Product Recommendation Request

It's not about vaginas, but it is about the female body.



Okay, I sweat. A lot. No, really, like a LOT. It seems that no matter what kind of antiperspirant and/or deodorant I use, my underarms sweat enough to leave visible marks on my clothing. As I don't want to live the rest of my life with my arms plastered to my sides for fear of being, to quote the now trite commercial, "unsure", I was hoping some of you might help me find an antiperspirant (or similar product) that actually keeps my underarms free of perspiration.

Standard brand names I have tried: Adidas, Arid, Arm and Hammer, Dove, Herbal Clear, Lady Mitchum, Right Guard, Secret (solid, platinum, etc.), Soft and Dri, Suave, Sure, Teen Spirit... and maybe some others I've forgotten.

Men's brand names I have tried (in case they're stronger): Arid, Mitchum, Right Guard. I refuse to wear Old Spice deodorant.

"Alternative" products I have tried: a mineral crystal (I forget the exact name), and Adidas Absorbing Deodorant.

I have also tried going without a deodorant or an antiperspirant. Unlike some members here, I did not sweat less.

Oh, and just to clarify: I don't have a problem with the smell of my underarm moisture, as it smells like whatever the deodorant smells like and not "body odor." As for the moisture itself, I just want there to be less of it.

Any suggestions you have would be appreciated.

My bestfriend uses prescribed deorderant and she sweats wayy less then what she use to. It works and is cheap (like 10 dollars).

Thanks. I'm considering asking about a prescription antiperspirant -- though before I posted this, I had no idea such a thing even existed -- but I'd like to try a few other OTC possibilities first.
