Armpit Challenge: Good product but other Dove is cheaper and works well for me.Jul 06, 2008
By Two kids mom
"scienceteachermom"
I have been using Dove deodorant for a couple of years. I currently have the "Ultimate" clear. I decided to do an "armpit to armpit" comparison of this new Clinical Dove. I have pretty sensitive skin and usually stick to known products to avoid rashes.
First of all, the "Ultimate" is a solid and has 14.8% Aluminum Zirconium Tetrachlorohydrex compared to the "Clinical" 20% and cream like consistency. The Clinical consists of a clear container, within that is a cylinder (you can kind of see it in the photo) of the cream. When you turn the dial the cream is forced up through little holes onto the top of the container. You then rub this hard plastic top with the cream on it under your arm. It is easier to spread than the Ultimate and does not break off when you get to the end (like some solids do, at least to me).
Ok, for the test I put one under each arm for seven days and went about my usual business, including trips to the gym and hiking. And the results are....
The Clinical underarm seemed perhaps slightly drier (sweat wise) but this may be because it is easier to cover all the area. It did leave a small amount of white residue on dark clothes, which did wash out in the wash. It did not give me a rash, nor did it dry out my skin. The Ultimate Clear did not leave any residue, leaves my skin a little drier than the Clinical and takes a little longer to apply but still does the job.
I think if you have problems with excessive sweating it might be worth a try, but I find it rather expensive for the marginal difference for me. My other concern would be taking it on a plane, I am not sure if the container would "leak" the cream under pressure which is not a concern with a solid.
I gave it 4 stars for its ease of application and its function but deducted one star for the cost.

 Excellent ProtectionJul 05, 2008
By Jem
I've been a loyal customer of Secret for years. However, it has become more and more difficult these days to buy unscented. It seems manufacturers are determined we should smell like flowers! As far as I am concerned, that's what perfume is for. I want antiperspirant to be unnoticeable, so I decided to give this Dove Clinical Protection, Original Clean, a try. I am glad I did.
When the package arrived, the first thing I did was compare it to the list of ingredients on my Secret brand to see if there was an actual difference. The active ingredient in both Dove Clinical Protection and Secret Platinum Sping Breeze is "Aluminum Zirconium Tetrachlorohydrex GLY." (Say that five times fast!) Secret has 19% and Dove has 20% of it. They have the same inactive ingredients, except Dove has added moisturizers, which are nice touch. And though the package didn't specifically state it, this Dove is a soft solid, which I prefer.
I found it provides excellent protection against odor and wetness, just as advertised. Everyone knows Secret's motto is "Strong Enough for a Man, Made for a Woman." Only, Dove can actually make that claim. Since the bottle didn't say it was only for women, I had my husband try the product as well. And it worked better than Old Spice Maximum that he was using (and which doesn't even have a list of ingredients!!). He drives a motorcycle to work each day. In July, that makes the ride home in the afternoon hot and uncomfortable. Yet, Dove was working strong even at the end of the day!
When I first saw the price ($9 a bottle without discounts), I was like, "nothing is that good." Wrong. I'll be buying this from now on, and hopefully at Amazon's discount price. Highly recommended.

Succeeds at described in its advertisingMay 25, 2008
By Judi Fryer
"Judi, Entertainment-glutton"
Dove Clinical Protection is a very successful product at fulfilling it's job as promised. I followed the directions, by applying the night before. Later the following day I took either a two mile walk or hiked through some cemeteries taking volunteer photographs. The temperatures varied on the days I tried the product from 68 to 79 degrees. There was none of my usual prespiring on exertion, which is normally a problem for me.
I am always a little reticient to try a new personal product as I have various and sundry allergies and very sensitive skin. I had no negative reaction to the Dove Clinical Protection product.
The Original Clean has just that, a clean scent that delicately stays with you, but does not overwhelm you. I also have sensitivies to some aromas. Dove Clinical Protection scent did not cause any reaction, but did have a very agreeable aroma.
Very glad I gave this product a chance as it far outperforms my normal deoderant/antiperspirant product. I would certainly recommend it.

Excellent ProductJul 03, 2008
By Billie Vanderburg
"Smart Shopper"
Dove has created a winner here. The deodorant/antiperspirant is one of the best I have ever used. The scent is very light, not overpowering like most scented deodorants and fades quickly so that it doesn't clash with perfumes or body sprays. Being summer, I spend a lot of time outdoors gardening and this product has proved itself under circumstances that have caused others to be less than effective. This really deserves the five stars.

Product Does What it Promises.Jul 02, 2008
By kindred spirit
I was a bit hesitant to try a new product for odor and wetness control. I am senitive to fragrance and have sensitive skin.
I can honestly say this product produces no adverse effects. Applied at night as directed you wake up fresh. Take a shower and begin the day. I was a bit shocked that it worked all through the day used in this fashion but it does!
It also goes on smooth almost like it is creamy but dry at the same time. An important feature for me is it leaves no white residue. I did the white shirt test and there were no yellow stains at the end of the day. I did the black shirt test and no white powder stains.
I would highly recommend this product if your regular product is not doing the job.
