For anybody that has this, is it a clear deodarant? And if not, does it leave white streaks on your skin after if dries? I want to be comfortable wearing sleeveless tops and not worrying about whether or not my deodarant is showing...
It's a roll-on. It's clear and seems to dry up well.. but like all roll-ons it's really liquid-y. Honestly, I got it.. I don't usually wear deodarant or ap. I just use it when I have an interview or meeting or something where I don't want to be embarassed for extra protection. I found that it wasn't has strong as drugstore ap's.. like to stop perspiration.
Honestly, I love the smell, but it doesn't really "do" anything. I think if I were someone who needed to wear d & ap everyday I would think that this was a waste of money.
My experience with Fresh Sugar Deodorant/Anti-perspirant is a really positive one. I have been using it for about a year now, and couldn't be happier with it. It does go on liquid, but drys quickly and clear. There are never any streaks on my clothes or white under my arms.
For me it lasts all day and through my 2+ hour workouts. I kid you not when I tell you I am drenched after a workout, except under my arms. No kidding; I even change everything, except my pants after my cardio for weight lifting, but never have sweaty pits.
But think about regular drug store deodorants/anti-perspirants; some work for some people and not for others. I guess it just depends on how your body chemistry reacts to the formula of the product.
My mom didn't find this deodarant to work well for her; she tried it and doesn't use it anymore.
I think it is definately worth a try. As far as splurges go $16 is a really small one, so if you didn't like it it's not like it would hurt the pocket book.
I've had a similar experience as Drew. I've tried many different deod/antip and this is the only one that works for me. Certain-Dri was to painful, always burned. Aluminum chloride (certain -dri) has more astringent to it, but aluminum chlorohydrate (fresh's) has more anti-bacterial action. So once it dries I stay sweat/smell free in my pits. I actually found that since certain-dri was sooo drying for me, I actually sweated more from my forehead and back, than I did before. Which makes sense since you can't regulate your temp via your armpits, your body sweats through other areas.... I don't find this happens with Fresh's product.
I just got mine and have been using it for about a week and love it! It keeps me dry and I love the smell. And no white residue and it dries fast. And I like that it isn't just an anti-perspirant but also a deodorant, that way if you do sweat a little it keeps you from being stinky
