*Decent* antiperspirant?

Hi All
I have no problems using an antiperspirant in the winter/spring etc as they all seem to work for me but as soon as we have a warm day, i just can't help but feel self concious. I feel sticky and smelly as soon as 30 mins after I put in on
Any recommendations on a good anti p? Can you get something that stops you sweating altogether?
I've tried all of the top name brands; dove, sure, nivea etc etc. They are all rubbish in the warm weather. Roll ons in the aforementioned brands are rubbish on me too.
Thanks

I swear by Mitchum, either the roll on or solid stick.0

I was going to reply mitchum too.Forty and fabulous, well that's what my cards say....0

Another vote for Mitchum - used it for years.0

I found the perfumed anti-perspirants tend to give me skin irritation and have found the Mitchum unscented sticks work well for me0

Another vote for mitchum. The stick is good and so is the roll on, but it does seem to take longer to dry than other anti perspirants.0

Cheers guys. I'll get onto Mitchum!In debt no more!0

Hi Lou! I've recommended Driclor before, and I still use it to this day. It only needs applying once every 2 to 3 days in the evening (after first applying everyday until the adjustment period stops).
I cover it in more detail on this post, including some tips on how best to make it work without stinging; take a look if the Mitchum doesn't work:

Honestly, I've had the same bottle for months, making it very MSE as well as very effective! :money:0 -
I use driclor as well, although I find I only need to use it once a week.0

A Mitchum fan here also. I can only use the unperfumed as I scratch like a loppy dog with the scented ones.0

Not that you need it but another vote for mitchum here too, its often on offer in Boots etc even the major supermarkets, I like the roll on powder scented one
