Preperation H for water retention under the skin?

Iv read that you can use preperation H on areas you think you might be holding extra water, before compitition. How long before compitition do you have to put it on, and how often do you have to do this to get the desired water loss?

best bet would be a couple days out and apply daily til the show...but the problem is, it will ruin the evenness of your protan. so you have to keep reapplying. personally i never used this trick just because you never know until saturday morning where you are "holding water" because you dont drop your water until friday night. "holding water" sometimes is an excuse for being fat still too, so strive for being shredded going into friday and saturday you will wake up dry as hell.
