I brought this because I often suffer from nervous facial sweating. I have tried everything to get rid of it but nothing's worked. People don't tend to comment on it or probably just assume I'm too hot but it's something that makes me feel massively self conscious which just makes the issue worse as it makes me more nervous.Anyway something that is stated on the packaging but I don't recall seeing on the listing is that you have to wait an hour to use this spray after having a bath or a shower. It also says to only apply it in the evenings before going to bed and that it should never be applied during the day.It recommends to put some form of talc on beforehand if your face (or any body part)is moist or if you suffer from sensitive skin. I presume it is to form a slight barrier for sensitive skin which is something I do suffer from. I was a bit disappointed that the talc wasn't mentioned in the listing as I would prefer not to use normal talc full of chemicals and to use a more natural powder instead, had I have known I would have ordered a rice starch powder at the same time to use in conjunction with this product.As it was I ended up using johnsons talc for the first few times which I hate as it clogs my face and has loads of chemicals in. So yeah... Something to consider when purchasing this product is buying some sort of talc powder as well, especially if you have sensitive skin as you will need it.As soon as I sprayed this on my face I did feel a slight stinging on my skin and it became a bit itchy which I know was because of my sensitivities, I had applied a tiny bit of talc but I probably should have used more because my skin is sensitive. My skin did go a bit dry but as I was about to sleep it didn't really matter and the stinging was only mild and wore off after a little while. It then says to wear it all night and then wash it off in the morning which I did. It washed off fine.I the put a light moisturiser on my face as my skin was a little dry (which is quite normal for me) and went about my day as usual.At one point I felt myself getting a bit warm as I was nervous, although I didn't feel a massive difference I was aware that although I felt really warm my face was actually relatively dry. I don't know if this was just a coincidence though with it being the first time I'd used the product, however it is something I have noticed on other occasions when I've used this product so I'm going to take that as its working!It recommends to use the product about twice a week so I will keep using it and will hopefully notice a marked improvement.From my usage so far I would recommend this product as I feel it does have the potential to make a massive improvement to my life when I'm feeling nervous based on my experience so far.***update***I have exceptionally sensitive skin and have been using a little of this spray on top of a dusting of talc, basically by spraying the product onto my face from a distance of about 30cm. However on one occasion I decided to follow the actual instructions given for women and people with sensitive skin which was to spray some of this product onto cotton wool and dab it onto your face after using a coating of talc. I regretted it almost instantly. My face literally felt like it was on fire, within ten minutes my skin had gone bright red and was blistering before my eyes and became really chapped and sore. I ended up washing it off and the blistering lasted a few days. It seems like odd advice to give for women and people with sensitive skin as it caused me more issues than just spraying it as normal (which causes minor irritation but doesn't cause my skin to blister, it just gets a bit itchy but I can deal with it). So yeah, a word of caution, maybe don't follow the instructions on the bottle for women or people with sensitive skin. Everybody is different so I suppose different methods work with differs people but if you do have particularly sensitive skin be prepared for a little bit of trial and error to find the right technique for applying this product that suits you.

Without wishing to sound melodramatic, this product is nothing short of miraculous.I have suffered with underarm perspiration for about 30 years (but thankfully no odour!!). It has not been so bad that I've had to speak to a doctor or a dermatologist, and I have learned to live with it, getting to know what colour shirts and t-shirts it's safe for me to wear, and even how to hold my arms to avoid showing sweat patches. But recently I decided that I'd had enough and wanted to find a proper solution.My perspiration was made more frustrating because my "internal thermostat" (as I like to call it!) goes haywire sometimes - e.g. when it's cold my armpits sweat more! So, for example,I'd go out to work on a winter morning with a coat on, then when I'd get to work 30 minutes later I'd be sweating. Or if it was cold I'd slip on a cardigan or fleece, and there I'd go again.I tried the usual stuff you can get from Boots - like Sure, Mitchum, etc. but nothing worked. Sometimes I'd be dry for a while, but it never lasted very long. So I did some research on line and found out about Odaban. I couldn't believe what people were saying about the amazing results, so I thought, "I've just GOT to try this!" Yes, it's expensive, but you understand why once you see the results - plus the small bottle lasts ages as you only need one spray at a time. Now don't get me wrong - I don't expect to stop sweating completely. For example, I cycle regularly so I expect to sweat, just the same as when I go on holiday and sunbathe or do work outdoors in the summer. I just wanted something that will keep me dry so that I can wear what I like and not have the discomfort and embarrassment of wet shirts and t-shirts.I used my Odaban as soon as I got it (at night, as directed) then went to bed a little unsure of how effective it would be or if it would work at all. The next day the results were incredible: not a drop of sweat under my arms. Now I can go a full day at work and not sweat, plus I can wear the clothes I want with much more confidence. Sure, it takes a little while for your body to get used to it (you might sting or itch a bit at first but this should soon stop) but be patient - this DOES work, and like I said it's nothing short of miraculous!!I now use it every other night, just one squirt under each arm, but I'm hoping to get that down to just a couple of times a week (a lot of people have said this is all they need to use).If you suffer from excess perspiration, DO give Odaban a try, the results will amaze you. Just follow the guidelines (i.e. DON'T put it on the morning as it is no good for clothes, plus it is formulated to work at night when your body is at its most relaxed). Check with your doctor or chemist first if you're unsure.I can't rate or praise this product highly enough; I just wish it was marketed a bit more so that I could have found out about it sooner.Brilliant!!!

WOW ! I was SO impressed by this product I had to write a review. I was totally sceptical. I have tried a few high price anti-perspirants and none of them stopped the underarm wet patches showing. I suffered with nervous anxious underarm sweating which is very embarrassing especially at work and also wet patches on my daily quick walk to work. It was really affecting my confidence and having to choose which clothes to wear each day to hide the problem was so annoying. I have tried wearing the sweat shields that stick inside clothes but they were not practical. I didn't believe one spray of this could be effective.

I've been a sufferer of hyperhidrosis since the age of 16 and it's been a big embarrassment in my life. For years I've struggled with social situations and I've not been able to wear the clothes I want. I've been using underarm sweat pads for the past few years and have had a lot of success with these. However I wanted to try something new and recently purchased a bottle of odaban. I can confirm this product does work. It has put a stop to my sweaty armpits. It's simple to use, just apply a small spray or 2 last thing at night. Some people may find it irritates the skin and I have had this but only once or twice and it's nothing that I couldn't deal with. Besides I think the end result is worth a tiny bit of itching.

So I have a serious perspiration problem - no getting away from it. All over. I have to dress to hide it and adapt my life to suit, grow a beard to hide some of the dripping face and carry a cloth to mop my brow, even in winter. Years ago I bought a similar product designed for hands and feet and made the mistake of trying it on my armpits. Screaming agony! Other supposedly 48, 72 or even 96 hour protection products with claims of Extreme Dry and the like have no effect at all. So how does Odaban compare. Well, it certainly cuts the sweating down a lot more than regular products, though it hasn't stopped it completely, and there's virtually no discomfort like the other specialised product,

I had to think hard how to word this review,because as a sufferer of hyperhidrosis since the age of about 10,sweating,under my armpits,hands and feet has been the biggest secret of my life. So putting it down for strangers to read is quite a challenge.Unless you are a sufferer,or know someone who is, then it is almost impossible to explain just how much it can affect you every day. I have never in my life worn an outfit I love,felt confident in how I look,or chosen an outfit because its the one I want. Every item of clothing has revolved around one thing only...will it show up the sweat? So after nearly 20 years of black,baggy,batwing tops and dresses,I felt almost at my wits end.Looking into botox injections etc.

I have always been a sweaty person who burns hot so I even sweat throughout winter, and as soon as I enter a room that is slightly warmer than my previous environment, I instantly begin dripping. It's extremely embarrassing as a waitress, but previous uniforms I have worn have always been black to hide the huge sweat patches that form as I'm running in and out of a hot kitchen carrying heavy trays and plates. I started a new job with a purple shirt for my uniform that, as soon as it gets wet, turns a deep plum colour, making sweat patches unbelievably obvious.It was so embarrassing, and I could sometimes overhear customers comment on my sweat patches, which in turn made me anxious and then sweat more.

i thought it might be interesting to hear how this product works for the ladies!i 'suffer' from mild to moderate underarm sweating, particularly in social situations. it had got to the point where it was embarrasing and people were noticing. the clothes i could wear were very limited as only certain colours (mainly black, white) and certain materials managed to hide my sweaty pits. i had to do something about it. i dont like harsh chemicals so i was wary of using odaban but i was left with no choice.first and foremost it definately works - horray! its basically a mega dose of deodrant in one go and it will last you a week. this is great in itself and could happily be used by a 'normal'

This product is by far the best I have ever came across. After reading into different products and reading many mixed reviews on products like 'Driclor' and other anti-antiperspirants, I decided to give Odaban a go. I am happy to say that Odaban is not a disappointment.With no instruction on how many sprays to apply, my first night was a little uncomfortable. I'd recommend using 2 sprays to each armpit to start with. Any more and it is a risk of the armpit feeling a little uncomfortable during that nights sleep. It isn't enough to wake you from sleep, but it makes drifting off just that little bit more difficult.However, this product does exactly what you want from it. I suffered from terrible sweat patches,

I'm writing this review as someone with classic hyperhidrosis - I sweat for no reason at all - even in this winter weather - from my underarms. When under stress or excercising, it's also my face, hands and feet. I'm slightly below average weight with a healthy diet and I'm very active. I've tried many different brands of hiperhidrosis antiperspirant, with varying success. I'm glad I decided to give this product a go, it's fantastic! I applied it to the inner third of my underarms with cotton wool as directed, and a few minutes later the tingling started. This wasn't overly uncomfortable, and I slept just fine that night. I washed it off the next morning, and felt fine until that afternoon,

I’ve had facial sweating for a couple of years now because of medication. This summer it has been particularly bad so I went on a mission to find a solution. I went down the traditional routes first with makeup and skincare but never had any luck. Then one day whilst I was putting on my underarm deodorant it hit me - antiperspirant for the face. I was initially sceptical and nervous but I was so desperate that I was willing to try anything. With some research I discovered Odaban and decided to try it because of the great reviews. I tested it the night I got it, 30 minutes after I’d applied my skincare and after I’d applied talc to expel moisture.

I suffer with excessive armpit sweating (certain tops such as viscose and long sleeved T-shirts are an absolute no no) and have tried other products such as Driclor and Perspirex-for me these are agony as being a roll on they apply far too much product and leave me with painful red armpits and I couldn't even lift my arms.As Odaban is a spray it allows you to apply as much or as little as you need-for me with sensitive skin this is only one spray per armpit onto a cotton wool ball and gently dabbed on. I apply talc beforehand to make sure the area is dry (if it's not then the Odaban will react with the moisture and hurt),

30.5.2012

Well - at first I was cautious of this. I have tried several different approaches to stop my problem.My problem is forehead sweat. Sometimes it takes drinking a cup of tea to set it off, so imagine what its like when im out clubbing with friends - its embarrassing. I bought this product hoping it would arrive before my 6th form ball. It arrived the day of the ball (morning) so after reading the instructions (says only apply at night) i thought what the hell and put a load on. A few hours later i had my ball - now, i was sweating by the end of the night, but no where near as much as i would if i didnt have it, the sweating took slightly more to be activated,

Just a bit of background, I bought this mainly for my hands. I've had sweaty palms for ages, even though I didn't think of it as much of an issue (it didn't affect relationships or stuff like that) but .... since I've been at Uni, for some reason, I've been more self conscious about it, which makes it worse because it happens when I'm tense, in a group situation or have a lot of close contact. It's not dripping off but sometimes significant enough to be unpleasant when shaking someone's hand.I looked at alternative options, it's not that bad that the gland needs to be removed (which seems to cause problems elsewhere when it's done) but the reviews for hands were limited and not always positive.

28.4.2011

i have been suffering from hyperhydrosis for the past nine or ten years. this has really effected my self confidence, i always tried to avoid public interaction because of the embarrassment of my wet underarms. my underarms would sweat like broken dams there was no stopping it. then i searched internet for this problem and came to know that there a few remedies available.hyperhydrosis could be treated by botox injection which is a prolonged treatment.another solution is surgery which i found out that both are very expensive for a student like me. i used a lot of antiperspirant roll on etc. but this didn't helped at all. then i found out that there are a few antiperspirants available which people had very good reviews about it.
