#StressStinks, right? Well, recently Secret invited me to an event to find out just how much. But before I get into the stress inducing event, let’s talk sweat.
Why We Sweat
Did you know there are three main causes of sweat?
- Sweat induced by physical activity
- Sweat induced by heat
- Sweat induced by stress
Sweat on its own is odorless. The odor results from bacteria on the skin feeding on the proteins, lipids and water that is excreted in sweat. While all three forms of sweat have the potential to kick up a funk, the kind of sweat excreted during stress has higher levels of proteins and fats than that excreted when you’re hot or when exercising. This higher concentration of fat and protein in stress sweat means more bacteria from food, and more bacteria means a higher propensity for body odor.
During the blogger launch event, all attendees were invited to participate in Aerial Arts as a means to induce stress sweat, and if that wasn’t enough we were also prompted to display or newly learned “skills†in front of the others – talk about stress. Prior to showing up for our lesson in Aerial Arts, we were instructed to use Secret Clinical Strength Stress Response Deodorant only under one arm. During the exercise I did sweat everywhere but under my right armpit.

How Secret’s Clinical Strength Stress Response Deodorant Works
According to Secret, the Clinical Strength Stress Response Deodorant is proven four times more effective at protecting against stress-induced underarm wetness than the wetness protection required of an ordinary antiperspirant. Here are the benefits:
- Secret Clinical Strength fights all three causes of sweat – including the worst smelling kind, stress sweat.
- Secret’s patented BCD technology uses odor-neutralizing molecules to trap odor, lock it away and then replace the odor with a fresh scent to keep you smelling clean and fresh. This is especially important for stress sweat: since the odor is stronger, attempting to simply cover it up with fragrance can make it smell worse.
- Utilizes triple-action technology, providing three layers of protection – prescription-strength wetness protection, odor-fighting microcapsules, and skin soothing conditioners.
- Doctor endorsed and clinically proven to provide prescription strength wetness protection. Contains the maximum level of this anti-perspirant active without a prescription.
- Contains skin soothing conditioners such as dimethicone and petrolatum
- Two-click applicator is specially designed to ensure the right amount of product is delivered to the underarm with each use.
I have been using Secret Clinical Strength Stress Response Deodorant since receiving it at the press event and it has held up through many a stressful events, including my wedding. Don’t take any chances, no matter why, how and where you sweat, Secret Clinical Strength deodorant will keep you protected.
