I had the chance to use RAISE Armpit Stain Remover for the past couple of weeks. As I have embarrassingly admitted several times on my blog I have an excessive armpit sweating issue, so I was very excited to try this product. I go through white shirts very quickly, so I was looking forward to redeeming several shirts back into the daily rotation. My husband also has a couple dress shirts with a ring around the collar that STAINS also claims to remove. STAINS says that if you have previously used bleach or detergent with bleach on the clothes to not use STAINS. Some of these shirts are years old so I don’t remember what has been used on them, but decided to go forward with using STAINS.
I tried this product, which suggests putting on gloves and then pour the product on the stain and letting it sit 15-20 minutes. For really bad stains they suggest taking a brush and scrubbing it. I put this product on white t-shirts with old armpit stains, a couple of my husbands white dress shirts with ring around the collar and some of my baby’s clothes that had yellowish baby poo stains that I couldn’t quite get out. With all of these three types of stains the STAINS product failed to get the stain out as well. In fact I let these garments soak for the recommended time and washed them. I checked the clothes before putting them in the dryer because we don’t dry clothes with stains. When I noticed the stains were still there I reapplied the stains and this time got out an new tooth brush to use as my scrub brush. I scrubbed the STAINS product on the shirt stains and again let them sit for 20 minutes. After washing them a second time and the stains still weren’t out I gave up on those clothes.
My son had recently had a diaper blow out which affected his car seat cover as you can see in the above picture. I decided to use STAINS on this spot as a first treatment. I hadn’t previously tried to remove this STAIN since it had just happened. I put the STAINS liquid on the stain, used the tooth brush to scrub it in good and let it sit for 20 minutes. After washing the car seat cover and before putting it in the dryer I check to make sure it was clean. The poop stain was completely removed! I don’t know if this means STAINS only works on fresh stains or what, but I was happy to have his car seat cover restored.
For a limited time RAISE Armpit Stain Remover is offering a 2 for $20 special on their site.
I am indifferent about this product. It didn’t really do what it claimed for me. I have read several other reviews of this product where the blogger LOVED it and it absolutely worked for her. I must not have had the right stains to use this product on, or there is a time limit on how long the set in stain is to have this product work. If you want to try it out I would love to hear your experience. If you have already used this product before I would love to hear about that as well! Please leave me your comments about this product below in the comment section.
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

As a college student I’m always getting stains in my clothing and this seems like it would help greatly!

This product will be a great help on removing deodorant/armpit stains, no need to use excessive bleach and brushing the clothes thoroughly and changing deodorant. Though you are probably right that maybe it only removes fresh stain.
