Deodorant and Anti-persperant? Is this item only a deodorant or is it an anti-perspirant to control sweat as well?

It is only a deodorant, therefore you still have the wetness issue. If you are wearing any type of blouse that shows wetness you will still see those wet stains. You just will not emit an odor.

I can't remember as I bought it a while ago, but it is by far the best most effective deodorant ever... That's why when I couldn't find it in stores anymore I bought it on line

I am sorry I do not know the answer to this question. I can definitely say it removes biological smells, so if human-produced odors are an issue, it should remove those. Not sure about the actual ingredients in antiperspirants, if that is what you are referring to in your query!

This is a natural body deodorant and its really great, this product minimized my body odor to zero and no more sweaty armpit. I am really happy with it.

Nope. Once you apply the deodorant it stays on you and not your clothes. I have been using this product for 4 months now and have yet to have an issue with staining or discoloration of my clothes.

Well, chemically speaking it's not organic, it's a salt (organics contain carbon chains). Alum salt - or to use the correct chemical terminology, potassium aluminum sulfate - is a naturally occurring mineral that has antibacterial properties and a low allergy risk. Unlike the aluminum chloride salt found in antiperspirants, it doesn't plug up sweat glands. This means it's not an antiperspirant. However, since it kills the bacteria that grow in the sweat, it helps control odor.

in my experience this is the most benign deodorant out there. It's like a stone or rock. Just wet it, roll it on, and it dries almost immediately. No stain that I know of, at least partly because it's totally dry.

I apply when my skin is warm right after my shower. It does go on white (zinc i think?), but by the time I blow dry my hair and am ready to get dressed it has absorbed mostly. I also lightly powder. Mainstream deodorants stained my skin and this was allowed that to dissipate. I also don't go sleeveless so not an issue. If you do go sleeveless, apply the day before?

I don't believe that it is. It has some anti-bacterial properties but I see no ingredient that would prevent perspiration. I will not purchase this particular item again since it is inferior to the classic.

Mine did not sweat. I would contact Jarrow and complain. If it came with a dessicant in it, and you chose to remove it, you may have caused the problem. Many supplements nowadays come with a dessicant pod in it, such as many vitamin D gelcaps.

Thanks buddy I would have never known! Thank you!Below is what research I just found... disturbing...Reduced heart function by 25%endocrine disruption (bad for the skeletal system)Triclosan is clearly listed on product ingredient labels, so you can easily check to see if it's there before deciding on a purchase.

Yes! I just want to make sure you do know that this deodorant is for night time use. Put it on at night, before you go to bed & preferably (not necessary) after you have showered or bathed at night time. That way, you are clean when you apply it. They do have a daytime version, but the daytime version is really just as a refresher & does not accomplish anything with regards to helping you to stop perspiring. If you apply this at night time, then you can apply whatever you want in the morning. I use my regular girly smelling deo in the morning. They work great together.

Hi I am a sweat machine also and it has worked for me so far. They even recommend spraying it before hand but not necessary for me since I sweat a lot.

It doesn't stain my clothing. I apply at night as directed, and then I take a shower in the morning, which would wash off any residue from the product, so clothes don't get stained. However, it worked its magic at night, so I don't sweat or have body odor issues after the shower. I use this about every other day, and I don't use any other product to control sweat or odor.

I use it sporadically after the initial 7 nights and my skin will burn slightly if I use more than I need. The stuff works great but our bodies are different, so use it as needed comfortably. I do apply deodorant as well just for the scent and piece of mind but sparingly.

I would not recommend it as a deodorant because it is not designed for that purpose. It is a mild smelling product that does help you keep dry - for example I have used it during humid weather - and it makes you feel fresh and comfortable - takes away that "sticky" feeling. I do not think it would have any lasting effect as an underarm deodorant however I have used it underarm as a drying agent after showering and towelling off.

I do not sweat under my armpits with this product. HOWEVER do not apply large amount because it will rub off on your shirt.
