Carpe Underarm Antiperspirant and Deodorant, Clinical strength with Rose Water scent, Combat excessive sweating Stay fresh and dry, Great for hyperhidrosis

BO and Sweat GAME CHANGER
If you’re questioning whether it’s worth the price or if you should get it JUST GET IT!! I’ve spent years looking for a deodorant that actually lasts the amount of time that the company advertises and I finally found it!Ive tried nearly all the deodorants from non-aluminum to clinical formulas, anything and I was never satisfied. To name a few: Secret Clincial Strength, Native, Lume, Degree Regular & Clinical Strength, Salt & Stone, and many others. I swear by this deodorant and despite its high price point I think it’s worth every penny. I’m not sponsored and I pay full price every time.Some deodorants are okay during cooler days and if I’m not being too active, but they all failed after I workout. Carpe deodorant is the only deodorant that I have done intense workouts with and I still smell like the warm vanilla scent. I’ve tried most of the scents and they’ve all smelled lovely. I recommend this deodorant to everybody!I’ve had some friends say it dries their armpits out but they also mentioned that they just apply it whenever. I did experience a little bit of this dryness but after I started applying it after showering at night and first thing in the morning the dryness went away.

For The Cost, Do Not Buy This
TL>DR Summary:DO NOT buy this product. While I would not go as far as to say this item is a scam, because it is a real product that does what it says, at $18 (what I paid) per 1.7 oz (50ml) this is 5x more expensive than it should be. If you’re in the market for this product specifically, I would suggest you get Degree Advanced 72 Hour instead. If you are looking for a “clinical strength” version of this product, get Certain Dri Extra Stength Clinical Strength. Both of which are 3-5X cheaper. For an everyday “clinical strength”, go with Certain Dry Clinical Strength Everyday or Degree Clinical Protection, both 2-3x cheaper.Synopsis:Over the years, as I have aged and become more active, my regular deoderant and antiperspirants stopped becoming effective. I would find myself sweating more often and, as a result, the armpits of my shirts suffered greatly. In doing some shopping for a new antiperspirant, I came across Carpe. A friend of mine said that they had used it and thought I should give it a try, so I did. At the time of purchase I hadn’t done a lot of research into antiperspirants but, after having purchased, I wish I had as it would have save me a lot of time. While the product itself is decent, the price ($18) and size make this product a horrible value for what it is actually offering. Further, this product is marketed as though it’s “clinical strength” when in reality, it’s not at all.Application:The product comes as a soft solid. Basically means that it has more of a “lotion” consistency than a solid. The packaging states to put a thin layer under your arms before bed (as do many of these products) although “thin” layer is up to interpretation. But, nevertheless, apply a small amount at night. While the product is quick drying, I did find that “quick” meant several minutes. I didn’t find the formula to be irritating to me although it was sticky at times. However, once it dried I had no further problems. I do wish that the instructions made the amount clearer (such as two turns, four turns, etc.) but it wasn’t bad.Fragrance:I decided to go with the Coconut Vanilla scent, mainly because it was cheaper at the time I purchased. The smell isn’t super strong but not light either, so in the middle. I’m not a huge fan of coconut smells, but I did not find this one to be unpleasant at all.Results:This is where I had the bulk of my issues. This product uses aluminum sesquichlorohydrate as it’s antiperspirant active ingredient. Aluminum sesquichlorohydrate is one of 18 FDA approved aluminum salts and is more gentle on the skin. While not necessarily what would be used in a prescription (that would be aluminum chloride), it’s effective. The problem that I have, however, is that this product uses aluminum sesquichlorohydrate @ 15% concentration. This means that while this product has a higher concentration than a typical gentle antiperspirant that uses this active ingredient (as it will usually be 9-10% concentration), it is actually less than many 72 hour antiperspirants that use the same active ingredient (ex. Degree Advanced 72 Hour is 16%). In my testing, in fact, this product is mostly on par to slightly less effective for me than a typical Degree Advanced 72 Hour solid stick, with me getting similar (to just slightly less) dryness results. Thus, if you combine that with the fact that it’s a soft solid (and thus, more difficult application), costs $10.58 per oz, and contains less of it’s active ingredient than a antiperspirant that regularly comes in a larger, 2.6 oz size and costs $5 in most places ($1.92 per oz), this product is borderline scam. If you are in need of this particular active ingredient at similar concentrations, visit your local store and look at the labels. You’ll find some 72 hour sticks with similar concentrations. If you are looking for a “clinical strength” version of this active ingredient, Certain Dri Clinical Strength Extra Strength contains the legal maximum of 25% aluminum sesquichlorohydrate. Like this, it comes as a 1.7 oz solid but is usually around $7-8, making it a much better buy for a much stronger product.Overall:Overall, this is not a product that I can recommend, not at this price point. It’s no better than a typical 72 Hour antiperspirant but costs 5x as much. And for a clinical strength version of this particular active ingredient, it’s 3x as much. If you suffer from excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) and need something strong, this is definitely not going to be your product. The marketing of the product is good and it has good story, but at the end of the day it boils down to what it’s made of and its price point. For its price, it should be much better. I will stick to other products versus this one.

This really works! I have tried all of the well known brands, all of which have caused stinging and itchiness but not this! It’s amazing, it has stopped me sweating and doesn’t cause any itching or soreness. Highly recommend!

The product was delivered super fast. The packaging was completely damaged though. The outer packaging was fine, just the product’s box was smashed completely and the product was open and leaked as the pics. Haven’t tested the product yet. Packaging could be better for this price.
