strength (19% vs 20% gly prescription), this is the real deal and much cheaper and easier to obtain in comparison. This deodorant basically changed my life, love it. One type for use which I no longer use myself but did for about a year when I first started using this. This is a process I learned somewhere for use of prescription deodorant for users who have extreme sweat problems: 1) Take a shower before going to bed rather than in the morning 2) Completely dry off your armpits before applying the deodorant (very, very important!) -- this should be air dry, not just towel dry. They must be absolutely bone dry. 3) Assuming the stick has already been "started", click the wheel three times (no more!) for each armpit 4) Rub into the armpit until the solid has turned _completely_ transparent 5) Allow your armpits to air dry again. (also very important) 6) Sleep in a cold bedroom if you can to prevent yourself from sweating again 7) Apply only one or two clicks of antiperspirant when dressing in the morning (don't take another shower!) After awhile you should be able to eliminate steps and switch back to morning showers (at least based on my experience). The key is to try the process completely from top to bottom for at least a week. It's important that you are aware of your own body and how it responds to heat, moisture, etc. and how it interacts with the antiperspirant and this takes time and focus to determine. Read more
Like my title says, I'm a sweater. Most gels and clear products don't work. Solids are hit or miss usually. No matter what I've used in the past, I always had pit stains even with an undershirt. The other day I was talking with some friends and I leaned back and put my hands behind my head and then got all nervous realizing that I always have sweaty underarms - took a look and all was clear. I then realized that since I switched to these Old Spice joints, I haven't seen wet underarms. I've had multiple women tell me they like my cologne even though I'm only wearing this stuff. My girl even comments how my laundry doesn't reek anymore when she's doing the wash. Don't put on too much at first - get a feel for how much you need. Every now and then my pits itch, but always dry and smelling nice is worth it. Read more
A bit pricey, but worth using. Has worked well over days . Read more
These are "semi-liquid" antiperspirants. You twist the dial at the bottom and a small amount of the thick liquid will be pushed through a perforated cap. This works FAR better than the solid Old Spice and doesn't stain my shirts. Good price. also, it has been very difficult to find in the stores locally. Glad I was able to buy it in quantity on Amazon. Read more
I've been using this deodorant for years and there's a reason for that. I get better results from this deodorant than any other brand. Back in high school, I tried every brand known to man and all of them failed. Old Spice has always given me a better product with better results. No, it's not perfect and I do perspire and sometimes the perspiration mixed with the deodorant doesn't always create the best smell, but all of the other deodorants do that and they do it faster. Overall, I've been extremely happy with this deodorant and I will continue to use it until something better comes along Read more
Old spice. Seriously, listen to your (once) loyal customers. You have made a terrible mistake changing the formula on these soft solids- this was the only deodorant I used for the last 10 years and it was a beautiful relationship we had. Now it sitcks to pit hair and rips it out, clumps and doesn't go on well, and smells way too strong and actually somewhat caustic vs prior formula to the degree that I can't wear it in the hospital where I work because the sent is overpowering. I am switching to other brands that don't harm my pits until you figure this out. I thought I was going crazy and was the only one who noted this change- unfortunately not.. Please, bring back the prior formulation. Read more
My husband and I (yep, no frilly floral deodorants for this chick) have both used this deodorant for at least 5 years. The "pure sport" is fairly unisex, and does a great job for both of us in controlling odor and sweat. We do use different amounts - he loads it on (2-3 clicks per arm) and I use 1 click. Love that it's a soft solid - I prefer a more liquid product but I hate aerosols and gels take too long to dry. Took off one star because I think they have changed the formula recently - the old one had a clear cap and wasn't as strong smelling. The new red-capped version is too strong IMO. Will keep using it till I can find something better though. Read more
I went through a lot of deodorants before finding this gem. The scent exudes manliness. Sometimes I have to fight my wife off of me just so I can get out the door and go to work...we do have children to support! I've found that the stick type deodorants leave a pretty thick residue that gets on the clothes easy. The clear gel types take awhile to dry and really stain the heck out of clothes. This powder application is great. You don't need too much of it. It goes on easy and dries quickly. Just beware of how the masculinity will ooze from you...it can be dangerous. Read more
