SweatBlock Clinical Antiperspirant for Men & Women | Hyperhidrosis Treatment Wipes for Excessive Sweating | Block Sweat for up to 7 days | 10 Wipes

Of all the reviews I have ever left on Amazon, this one has to be not only one of the earliest postings after receiving the product, but also one of the most satisfying to write. I want to start off by saying that surprisingly, I don't sweat under my arms excessively, ever. In fact I don't really sweat under my arms at all. I can work outside all day and use some dollar store brand of anti perspirant and come away at the end of a hot day with at the most, a slight dampness under my arms. It's truly the only place on my body where I don't sweat. I wouldn't have any use for this product if that was the end of the story, but its not. My problem is sweating on the face and forehead. Even in a situation where it is rather cool and dry and everyone around me seems to be comfortably settled in with dry hair and faces, it at times can be pouring off me, sometimes relentlessly, for hours even. Anyone that has ever had such a problem well knows how embarrassing and unsightly this can be. Any "solution" to the problem in the past ran the gamut of stuffing my pockets with paper towels to just making excuses for not showing up for some event or whatever when you know its going to be unbearably hot. Over the years I have tried many drug store brands of so called super powered sweat controlling anti perspirants just to have them be relentlessly ineffective and a waste of money. It is, and has been a problem that I thought up till now had no solution. Then I discovered Sweat Block..Sweat Block, (SB) has been so effective for me for this problem that it almost qualifies as a miracle drug. In fact its only by the favor of excessive sweating never actually killing anyone that keeps it out of that miraculous category. SB is nothing more than some highly concentrated formula of aluminum chloride or something or other that is found in many anti perspirants. But trust me, the similarity ends there. They don't work,....This does, fantastically. The box comes with 8 sealed towelettes that are soaked with the formula that you tear open and dab on your skin. It's clear, near odorless, and dries in a jiffy. Just to get the facts straight, SBs instructions clearly state that it's for "underarms only". But after reading the dazzling reviews of this stuff here I just couldn't resist. I figured the worst that could happen is that I would lose $20 and end up looking like the sweating slob I always do under the mildest of conditions. From the very first morning after applying it, it was obvious that this stuff was as superbly effective as most of the glowing reviews here attest too. I simply stopped sweating, period. When pushed to the limit of activity or heat, a slight dampness or "sheen" would appear on my face that was not at all long lasting, nor embarrassing. I felt like a new man. I have been actually going out of my way to sweat and enjoying the dryness that I am so unfamiliar with. It is important that you use this product as described in the directions. Your underarms/head should be dry, and remain dry for at least 3 hours after application. (Which is the reason why they recommend applying it just before bed). Given these simple rules, I can only tell you this stuff is as effective and satisfying as anything I can ever remember purchasing in a personal hygiene category. As for being a renegade and using it on my forehead and face as opposed to my underarms, I can only tell you that personally I have suffered absolutely no tingling, redness, rash, or anything else detrimental with my alternative use. Despite Sweat Blocks explicit but simply stated warning that its for underarm use only, I feel compelled to recommend it to anyone that suffers such a problem as I do. (And I know I am far from alone with it). It's worth a shot and one time expense, I promise you.One last helpful hint. As stated already, SB comes in sealed packets as a moist towelette. I don't know if its that my forehead or face is smaller than a pair of underarms, or that I am just cheaper than the average Joe in trying to use the towelettes twice. But in any event, I have learned that dabbing my face with the pads and then just resealing the still moist towelette inside the packets again tightly with tape or a paper clip has afforded me double the use of each pad, with no reduction in its effectiveness. I simply tear open the packet, apply, reseal it, and then use the same towelette 5 days later and one box lasts near 16 weeks instead of 8. (Like a lot of others here, I like the 5 day rule of reapplication instead of the promised seven, just to make sure). This may not work for all people depending on how bad your sweating problem is. But for me personally, double use has just added an extra smile of satisfaction to an already stunningly effective product. This cost saving (cheap) test run on yourself may be very much worth trying as well. In conclusion, whether your problem with sweating is on your face or head, or just the sentimental favorite underarms, I give Sweat Block my highest recommendation. This product has been a Godsend to me, and it just may be to you too... : )

After trying every product I could purchase from the store (including but not limited to men's deodorant, women's deodorant, prescription strength "Certain Dry" and everything else in between), I finally turned to the internet in a last-ditch effort to wear any color other than black. I stumbled across this product and, although skeptical at first, I decided to give it a shot.Holey Sweet Drypits, Batman!All joking aside, this product is finally the first that actually worked, with good reason why. While most deodorant products contain 9-10% Aluminum Chloride at best, this product contains 14% (which is 2% more than Certain Dry). Granted, you have to follow the directions on the box specifically in order for it to work:1) Make sure your underarms are clean and dry. I used this product after I showered, but make sure not to shave right before or it will increase irritation (guys may need to clip their hair a little).2) Put it on just before bed. This is the key step because you want to put it on when you have at least a 4-5 hour period of no sweating.3) Walk around with your arms in the air until it drys completely.4) Go to bed. If you like to sleep nice and warm, try to at least turn down the heating blanket, lower the thermostat, or remove a few layers of blankets so you stay cooler at night; Otherwise you may just sweat off the product before it gets a chance to work.5) It will tingle and have a slight itch -- but this means it is working! I'm usually a light sleeper, but the one time that this itching did keep me up, I just took an ibuprofen tablet to block it out so I could sleep. No problemo, Amigo.Viola! Enjoy your ability to move your arms around, wear bight colored cotton shirts, and generally enjoy life again.Some notes from my experience directly:- You can get at least 3 uses out of each wipe if it is properly stored back in its original pouch, but by the 3rd use it is not as effective as the first time.- You can use this on your face (even though the directions say not to). I dabbed just under the corner of each of my eyes making sure NOT to get it too close where it could get INTO my eye. The next day my makeup did not run and make me look like a raccoon. Yay! Beware, however, that this product will make your skin extra dry, especially in sensitive areas such as the face. I would avoid using it on the face more than once a week.- Speaking of dry, I did develop a minor rash. I used the product several nights within the same week and after about the 3rd go, the back of one of my arms had a very minor, slightly pink, dry rash. Immediately cleared up with a little lotion. Just be aware if you paint outside the lines that more sensitive areas may dry out more easily. However, I have yet to develop a rash on my actual arm pit and I haven't had any issue since that first time. I would say this one is more my fault than the fault of the product.- The product becomes more effective with time. In my first week my sweating was so severe that, as the previous comment said, I had to use it three times to get the best effect. However, each week after that I only had to apply it on Sunday night to be fine for the rest of the week.- I still used deodorant each morning! Although the product helps with sweating, it does not help with smell. I am not a smelly person, but I have a lovely deodorant that helps hydrate and keep my underarms smooth. Plus it smells like citrus!- I run for long distances, and after using this product I did not sweat as heavily under my arms even after passing the 6 mile mark.- I mixed products. Although this product is the most effective, it is also the most expensive. If I ever had a week that was particularly stressful/athletic and I needed a minor mid-week boost in my sweat treatment, I used a little certain dry since I still had a bottle I previously purchased. Although it wasn't effective by itself, it seemed to work by being paired with Sweat Block.I hope this helps anyone who is interested in purchasing this product. Obviously, I highly recommend it and have given 5 stars according. I wish you the best of luck with your new sweat-free lifestyle.- The Artist Formerly Known as Sweaty

Worked on the first wipe. Follow the instructions. One underarm is still unruly but i am using the 4 day method. I've completely stopped sweating in one underarm. Reason for 4 star is i do have a bit of irritation. Otherwise 5 would be 5 stars
