Your problem is really fairly common. There are several things you can try. One is an antiperspirant called Mitchum. Its active ingredient is Aluminum Sesquichlorohydrate.
For me, I have found that any antiperspirant containing the active ingredient Aluminumtetrachlorohyrex GLY works great. Just remember the word GLY when you look at the ingredient label.
If one active ingredient doesn't work for you, try another brand of antiperspirant/deodorant with a different active ingredient. My best advice is to try the least expensive and easiest things first. If all these fail, see a doctor and get checked for hyperhidrosis.

You probably have a lot of sweat glands under your arm pits. Some people are like that. What you need is a prescription product. You can ask your mom to take you to the doctor and he can prescribe it for you. Otherwise, there is prescription strength deodorant/antiperspirant from Secret and Dove. Try those and see if they help. You also may need to reapply more often than others.

Some people just sweat more. Also, stress, or being nervous, can make you sweat more, especially under the armpits.
As for deodorants and such, they aren't going to totally stop the problem. They are only intended to reduce it. But you could try applying a second layer once the first is dry.
But I'd guess that you tend to be self conscious, and this is making you sweat.

Some people sweat more and some have a really strong smell and that's a condition of the swear glands called hyperhidrosis, there are medications for it and also a surgical option to remove the glands. Shaving your armpits will reduce the smell.

I don't know why it happens but try using Secret Clinical Strength Advanced Antiperspirant Solid .. Apply it just before you go to bed and it should do the job!
