Carpe Underarm Antiperspirant Deodorant Advanced Sweat & Odor Protection Formula - Antiperspirant for Women & Men Helps to Combat Excessive Sweating with Odor Control - Coconut Vanilla

When I saw the ads on social media platforms I thought it was fake. Too good to be true. So I never bought it. I finally did when I saw a sale of these on Amazon and bought one to try. Less than 30 days wearing this and there is a huge difference. You feel fresh and smell fresh all day. The texture isn’t weird at all. You apply it with your fingers rather than rubbing it in with the stick. I find it lasts longer. You do need to wash your hands after but not that big of a deal. It was easy to change from my previous clinical brands as I was still sweating through and felt stinky. If you are a mom who is breast feeding you know how stinky you can be. This honestly changed that. It works. Not sweaty, no arm pit stains, no stinks it is just a great product. Bonus my white shirts aren’t messed up in the arm pits anymore and black shirts don’t have residue on them.

I absolutely LOVE this deodorant! I've found that this is the only antiperspirant that actually works for me. I put it on at night, after my shower and again before I get dressed and ready for the day. I go ALL day smelling sweat free! Every deodorant and antiperspirant I've ever tried, only lasts a couple of hours (especially on a hot day) and then I'm back to sweating and can barely smell the product anymore but that's not the case with this one! I use the coconut vanilla scent and it smells exactly like it's called and I the scent isn't too light or too strong, it's just right. I also have very sensitive skin and this product does not bother my underarms one bit. I tried one of their competitors (rhymes with "blume") and their product smelled worse than B.O, didn't last and gave me chemical burns! So, if you're looking for a product that actually works, try this one out! The only bad thing I could say about it is the price, I wish it was a little cheaper, but other than that, this deodorant is amazing!

I really liked this! I wasn't a fan of the feeling of it at first, because its a lotion it felt weird that my arm pits felt wet but it dries quickly and I didn't notice any transferring to clothing. It smells amazing did great for sweat stopping and continued good smelling for normal daily activity. It seemed to not withstand the whole seaworld day but thats alright. My underarm skin was much improved with no redness or irritation or even razor bumps. Excited to try other scents but this one was surprisingly delightful!

Works pretty good, smells nice, coconut/vanilla. Good sweat resistance. Lasted about 6 hours. My only drawback is that I was only able to use about 1/2 of the container when the twist roll up stopped working.

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 is the first deodorant I've used in my life that actually stops my sweat. I used to sweat constantly- hot or cold. Pretty sure it’s mostly from anxiety. But this stuff works like a charm. The amount of confidence it’s given me to be able to wear any length of sleeves and to wear colored shirts besides only black, is seriously life changing. I wish I would have tried this a long time ago. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Thank you, Carpe!!! ***Editing to add some important info*** The first time I ordered this it was amazing, then I ordered my second one (also here on Amazon, same scent coconut vanilla, same distributor) and the second one was definitely off. The consistency of it was more watery, took longer to rub in, left more of a white cast and started making my skin very dry, itchy, and irritated. This was after using up my first stick with no issues at all. So I ordered directly from Carpe’s website and the one I received from them is so much better. Better consistency and no dryness and irritation. I will not be ordering this product through Amazon again as now I feel it cannot be trusted. Also would also like to note that my most recent order from Carpe was the Rose Water scent and I wouldn’t order that scent again. To me it is very strong and doesn’t go away quickly like the coconut vanilla one did. It smells like fake fragrance, like drugstore shampoo or body wash, not like rose at all.

If you, like me, experience profuse sweating due to conditions like hyperhidrosis, especially linked with PCOS, then you absolutely need to try this deodorant. I've tried countless products, and this one stands head and shoulders above the rest. My number one priority is staying dry, and this deodorant delivered beyond my expectations. I was 100% dry all day, throughout the night, and even woke up the next morning feeling completely dry and fresh. This level of long-lasting dryness is something I haven't achieved with any other product, and it's truly revolutionary for managing heavy sweating. Beyond the incredible dryness, the odor control is phenomenal. I felt confident and fresh from morning till night, which is invaluable. I also want to highly recommend this for anyone with sensitive skin. Despite its powerful effectiveness, I experienced absolutely no irritation, redness, or discomfort, which can be common with strong antiperspirants. Hands down, this is the best deodorant I have had thus far. It tackles both extreme wetness and odor with grace. If you're struggling with similar issues, do yourself a favor and give this a try!

I work in the medical field working from 0400-1700! Then head out to the gym. Was using Native and that stuff started giving me a rash. Even after applying a bit more, I smelled like a dead elephant after 5 day out in the burning sun of the Sahara! Carpe though, it lasts all day long! I put some on in the morning and worked all day at work. Took off my scrubs put on my workout clothes and didnt have to reapply in order for it to continue working! I remove my workout clothes and still smell clean and fresh! I didnt subscribe for Carpe because I wanted to make sure it worked. It works peeps! It definitely works! I'm definitely ordering me more and now gonna subscribe. The size is perfect and again, its consistent with keeping you fresh throughout the day!
