Rexona Clinical Protection Review

I did have good results with this product, but I'm not sure if it was because I was applying both at night (as is recommended) and in the morning, so doubling up on product. I've found if I do this with other deos I have the same results, so I'm not sure it's worth the $16 for something that doesn't last as long - I found I used this a lot faster than other products. My old flatmate swore by this product though, and I guess deodorants are really one of those things that differs for every person, you do have to find the one that works best for you.

one of the directions is that you should put it on after your evening shower and then you're good to go for the next day. I struggle with that idea as I'm a heavy sleeper and hate the idea of not putting deodorant on after my morning shower. It appeared to work most of the time but there were occasions where I still felt a bit sweaty

I loved this deodorant for combating sweaty armpits n body odour however after two weeks of use I noticed my armpits develops dark spots.... i stopped using it for a week and its slowly went away... but that's scared me off... :(

Up until recently, this and the Dove equivalent were the only antiperspirants that actually worked for me. They really are good at controlling sweatiness, better than any other form of deo that I've tried, and don't irritate my underarms, but now that I've discovered a Nivea aerosol that works almost as well, I don't really use it this much.

The three major cons (for me) with this product:

--Applying at night. I did sometimes use this in the morning, but it does work better if you use it like it says and apply at night, plus it takes quite a while to absorb completely. I usually shower in the morning, so it really doesn't fit well with my routine.

--White marks! This is really bad with darker clothes, as it just streaks everywhere. Not a confidence booster at all!

--Price. This is really expensive for a deodorant/antiperspirant, no way around it.

At this stage, I've got one of these which I use occasionally when I've got a really important occasion where I'm likely to be very nervous/sweaty, but otherwise I use my (much cheaper and more convenient) Nivea aerosol.

I suffer from excessive sweating constantly and find that this product works ok but when first applied it makes me sweat more so ends up looking gross under your arms. also leaves stains on clothing. It would work well for someone without a major sweating problem but not the best for myself.

I recently brought this, it is the first 'heavy duty' type of deodorant I've ever used. I have it in the 'shower fresh' scent which is quite a strong scent in my opinion.

I found it odd, while it kept me dry I didn't appreciate the strong scent it had. I also hate the feeling of it on my pits, I could feel its layer on my skin and I actually have to scrub it off in the shower! And I mean SCRUB. The first time I went to shave my pits it wasn't pleasant as I obviously hadn't scrubbed them hard enough! Maybe I apply too much?? I just really don't like the feeling it leaves on my skin.

It also transferred onto my black top :(

So I'm not really liking it, while it works I think I'll stick to my Nivea Stress Relief roll on.

i tried this product expecting it to work how they said it would. it worked well for a while but my skin didn't like the product.

$15+ for a Deodorant? Ya what now? Is there gold in them there tubes?

No, no gold that I saw. But maybe the money went into the Rexona Clinical Protection's fancy dispensing design? Instead of the usual aerosol or roller ball, you have to turn a wheel to click the product up and out. It took aaaages to get the first bit of product out, I wondered if mine was broken, but then the thick cream coloured cream poked out and I was able to swipe it over my pits. The instructions said you only needed two clicks per pit, so that's what I went with. The weird texture of the deodorant had me wondering if I was getting enough on me, but the results suggested I was, as I haven't had any perspiration issues when I've used this.

So if it worked, why don't I like it? It's the smell! I described it to my husband as smelling like 'yucky cheap toilet cleaner'. He sniffed it and came up with 'it smells like Council toilets'. It's just sweet, and chemically, and not at all enjoyable. Thankfully you don't really get whiffs of it unless you're smelling your pits to check for freshness. But it's enough to put me off. That, and the price...

Seriously, the price of this deodorant is - well, crazy. Yes it works, I didn't get all whiffy, but then again I don't get whiffy with my current deodorant.

So would I recommend? Yes. If you can afford it and are perhaps prone to excess sweat, or spend a lot of time running around. But to be honest, I'm not hugely sweaty, so I'll stick to my sub $4 deodorant.

This deodorant worked well and I could smell the scent of the deodorant all day. However I do still find I sweat through the deodorant, it doesn't smell bad but i'm still getting sweat patches :(

I quite like the stick application of this product, and the fact that you're smoothing on a layer of deodorant. The scent is very pleasant. It does the job very well keeping perspiration at bay for every day life.

The gripe I have (with most deodorants) is the white powder staining on the clothing in the arm pit area from this deodorant- particularly on dark clothing. It looks awful so you're reluctant to lift your arms up.

It's a lot of money compared to others, so only worth the money if you've got a perspiration problem that the usual roll-on's can't take care of.
