Certain Dri - Beauty & Cosmetics Message Board

eyeris · 06-06-2004, 10:50 PM

I use it and I really like that I don't sweat but I HATE the itching and irritation. I last used it on Thursday and my armpits finally just calmed down today and it's Sunday. Anyone have any helpful tips on how to prevent or at least minimize the itching and irritation caused by Certain Dri? I hate to give up on a great product that finally works to make me stop sweating profusely but I also don't want to walk around like a monkey all day scratching my pits all day!!!

I agree, it totally works. But the irritation blows. When do you use it? It stings more after shaving, showers and mornings for me. I use it at night only and just a little. Right before bed. And then i don't need anything during the day.

Can it stop working for someone? I've been using it for a while and it worked great for a long time but recently it seems it hasn't been working as well... I've had the same bottle for a few months- does it go "bad" after a while or what?

Yes, it can stop working because that happened to me too. It has nothing to do with the bottle being old. I think your body gets immune to it. So, i switched to Dove for a few weeks and went back to my old bottle of certain dry and it worked again.

I love the Dove too.

maybe your allergic to it or have sensitive skin. the only time it did that for me was the first few times i used it or if i put it on after i shaved. the stinging only lasted for like a minute though.
