For Hyperhidrosis "This is the first day where I actually used this product, and it works absolutely wonderfully! My armpits haven't sweated at all, which makes me really joyful, and I just tried it on my sweaty feet, and that stopped sweating also. I'm going to try it on my sweaty hands later, but I'm sure it's going to work. This product is amazing."

For Hyperhidrosis "I have been suffering in silence with my foot odor my entire adult life. I have been stared at and talked about behind closed doors and lost many jobs due to my excessive foot sweating and odor with my shoes on! I started using Hypercare at night, wrapping my feet in plastic with socks, and I have not had a day of foot odor since. I recently started a new job, and I'm so happy that I don't offend anyone with foot odor anymore."

For Hyperhidrosis "I had been sweating since I was in 8th grade and now I'm (17). But now using this Hypercare has been helping a lot. I had been wearing black shirts all the time, never wore colorful shirts. And when I wore sweatshirts, my sweat would come through. Now I don't have that problem."

For Hyperhidrosis "I started using this product a little more than a week ago. I applied it three nights in a row as instructed and went to a party the next day to test it out. I still sweated, but not nearly as much, and I had hope that with time I would be totally sweat-free. I applied it once again the following night, only to continue to sweat the next day. Since then (it's been about four days), I have applied Hypercare every night without any improvements in the amount I sweat. Today was the first day of school, and I was sweating the entire day, unable to lift my arms at all for fear of the odor and stains. I feel so hopeless now and don't know what to do."

For Hyperhidrosis "Absolutely felt better in years. I have never used any medication prior to this, so I was absolutely skeptical about my issue. This morning, I waited and waited for that steady drip down my armpit, and it never came, and it was only the first day I used it! I was absolutely ecstatic. Now, I can wear clingy shirts and cute tops without ever worrying about there being a nasty stain or worse, having someone see the sweat. By the way, the stinging are only small side effects. Nevertheless, no pain, no gain."

For Hyperhidrosis "I'm 35 and have had a problem with sweating since high school. Shortly after high school, I started taking birth control pills, and the problem stopped. I stopped taking the pill last year, and within a few months, I noticed my sweating was starting again. I don't know if it was because of the birth control pills or not. I was embarrassed to bring it up to my doctor, but I finally did. I couldn't lift up my arms at all at work because of the sweat marks. You take Hypercare for a few days at first, and I was so excited that I stopped sweating. I could finally wear thin colored shirts and not have sweat marks anymore. The only side effect I've had is the itching, intense at times at night when I have it on. Once or twice, I've had to wash it off. But 100% worth it."

For Hyperhidrosis "I've suffered from severe underarm sweat for years. After I had my first baby, it only got worse. I have nothing but black shirts in my closet because I was too embarrassed of my sweat stains to wear any colored tops. My first night using Hypercare was last night, and today not one drop of sweat or any smell from my armpits. I feel like a new woman and can't wait to see it improve even more. I am going shopping soon to get some colored shirts, and I can't wait."

For Hyperhidrosis "I am almost 13 years old. When I was pretty young, I had not a hint of a sweating problem. Then, once I got a little older, it all started. I was extremely embarrassed to shake people's hands, and even more embarrassed when my friends asked me, 'Why are your hands so wet?' and I would always lie and say, 'Oh, I just washed them.' I would always wear a jacket to cover my hands, and I would constantly be wiping my hands. I finally convinced my mom to take me to a doctor, and they prescribed Hypercare. Although at some points in the day my fingertips would sweat, the problem is almost completely gone. Thanks, Hypercare, you saved me."

For Hyperhidrosis "I am completely amazed! I am 30 years old and am just now able to wear any colors or fabrics. I have spent years embarrassed and trying to hide the sweat rings under my arms. I feel like a new person and am so happy that this product works."

For Hyperhidrosis "I have been using Hypercare for years now. I noticed people were saying it burned quite a bit. My doctor told me to take a wet wash cloth and get the affected area damp prior to using Hypercare, and it takes care of the burning. It really does work."

For Hyperhidrosis "It really works. I feel much more confident in myself. I don't have to wear a dark-colored jacket all the time or limit my shirts to only tank tops. I'm sweat-free. I can't wait to go shop for long-sleeve and short-sleeve shirts in any color I desire."

For Hyperhidrosis "I had extremely bad sweating under my armpits. I used to sweat in normal t-shirts and even thick sweatshirts. It was so embarrassing. When I got in front of people or to a party or something, it was terrible. I couldn't wear normal colored shirts, especially gray, which is like my favorite color, because the sweat stains were so large. I couldn't take it anymore and asked my doctor about a solution, and she suggested Hypercare to me. I tried it on at night, washed it off in the morning, and did not put any deodorant/antiperspirant on the following morning, and I tested it with a gray t-shirt and went to the mall, and NO SWEATING AT ALL. Hypercare is magic! I'm so dry now! Definitely would recommend this to anyone with the same problem!!"

For Hyperhidrosis "My first night I applied Hypercare, and it burned beyond belief, but I stuck through it. The next morning, I decided to have a trial run, so I purposefully wore a light-colored shirt. To my amazement, there wasn't one drop of sweat and no sweat stains. I am truly impressed with Hypercare and have recommended it to a few friends that have the same embarrassing sweat problem that I do."

For Hyperhidrosis "I have been using this for 5 days on my face to treat excessive sweating. I experienced extreme burning and itching. One thing that has worked for it is baking soda. I pour some in a cup and mix it with a little water until it is the consistency of icing. After I put it on, I don't experience any more burning or itching. Then, when it dries, I take it off. Good luck, and I hope this helped."

For Hyperhidrosis "To anyone for whom this has not worked well: this didn't work for me at all...until I trimmed my armpit hair significantly. Try it! I did not shave it as I knew this would cause serious irritation. I just used hair trimming shears and trimmed it down to basically nothing. Now this has gone from doing nothing to working almost perfectly. Before you give up hope (and I know how hopeless this condition makes one feel), give this a shot; I assume it works because the medicine is absorbed better."

For Hyperhidrosis "I just put it on last night for the first time. However, I put way too much on, and my armpits have been burning and red ever since. However, for right now, I think it's worth it. To wear the clothes you want without having to worry. No deodorant put on after that application. Still dry."

For Hyperhidrosis "So, the night before I used Hypercare, I came onto this site and looked at user reviews, since I was reluctant to use it at first because I was worried it wouldn't work and I'd have bad BO all day at school. I think the user reviews helped my unsureness because that's what mattered most to me; how it worked for the everyday person. I put it on last night, and it stung and itched (I'm on the second night, and the itch is still there), but the next day I barely sweat. I sweat a little at lunch (but since it's the first day, it's not fully effective), but that was it! Hypercare is a dream come true. No longer do I have to live with the embarrassment of sweating."

For Hyperhidrosis "I have suffered from severe underarm perspiration for many years. I would only wear tops that were black or white. Even through many layers of clothing, my shirt stains under my arms were terrible. I would worry that people could see my sweat, and that would make me sweat even MORE. This product is AMAZING! I never thought it would be this easy to get rid of the problem! Just follow the instructions on the bottle, and your life will be SO MUCH BETTER! Sometimes it feels like it is warm in my underarm area, and I freak out that I am sweating, but when I look, there is nothing there! This is an incredible product... VERY highly recommended!"

For Hyperhidrosis "I'm a fifteen-year-old girl, and I'm going to be a junior once the summer vacation ends. I've had axillary hyperhidrosis since maybe sixth grade. I never really became self-conscious about it until maybe eighth grade. I always wore sweatshirts, no matter what, or a baggy T-shirt. My hyperhidrosis wasn't as bad as others, where they'd be drenched in sweat, I just always had a maybe one point five by one point five inch sweat mark, and it's just uncomfortable. The night before last night, I started using Hypercare solution, and the following day (yesterday), I had absolutely no sweating. The only problem is that Hypercare is really itchy and irritates my skin. But it doesn't burn. I recommend this product! It works like magic. Changed my life."

For Hyperhidrosis "Amazing product - for me, from the age of about 13, it had gotten to the point where I would sweat so much all the time that I wore baggy sweatshirts constantly. Even sometimes in the summer, to hide all the sweating. After using Hypercare, I rarely sweat unless I'm exercising or it's legitimately hot - which is GREAT."

For Hyperhidrosis "I'm 18 years old, and I have had an extreme sweating problem in my armpits for several years. I've tried pretty much everything: Dove, Degree, Mitchum, etc., and still continued to sweat! I can say that Hypercare is amazing, and it works! I can now wear cute shirts without having to worry about armpit stains. Thank you, Hypercare!"

For Hyperhidrosis "I'm a 15-year-old girl, and I've been using this product for about 2 years now. I used to sweat in my underarms so badly that I'd have huge pit stains, no matter if it was hot outside or not. I started wearing only baggy t-shirts to school because I was so uncomfortable. Then my doctor prescribed Hypercare, and it truly works wonders. I put it on at night before I go to bed, and it burns, tingles, and itches a little, but it's definitely worth it. The next day, I don't sweat AT ALL. Now I can wear cute clothes, and I don't feel gross or uncomfortable! I love this product!"

For Hyperhidrosis "I've been using Hypercare for a little over a year, and it works great if I use it every night. Unfortunately, it does sting a lot. I've found that using Ultrabalm from Lush Cosmetics definitely brings down the stinging quite a bit, so I'd recommend that to anybody who has the same problem!"

For Hyperhidrosis "Since about 7th grade, I've been dealing with SUPER sweaty armpits. I mean a water fountain. I would have to wear sweaters to school every day (even in summer). I avoided light-colored shirts and anything tight-fitting. I tried men's deodorants and every kind of women's deodorants out there. Finally, at age 19, I went to the doctor and embarrassingly told her of my sweat problem, and she prescribed me Hypercare. My first application itched and burned a little, but the next morning I didn't sweat. Last night was my second application, and this morning it had a little rash (I'm not worried), but I think it's totally worth it if it keeps my sweat problem under control. I should have gone to the doctor in like 8th grade! Thank you, doctors!"

For Hyperhidrosis "I am 18 years old, and I have had a sweating problem under my arms since I was 13. I have been wearing black T-shirts since I can remember, only because they didn't show sweat! I went to my doctor about a month ago, and she prescribed me Hypercare. I love it. I could feel the difference just after one use. It really is a miracle! Yes, it itches, and sometimes burns when you put it on, but it is totally worth it, and many people say that I would start sweating a lot in other places, but I haven't noticed that anywhere, so I am super happy with Hypercare."
