Carpe Underarm Antiperspirant and Deodorant, Clinical Strength with

I ordered this product online. My underarms tend to sweat quite a bit, which is uncomfortable and embarrassing! So I'm always on the hunt for a good proper antiperspirant. That's when I stumbled across carpe! I took a chance during a sale and got a few sticks. It is more of a creamy product and it does take a while to dry. In the cold of the winter time this may suck after being fresh out of a warm shower 😂 however, it works beautifully. Definitely recommend applying it as advised by the company, which is twice a day (once after a shower, then once first thing in the morning). It definitely works the best that way!

Actually Life-Altering

My sweat has always reacted with aluminum-- at least the common salts in most deodorants-- to create really pronounced black marks on any shirt that wasn't black or gray. To avoid this, I switched to aluminum-free for several years, and tried at least 6 different aluminum-free deodorants. They'd stop working after a few weeks, the texture was never dry, and I'd sweat them off before the end of the day. I work in fitness, so I sweat throughout the day, and none of the aluminum-free options I tried could remotely keep up. It was the worst on day when I'd go from work to college, realize all the deodorant I'd put on that morning was stuck in the pits of my work shirt, and spend my whole class worrying I smelled bad and avoiding raising my hand.

Carpe deodorant lasts through hours of coaching and doesn't need to be reapplied before I go out after work. The craziest part is that there are no aluminum/sweat marks on my clothes-- for some reason the specific Aluminum Sesquichlorohydrate form that Carpe uses doesn't have any weird reaction with my body at all. The only "downside" I've experienced is that I had some very minor skin irritation after applying every day & night, so I switched to every day & every other night.

Beyond shocked

I wish I could add pictures to my review, but sadly I can’t. I have only used the fresh powder antiperspirant for 2 days now, and it is already surpassing my expectations. I am a college student, and today I had 2 exams and 1 presentation. Normally I am super anxious and sweat through several shirts on these kinds of days. Not today. I have been wearing the same shirt since 8am and there are no visible sweat spots on my shirt (I even boldly wore a grey shirt to really see how good the product worked). I was sweating everywhere else because I have really bad hyperhydrosis in my hands, feet, and underarms (but it seems now the underarm is no longer an issue thanks to Carpe). I just might have to buy the stuff Carpe makes for the hands because I am beyond impressed ... MoreI wish I could add pictures to my review, but sadly I can’t.

Changed My Life

It's hard to even put into words how much this product changed my life. I have never been able to wear tight shirts because I always sweat so much -- hot, cold, no matter how much antiperspirant I wore, I would sweat through shirts. I basically had to stop buying anything except for black loose tops so that I wouldn't have to deal with the embarrassment. I was strongly considering botox in my armpits but that kind of freaked me out. When I got targeted ads for Carpe on instagram I rolled my eyes at first thinking it was another gimicky item but I did a bit of research and read the reviews and I thought, "ok, it's only $20. I'll give it a shot and worse comes to worse I just use this deodorant that doesn't work better or worse than any other deodorant I've used".

Disclaimer: It's only been two weeks using this deodorant, but I'm in total and complete shock at how well it works. It's like a weight I've been carrying for my whole post-pubescent life has been lifted off of my shoulders. It's winter where I am so I haven't tried it out in excessive heat but I used to sweat through all my clothes even in the dead cold so this is a HUGE win for me! I can come to the office and not have to put paper towels under my arms! No stains, no discomfort. I am so so so grateful for this product, recommending it to everyone I know.

Finally Something with Results!

I sweat excessively, but never went to a dermatologist to specifically get it addressed. I've gone through my own sweat journey with my PCP and a bunch of Googling! I self-diagnosed myself because, like - duh! - it was way obvious that I sweat way abnormally compared to the average person and even my own family members - breast/chest, thighs, but especially face and underarm have always been the worst! I've tried all kinds of antiperspirants and deodorants (until a little into my sweat journey I realized deodorants only work for the odor and not the sweat), but nothing would work long term or there would be very visible residue like little white chunks under my arms which is so not attractive. I saw an ad on Facebook for Carpe and it seemed to good to be true. I was ... MoreI sweat excessively, but never went to a dermatologist to specifically get it addressed.

I saw an ad on Facebook for Carpe and it seemed to good to be true. I was like, yeah, whatever, and I totally dismissed it. But a few weeks later during a regular visit to my PCP, I casually asked her if she'd heard of Carpe and what she thought of it (btw she's not a dermatologist, just a regular family doctor) and she had nothing but praise for Carpe! Previously, this same doctor had given my glycophorrate (spelling?) to take to control my sweating which honestly really worked fine, but I just didn't like the idea of having to add yet another pill to my daily regimen so I wasn't keen on keeping this up. But hearing the doc's words about Carpe plus having seen the FB ad and reading a few testimonials on the Carpe website, I was like what do I have to lose? Fast forward to now and I am so glad I tried it out. I first only ordered the underarm lotion (which I'm not sure how that differs from the antiperspirant stick??) and the face sweat absorbing lotion - my two biggest problem areas, and I noticed a difference within just a few days! The underarm lotion was actually lasting through the day which had never happened before. No pit stains or embarrassment, and I actually kind of liked the original, clinical kind-of scent. As far as the face product, wow! - no more having to set up 6 fans in front of me on the bathroom counter as I apply my makeup in the mornings! My makeup would sweat off before I'd even left the mirror. It had gotten to the point where I'd just stopped applying makeup altogether because there was no point; it would all sweat off within an hour of application. However, with the face lotion my makeup has been lasting ALL day! And it doesn't feel sticky or cakey or anything. I just wait for it to dry completely, and proceed with my foundation and everything else. Bottom line, both the underarm lotion and the face lotion have been gamechangers for my day to day routines! I recently placed another order for more underarm and face lotion of course, but I also added the underarm wipes for those high pace days the lotion still can't quite keep pace with my sweating. I'm looking forward to it! Unfortunately, I saw the face wipes after I'd already placed my order, but maybe I'll try those next time too! Thank you Carpe! I wish I'd discovered you all YEARS ago instead of my late thirties!!!

Holy Cow...This Actually Works

I have been struggling with sweaty pits for as long as I can remember. I've tried countless brands of deodorant all claiming to help, but when you have to apply a stick of deodorant 3-4 times a day just to not feel self conscious...the deodorant isn't working. I was very skeptical of Carpe, but they were running a promotion and I figured I'd try it out. Holy cow. I was actually shocked as to how quickly I noticed a difference. I could go play golf in 100 degree heat with hardly any sweat in my pits and still smelling fresh! I work a fairly laborious job, and I can apply Carpe knowing it'll keep me smelling clean and feeling dry in the pits! If you have a problem with sweaty, stinky underarms...Carpe is the solution.

Holy WOW

I've been using prescription grade deodorants to try to control my underarm sweat, and usually within 5-10 minutes, it's already gummed up and rolling off my underarms. I would have to stand in front of the AC for about an hour for the deodorant to "dry" only for a small chance it would get me through the next few hours. Seriously y'all, I thought I had no solution.I always told me mother in law (who was always cold) to PLEAAAASE don't put the heat on full blast or my whole day is ruined 😫 even the little bit of heat made me sweat and the result was stinking, sweating and eventually pit stains on ALL my shirts and blouses.I saw Carpe.. debated for a few weeks to try it. I didn't want to be let down again.. but why not try it?

I thought I would never be free from my underarm troubles.. it worked the 1st day, I'm not kidding. I've been applying twice a day like recommended, and ITS CHANGED MY LIFE. I will never try anything else ever again!A little goes a LONG WAY. It is a little sticky, but it dries super fast. Before Carpe, if I put a shirt on a few minutes after deodorant.. guaranteed sweat. After Carpe, I can put on a shirt after a few minutes and I don't ever.. EVER have to worry about starting to sweat.100% believer and now loyal customer to Carpe. THANK YOU FOR SAVING MY PITS ✨✨✨

My search for the perfect underarm stick is over!

I’ve been using Carpe for almost a year, and I will never try anything else. I am sold! I’ve struggled with contact dermatitis for many years, and that meant dealing with itchy, irritated, pore-clogged underarms EVERY DAY!! I tried over 40 different options over that time. Not only were my underarms irritated and itchy, but I was stuck with poor odor control, sticky underarms, sweaty underarms, and weird fragrance masking smells. Nothing I tried worked until I found Carpe. It took my body about a month to clear up the irritation and clogged pores, but during that time I was healing not getting worse. And best of all, I was staying dry and fresh ALL DAY LONG! I will shout it from the rooftops, “I LOVE CARPE!” And I’ll use it as long as they sell it. Thank you, Carpe, ... MoreI’ve been using Carpe for almost a year, and I will never try anything else. I am sold!

Truly life changing

Wow. I have tried everything. I sweat through literally every OTC antiperspirant option. And prescription antiperspirants from the dermatologist burned my skin and were impossible for me to use. THIS STUFF WORKS! First and foremost, when I use this I barely sweat at all. Like so little. No sweat stains! (Unheard of for me. I buy clothes based on how obvious sweat stains will be in them because that’s just my reality.) And it smells so good! And on top of that, none of the side effects I’ve had in the past with strong antiperspirants. No burning, no itching, no uncomfortably dry skin. I’m shook.Feeling insecure about sweating and BO makes it hard to get close to people. And the fact that it’s only been a week and literally not an issue anymore makes me want to cry. ... MoreWow.

good..

Ok so i ordered this thinking there is no way it can stop all of my under arm sweat, and it didn't. But keep in mind I am just a crazy sweaty person. So to give an example I have this tight grey shirt, I know every sweaty persons nightmare. Normally I sweat from 8am-4pm the sweat stain is an inch from my elbow and way past the band of my bra. Yeah its safe to say I don't wear that shirt often. So I wore that shirt today and put it to the test. Here is what I observed:1) I still sweated but considerably less! Like by lunch it was the size of a quarter. and my the end of the day it expanded to a size of a credit card. but hey coming from a sweat-print the size of a hydro flask to a credit card imma call that a win!!2) I smelled so good throughout the day! I ordered ... MoreOk so i ordered this thinking there is no way it can stop all of my under arm sweat, and it didn't. But keep in mind I am just a crazy sweaty person.

I ordered the fresh powder sent, it smells a lot better than I thought it was going to!3) it didn't hold up through my workout but then again take how much i sweat on the daily then think of me in a 3 1/2 hour practice. I have lost all hope for working out.All in all I really like this product. For me it does not 100% get rid of my sweat stain but I am going to continue to buy it because of how it drastically reduced it!
