#CGG: Certain Dri Anti-Perspirant Review & Giveaway

Certain-Dri-Product-LineCertain Dri Anti-Perspirant

Certain Dri is the number one over-the-counter antiperspirant recommended by doctors for treating excessive perspiration. New to the Certain Dri line of antiperspirant products is Certain Dri Solid, equally effective and specially-formulated for those with sensitive skin. While other over-the-counter antiperspirants claim to be “clinical strength” and “waterproof” the Certain Dri formulations – 12% aluminum chloride and 25% aluminum sesquichlorohydrate -  are the strongest available, providing 72-hours of protection with each application.”

Certain Dri Solid Anti-Perspirant, although fragrance free, has a fresh clean scent and goes on clear. It’s different than traditional deodorants and anti-persirants because it is applied at bedtime rather than in the morning. It’s easy to use- simply apply sparingly at bedtime several times a week.

I have lived with hyperhidrosis since my high school years and during those years I used a prescription medication (Aluminum Chloride Hexahydrate) to control my condition. The only problem I have with Certain Dri is the fact that it took me so long to discover it. Certain Dri is a much more affordable option than expensive prescriptions; it has a much more pleasant smell; it doesn’t burn like prescriptions tend to do and Certain Dri really works!!

Most people will experience less sweating by just using Certain Dri several times a week. I found what worked best for me was applying the anti-perspirant immediately before going to bed. I applied it for five days during the first week of use. The second week and thereafter I apply every other night. I began noticing an improvement just three days after beginning Certain Dri. It’s long-lasting and keeps my excessive sweating a problem of the past. Certain Dri works better than any deodorant or prescription I have used and I absolutely love it!

Approximately 7-million adults and teens are clinically diagnosed with axillary hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) and over 40-million others find their perspiration to be a problem.  So, whether you have sweaty palms, sweaty feet, excessive sweating in your armpits, sweat dripping down your face, or even if you sweat profusely all over your body, Certain Dri has a complete line of products to keep you dry, cool and confident!

Certain Dri is available at most mass retailers nationwide. The average cost for Certain Dri Solid is $5.99.

Review: Stop Excessive Sweating With Certain Dri

Sweating is natural. It helps our bodies stay cool. But excessive sweating is more than just  embarrassing. It interferes with normal day-to-day activities and can restrict your wardrobe to certain garments.certain dri

Certain Dri is the leading dermatologist recommended product for controlling excessive  underarm perspiration. While other products claim to be “clinical strength”, Certain Dri contains the strongest available over the counter formulas, providing up to 72 hours of protection.

Certain Dri’s product line includes their original roll on anti-perspirant which contains 12% Aluminum Chloride, an A.M Underarm Refresher, a new solid anti-perspirant, containing 25% aluminum sesquichlorohydrate, and a variety of products in their new Certain Dri Feet Protection System.

I am no stranger to Certain Dri. I was diagnosed with hyperhidrosis in high school. I remember those being the worst years for me. I wore nothing but black – not because I wanted to but because I sweat so much black was the only color that came close to hiding my embarrassing condition. At that time, I would roll up toilet paper and tuck it in the fold of my underarm. As inconvenient as it was for me, I felt I had no option but to continuously change the toilet paper pads throughout the day.

I honestly wish I had knew about Certain Dri during that time.  Certain Dri Solid Anti-Perspirant has a fresh clean linen scent and goes on clear. This product is different than traditional deodorants and anti-persirants because it is applied at bedtime rather than in the morning.  

hyperhidrosis - excessive sweatingI found what worked best for me was applying the anti-perspirant  immediately before I went to bed. It took about three days before I started noticing a difference. After those 3 days, I literally stopped sweating.  Now, I just use the Certain Dri Solid Anti-Perspirant every 2 or 3 days.

Certain Dri Solid Anti-Perspirant works just as effectively as the prescription Aluminum Chloride. What is even better is Certain Dri is much more affordable than a prescription and will save you hundreds over a years time. The one suggestion I would make is to avoid applying Certain Dri immediately after shaving. While I have not tried to do this with the Certain Dri Solid, I have with the Certain Dri roll-on. It may cause burning and irritation, and the warnings on the solid do suggest avoiding application immediately after shaving.

Millions of people suffer from excessive sweating, while only a small percentage seek treatment. Certain Dri has changed my life. I no longer worry about sweating, I can wear any color clothing I choose, and I am no longer embarrassed to go out in public or raise my arms. Certain Dri is a great alternative to expensive prescriptions. Certain Dri should be used by people suffering from hyperhidrosis, but can be used by anyone.
