Rexona Clinical Protection Review

I was excited to receive this in my beauty box and was keen to try it out. I sweat probably a bit above average and so was interested to find out how well this product would cope.

Firstly I didn’t really like the packaging and definitely don’t like so much plastic on one product. I feel like the application is unnecessarily complicated, especially as the old school roll on works perfectly well and this is not an improvement. Admittedly the instructions were helpful and the product did glide on easily once it is forced to the top.

The scent is pretty and fresh and I liked it a lot.

The product is a white cream, and once applied does not feel sticky as some antiperspirant products can.

I found the product worked well and I didn’t have any break through sweating, even after walking/gardening/yoga.

Does it do what it said? It says clinical strength wetness protection, well I don’t know what 'clinical strength' actually means but I don’t end up with wet armpits so I guess that's a tick. 'Motion activated odour protection', well I’m not really sure what that means either, but when I was moving I didn’t notice any sudden odour or wetness so I guess that’s a tick, and 'heat resistant', well nothing major changes when my body temperature changes so I guess that's a tick as well. The instructions recommend using it at night for optimal performance, but I didn’t as I like my skin to breathe at night, and the product is chemically laden so I'm not keen to use it when I don’t have to.

All up, its quite a good product but I usually experience much the same standard from a much cheaper product so for me its a product I wouldn’t go out and buy, mainly because I can't see how I could justify paying $15 for a product that does the same as my usual $4.49 - $4.99 on-special roll ons. And I don’t like that it has more packaging and plastic than most anti-perspirants. I'm not sure I would recommend it to a friend, most likely I would mention I'd tried it and explain the positives and negatives rather than giving it as a recommendation.

From reading the other reviews I've come to the conclusion I must be the only one who didn't like it or did I just get a dud?

The smell of the Summer strength deodorant is beautiful, its not too harsh and smell like you are fresh out of the shower.

I'm not sure what was happening but every single time i applied it it came out with all these weird little bits over my underarm, its almost grainy, I've tried using less etc but I got the same result. I just end up wiping it off so I'm not sure how long it lasts.

I also got slight white marks on my black singlets so that wasn't a good time.

I really am not a fan of this deodorant. To be fair, I do not have a big issue with sweating so I did not really get the real benefits that is provides.

One of the negatives for me was the dispenser - it doesn't release product evenly or easily and some of the holes would clog and need to be scraped off before use. It would kind of crystallize and then there would be chunky bits of it left on my underarms and white marks on my tops.

It didn't have a lot of product and it ran out very quickly, but I was actually kinda relieved when it was finished so I could get back to my normal deodorant.

This a cream to powder formulation, where you just turn the base and the cream goes through the holes on the head of the deodorant for you swipe on your underarms, once there it dries to a powder. The smell is fresh and I'm not really a fan of it. It does seem to keep away the sweat but this is too strong to me for everyday use. If I was a heavy sweater then yes this would be higher on the list for use but call centre work does not mean heavy work out and I can get away with a lighter product. When I have washed my underarms if there is any hair there it seems to make it squeaky clean, another not a favourite thing. It has been years since I used Rexona so I will look at the brand again but not this product.

I have a very strong smell,and I can say that it works. But (I don't know if it is because it is antiperspirant) after a couple of weeks using it I started to feel my underarm a bit sore. It seemed if it was a swollen ganglion or something like this. I stopped the use and when it disappeared I used it again. And it appeared again. So I stopped definitely the use of this product. Maybe for other people it's good,but definitely not for me.

I was recommended this by my mum and sister who use it religiously. But I didn't find it too be any better than my previous deodorant which had a significantly lower price point! Will be switching back to my original brand, which also leaves no residue. When I first used this I wasn't use to waiting for it to dry/being careful with black clothing, and ended up with some on my black singlet (have since learnt!). Overall it did do what it said but for the price I wouldn't repurchase.

I had huge expectation for this product! But its just like any other deo out there. Smells good tho but abit pricey! Its just good and that is it.

I unfortunately am one that suffers from excessive persperation. Whether I sit down all day or run a marrathon, i sweat. I constantly have to check to make sure I haven't got sweat patches, and can very rarely wear coloured tshirts etc because of it, not to mention being constantly self conscious because of it. So when Clinical Protection came out I thought this might just be my lifeline, my life saver... i must say i was a bit disappointed. While it did reduce the sweating it didn't reduce it enough to make me feel comfortable. It does however smell lovely and radiates the same smell when you sweat which is better than body odor.

This product was ok. Admittedly it took me a few minutes to figure out how it worked but I got it in the end. It does work like it was supposed to but personally I only used it for two days before I started to get a burning/pinching sensation under my arms. It worked well for my sister but I think I may have been allergic to something in it to get the reaction that I did. I ended up having to wash it off. It did stop me from sweating but I won't be using it again due to my reaction to it. I would have loved to be able to continue to use this product however as I'm unable to I will stick to buying it for my sister since it seems to work well for her.
