Secret Clinical Strength Antiperspirant/Deodorant Advanced Solid

Best deodorant and antiperspirant overall

*Est. $8 for 1.6 oz.
Estimated Price

More experts choose Secret Clinical Strength as the best deodorant than any other brand. It contains 20 percent aluminum zirconium tetrachlorohydrex gly, an active antiperspirant ingredient that's just short of prescription strength. Secret also contains moisturizers to ensure that it is less irritating than prescription antiperspirants. Secret Clinical Strength comes in solid form and is available in four varieties, including one for sensitive skin. A waterproof version is also available. Secret is marketed toward and contains scents meant to appeal to women; men seeking a similar product should consider Gillette Clinical Strength Antiperspirant/Deodorant Advanced Solid, which is also manufactured by Procter & Gamble and contains exactly the same ingredients.

Natural deodorant

*Est. $6 for 4.25 oz.

Natural deodorants are designed to prevent odor-causing bacteria from growing on your skin without the use of chemicals. However, they don't contain ingredients that prevent sweating (which experts say is a natural process anyway). Among natural deodorants, reviewers recommend Crystal Body Deodorant Stick most often. Consumers say the deodorant does a good job of blocking odor, but add that it takes some getting used to. Crystal deodorant, which uses natural mineral salts to help keep odor-causing bacteria from growing, must be moistened prior to application. It is available in roll-on, spray and rock formulas, all of which are fragrance-free and hypoallergenic.

Drysol Antiperspirant

Prescription antiperspirant

*Est. $15 for 35 ml.
Estimated Price

Experts say Drysol Antiperspirant works for 80 percent of the people who use it for excessive sweating. Drysol is available in the United States by prescription only, but is sold without a prescription in Canada. Drysol may be too harsh for those who experience only slight to moderate perspiration. It contains 20 percent aluminum chloride and should be applied lightly in the evenings and then rinsed off in the morning. Several consumers report irritation for the first few days of use but say that one or two applications a week is all that is needed to keep them completely dry. Drysol is not a deodorant, however, and may not provide complete odor protection. Most users recommend using a standard deodorant during the day. Drysol deodorant comes in roll-on or liquid form.
