Sure enough, it works | foot deo cream

I've not seen much on this during my deep dives, so here we go.

My feet sweat a lot and look dirty most of the time due to permanent yellow calluses on my feet, no matter how much I file, soak, moisturise them. I saw a podiatrist a few years back and she said my calluses weren't so bad, but its essentially sweat staining my feet. She gave me a herbal foot soak and told me to change my socks more. I am a very sweaty human, even if I change socks etc regularly.

My shoes absolutely reek, sort of like cat urine. I wash them, dry them, then it picks up immediately where its left off. No fungal infections that I can detect but I tried tea tree infused oils and lotions to be sure. No good.

I also used tougher products like perspirex and shoe powders but no avail. So last week, I picked up the Sure All Body deodorant cream and was sceptical. I don't like Sure generally but it was the only cream not-just-for-pits product I'd seen on the shelves. I also didnt think deodorant would work, as it just masks the smell rather than stops sweat.

I'm pleased to report that, for little over four days and a fiver, the product seems to be sorting my hoofs out.

The cream formula is moisturising any dryness, somehow it seems to reduce sweating in my hands and feet, but more importantly, my shoes aren't knocking me out and my feet were ALMOST dry and smell free after a long day which is unheard of for a person that slips on their own sweat when wearing sandals.

I can see a mild reduction in yellowing, so am hopeful for the days ahead.

For my underarms, I'm using Make Waves refillable antiperspirant (I've asked if they would make an all over body cream because it's genuinely the best formula I've used in 20+ years of sweating). MW is a creamy formula, can transfer to clothing a little (right after application) but I stay dry and odour free all day. I haven't tried it on my feet yet as 1) more expensive and 2) not sure how I feel about rubbing the stick on my feet.

But yeah, I'd be interested to hear if anyone else has tried these products or has similar issues.
