odaban antiperspirant deodorant, clinical strenght & protection, deodorant for men & women for excissive sweating, fragrance-free 1 oz (Pack Of 1)

I have dealt with facial sweating for all of my adult life. Typically triggered by stress but also just out of no where, physical exertion and of course hot weather! It’s very embarrassing and the thought of others watching my face dripping with sweat would just make the problem even worse. I had a summer wedding to attend and unfortunately it was being held outdoors. I just knew the combination of my makeup and sweat was going to be a disaster, but I tried the Odoban and IT WORKED!!! Now please be aware, this DOES take a few applications to “build up” in the area that you have the excessive sweat. Use it at night, on clean, dry skin. For my facial sweating, I found the best way to apply is: to put on a disposable glove, very lightly spray 2-3 times on the tip of my pointer/middle finger and then to dab my face in the problem areas. Remember you just want to dab a very small amount, because it does itch. I have found that if my face gets really itchy after application, putting a bit of baby powder over the area helps. In the morning, I was my face as usual. Again, you will need to apply this a few times, at night, in a row to get the full effect. At this point, for me, I can do one or two applications in a row, every month to 1.5 months. I hope you try this and I really hopes this helps you stop the sweat!!

I am a physician who would come home after a long-day's work with my undershirt and dress shirt soaked under the arms. I had been using the Mitchum PowerGel with 25% aluminum sesquichlorohydrate. This is the highest percentage of active ingredient I could find in an anti-perspirant. However, this was not effective in controlling the wetness. In fact, before I would leave for work in the morning, my shirt would already begin to feel wet. At the hospital, I was embarrassed to raise my arms and was self-conscious of the excessive amount of wetness present. This has all drastically changed with Odaban, an English anti-perspirant with 20% aluminum chloride in a spray dispenser. I was determined to find a more effective product than I was previously using, so I searched and I found numerous excellent reviews regarding Odaban. I have been using it for only three days and the results are dramatic. The product's application instructions are a bit unusual for an anti-perspirant, but it works. It is only to be used at night prior to going to sleep, with one spray to each area (in my case, under the arms). In the morning, the area is washed. Now, the first time I used this, my shirt was pretty wet the next day and I was not impressed at all. However, the instructions say that it could take up to a week of nightly applications before the sweating is under control. So, the second night I sprayed twice under each arm to see if this worked better. It is OK to apply twice in an area if needed depending on each person's situation. I washed off in the morning and my shirt was totally dry the whole day. It really is amazing. And you don't even have to apply another product in the morning after washing. But, if you want to, it is OK to use a deodorant. It has no effect on Odaban's performance. After a week, the nightly applications are supposed to diminish to only 1-2 times per week if the wetness is controlled. I am still in the first week period of nightly applications, and thus far, this product has been fantastic. I would highly recommend this to anyone, without hesitation, who excessively sweats and the "regular" products available seem to have no effect. Chances are, this will.

Bought it for palmar hyperhidrosis, based on a recommendation from a group on the internet for such. Tested it for 2 nights as a substitute. The first day after, I was unclear if it was working, or if drysol was wearing off. Continued testing it the 2nd night. The effectiveness was less than if I was using drysol either one or two nights. Drysol's patented anhydrous solution of ethanol continues to seem to be a major differentiator from other products, even with 20% alum chloride. Bit of a disappointment.

I was using sweat block wipes for several years before trying this odaban product. This works every bit as well and while it doesn't smell all that great before bed it's no worse than sweat block which adds a cloves type of smell to mask it. Anyway the product itself works well but the three issues I had are 1) expensive, 2) the spray bottle stopped working properly even with several ounces still remaining, it all but stopped spraying, and 3) be super careful with the spray bottle's aim, there's really little to indicate the actual direction of it, particularly in dim lighting conditions before bed for example when I was applying it underarms, the nozzle is white on white and recessed, it's also small enough to where a minor change in the aim may find yourself wishing you had left your glasses on. It may be worth it to buy a different spray bottle for this and transfer it. Edit: I did repurchase this product but picked up some JJUNW 4 PCS 50ml bottles with the rollers in them to apply it under the arms before bed. I feel like that's a superior option vs the spray bottle.
