    I've lurked here for a bit, and I know Miss Kiwi had an article on this a little while back.

    I never really had an issue with Dove, but twice in the last week or so it seemed to fail, so I want something a little stronger.

    Suggestions needed, thanks in advance!

    There is some new "clinical strength" variety by Secret, but I've never tried it.


    I like Dove cashmere myself.

    I like degree, but for my July wedding, I have a feeling I'll be applying more than once. So also remember to pack some in the Day Of Kit.

    Okay - NO LAUGHING, I have prescription deodarant called Drysol. They have little to no problem offering an Rx for it if you go in and ask, especailly if you tend to be a bit "overactive" from time to time with the sweat. But I must warn you the first time you use it it can be a bit "pricky" in your pits. (You put it on at night and let it work in your sleep) Sometimes the day after you can have a little redness, but in the end it's SO worth it. I just don't wear a tank the next day - easy peesey.

    On the plus side, I don't sweat through ANYTHING for like 4-6 months! Normal deodarant for daily use for "that fresh smell" and no sweating. Also, with how little you use it - no medial issues either... 

    There is another one you can get called Dri Off Gel, but you have to apply it daily, and it's more like those clear gel deodarants and waiting for it to dry take forever, plus I've found it doens't work as well as the first.

    Certain Dri.  It's prescription strength but you can get it at drugstores.  No scent, liquid roll-on, works like a charm.  I even read that some people who have excessive oil/acne problems use it on their faces.

    Certain Dri worked for me too. Just test it out a few times before the wedding to be sure you don't get overly dry skin or a rash. I heard a few people got red splotches from using it, and you don't want that on your wedding day!

    I have been using the clinical strength by Secret for about 1 1/2 months.  It is the best one I have ever used and I don't think I will ever try another brand again.  I have not been worried at all that it was going to fail (even when in situations that I know my prior brand would have).  It goes on clear and I have not had a problem with it leaving marks on any of my clothing or having skin irritations.  I would give it a try.

    I heard a bunch of really glowing reviews for an antiperspirant by Kiehl's that apparently works like a charm.  I haven't tried it yet, but was convinced by the fans to make sure I try it out before my wedding.  I have 11 months to go still so haven't gotten to it yet but it might be worth a shot.
