So the summer is not long off and temperatures shall rise.
whats the best product ?

From what I've read in the past, Driclor is king but will sting.
Is Odaban just as good but without the pain ?
 
I've never tried Driclor. I've used Odaban, however, and that stings me (to the point I generally avoid using it)... I wouldn't say I have sensitive skin either.
 
Driclor is for under-arm usage. Where as Odaban can be used on your hands and even your face :/

So if you're a greasy faced, sweaty, clammy hand mo'fo' get yourself some Odaban.

(I will!)
 
Odaban works great for me. Stings a little when you first use it or if you use too much but nothing unbearable. Driclor apparantly burns like **** :p

Think I'll give the Odaban a whirl first.
Do you apply It daily or once a week ect ?

you apply it once at night to dry skin (must be dry otherwise it reacts with the sweat which causes the irritation) daily to begin with then after a while you can either continue to use daily or only use it for a few days a week. Personally i find I still need to use it at least 5 times a week but everyone's different.

Then wash off in the morning. You can then apply a normal deodorant if you wish. (I am yet to test not using a deodorant the next day)

They have a website which should help with any other questions :)
 
Can you bathe in it?
That would be the simplest option if you were generally a sweaty person. :p


Oh and DriClor get's my vote, it doesn't sting as much as people say it does :confused: but I haven't tried OdaBan

These look a bit suspect to me.

The sweatblock pads use 13% Aluminium chloride as their active ingredient vs 20% for Odaban/Driclor. With the latter you have to apply frequently at the start so I don't see how sweatblock can claim a single weekly application will suffice.

You would be better off buying Odaban and spraying it onto a cotton wool pad. This is what I do and a £5 bottle lasts me 6 months.
