Sweating in your wedding dress???

Original post by AS

Are you guys worried about your underarms sweating on your wedding dress and then leaving a yellow stain from the deodorant? Do you guys know what Im talking about?

I just remembered at my friends wedd , I was a BM and all the girls were sweating and you can see the deodorant and sweat on the dresses

I am most positive certain dry has one of the highest contents of aluminum. I think 17%
my sister in law has it and i was reading the box the other day.



yeah its about 18%...i LOVED it and used it for a while...a friend recommended it and a bunch of us started using it at the same time, everyone had different effects. It does stop sweating but for some they couldnt take the random pinching pains and the itchiness, it was uncomfortable for me but i was able to just deal with it and after about 2 weeks its not bad. Some developed a rash quickly. My problem didnt start until a year or after using it, i started having skin discoloration around my armpits...it turned this yellowish color and looked like i had skin problems...my friend has been using it for YEARS though and this hasnt happened to her but ive heard of others with the discoloration...everyone reacts differently to it but yes the aluminum is high

I'm gonna wear that secret clinical strength! i hope that friggen works otherwise I'm gonna be running outside in the cold lol



I tried that a few weeks ago...and it didnt work! I was so pissed. I can sweat really bad especially when Im nervous (which I will be a wreck on wedding day). And Im so worried about hugging people and stuff and not smelling fresh.

i used secret clinical strength over the summer and while it didn't keep me totally dry (i also put it on in the morning and not at night like the instructions advise) i think it worked better than any other deodorant i've tried...

I'm a teacher and hated having the under arm sweat marks. I went to the dermatologist and she gave me this stuff called Drysol. It works wonders even when the Secret Clinical Strength stuff didn't! You put it on for three nights in a row, then every other night. I haven't stained a shirt since and won't use anything else for my wedding

I am worried about that as well- not sure what I want to do - I just hate that the deodorants that claim they don't leave residue still do.

that was a big reason on why i wanted a fall wedding. i loathe the heat b/c i do sweat and i didnt want to deal with that. lol

another plus is my dress isnt white, its more of a champagne color (at least thats what i want)

I had the botox done over the summer & it was the best thing i could have done........ For the entire summer I didn't even have to wear deodorant. I did notice that i would sweat on my ankles, which is no where near as bad as my armpits!

My ins company covered it which was a plus.
I hear those sessions are pretty expensive. It wasn't painful & wore off in 3 months. I plan to do it a week b4 the big day.

Re: cancer and anti-perspirants. One researcher claims that there may be a link, but there are more studies out there which claim there isn't. Here's more information.

The Knot message boards recommend Certain Dri.

i used certain dri and it worked great for a year but after a while of using it, it caused bad skin discoloration...my armpits turned all yellow and a weird yellow color...when i met FH i was using certain dri, well thank god i had said something about what it was doing to me bc he said to me 'OMG is that why you have that, i thought you had some skin disorder and i felt bad to say something' so im a bit afraid to go on it again. It did work great for a year and some ppl have used it longer without anything happening, then some others also experienced the same thing as me

I used it too - and got a prescrip like it from the doc - I just would sweat, wouldn't know why. SECRET CLINCAL STRENGTH is the answer. Changed my life!
