Secret Clinical Strength is a Straight Lie
Now, don't get your pit-stains in a bunch thinking that I have some hyperactive sweat glands. I don't. I'm a lady, and anyway, I pretty much never get my heart pumping at a rate my body might confuse with exercise. But I saw the Secret Clinical Strength and was sold (mainly by the exclusive cardboard box packaging), on the thought that if it works for super sweaters, it would be super sweat-preventing on me.
Well I was right. This stuff is amazing. What's the lie, you wonder? The label says "advanced solid." I was pretty excited because I'm a strict solid-only user when it comes to deodorant. I don't like the tingly, earth-killing sensation of aerosol sprays and CAN NOT STAND the mushy gel that you "click" through slots atop the applicator. Guess what? That's what the "advanced solid" is. Looks like this clinical strength secret is so high powered, it advanced right past solid into a sticky gel form. Fun. Also you have to crank the applicator about 8 times to get the gel to come out for your first use, which means your extra expensive deo is actually only half the prod you'd get in a normal stick. [boo. hiss. don't they know it's a recession?!]
I guess if this were a consumer review, I'd still recommend the product. It works, and doesn't have an offensive 'spring rain baby powder fresh chamomile lavender' scent. But, damn, it's not a solid.
Why would they lie? Why, Secret?!
