Mitchum Women's Clinical Deodorant Powder Fresh Gel Review

I had been on the look out for a clinical strength deodorant, to beat the sweat inducing heat of the harsh summers when I came across this.

It is usually on sale in the weeks that Rexona clinical protection is not.

I expected this to be similar, though was incredibly disappointed. Firstly, the packaging makes it hard to get any product out of it.

There is also something visually unappealing about the exterior package where it looks dated.

The fragrance itself is unpleasant.

I didn't find the product to be particularly effective either though that may in part be because I wasn't able to get much product out of it.

Overall, I would not buy this again seeing as I didn't manage to finish the one that I had purchased

I am a heavy sweater and this is the first deodorant I have found that I feel works for me. I have used Mitchum roll ons in the past and they give me a rash so was skeptical about this one but this does not. It is a really nice lightweight gel that drys quickly and I feel like my armpits remain dry all day, it has a really nice light scent and leaves no marks providing you wait a while before putting clothes on. It does say to put this on at night which I keep forgetting to do! The only gripe I have is that it does not seem to last long and its easy to use too much with the winding mechanism, It would be great if it could be a roll on. It is also on the expensive side but I am happy to pay the price for this product as this is the only clinical deodrant I have found that works well.

I usually use the regular Mitchum roll on but saw this was on special so thought I'd give it a try. The product definitely works, I didn't go 48 hours without showering so can't comment on that but it does last 24 hours. It kept me dry and didn't leave any marks on my clothing. It has a light baby powder scent.

The reason I won't be using this again is the packaging (or perhaps the mechanism design) is flawed. For myself, the product lasted me just 2 weeks and I was only applying a minimal amount. Whenever I opened the lid there was somehow always excess product that seeped out even though I always had it standing on a counter top (almost like someone was winding it up when I wasn't looking!). Compared to the roll on and other clinical protection brands I've tried which last me atleast a month. For this reason I won't buy again :(

I don't have a lot of issues with deodorant but this one hit everything darn thing on my nope list. I tried it only because it was on special and my regular, Rexona spendy one wasn't.

The deo comes in a skinnier bottle than the Rexona one, but they wind up from the bottom the same. The smell was quite pleasant and I didn't hate it, so I was positive I was going to enjoy using this.

The deo is a gel kinda deal rather than a white cream like my Rexona. I thought it was funky but once the day wore on I decided no, it was terrible. I tried this for a week and hated it every day. The gel stayed in a gel form and stayed wet on my pits, and it didn't cover up any odours which really annoyed me. The fact that I could smell myself after 2 uses in one day told me that this did not mesh well with my skin.

Also annoyingly, it didn't stop the wetness from sweat, as I am a sweaty beast. I wouldn't recommend this to any of my friends and I wouldn't buy it again. Ever.

I only use clinical deodorant as I am a smelly sweater, as opposed to heavy sweater. This is similar to the others but doesnt leave horrid white marks on clothing which is main reason for using it. I feel like these types of deodorant arent particularly good value for money as they seem to run out quick and can be hard to control the amount. Until something better comes along this is my first choice.

I tried this in the powder fresh scent. I love the scent of all Mitchum deodorants, this one included.

The gel is a curiously refreshing sensation when applied. I actually really enjoyed the cooling effect on my underarms.

I waited maybe 30-60 seconds before putting on my clothes for the day.

Throughout the day I definitely had no issues with body odour. So it definitely protects against BO. I am sad to say that I still had quite a bit of wetness and it left white marks on my clothes. I know it is really hard to find a deodorant that doesn't stain clothes, but I really had my hopes up for this one because it specifically claims to prevent staining.

Since taking up running and a more active lifestyle, I've discovered I need a stronger deodorant - as keeping fit is sweaty business!! . I usually use Mitchum deodorant - roller, but decided to try clinical.

It's fantastic at controlling the sweat, and keeping odor at bay with my exercising, and it's also great during the day on the warmer days, keeping me dry and no odor! I put this on at night so it gets to work while I sleep and let it do its thing!

My only gripe (hence not 5 stars) is the winding mechanism is a little stiff at times. I just use one click per arm. It is a little pricier, and definitely doesn't last as long as a roller - but it is great at controlling sweating - especially for the really active sweaters :-)

I've tried all the different brands of deodorant that offer clinical protection and this one is my favourite. It keeps me feeling fresh all day with no wet patches. It has a really nice subtle scent that reminds me of honey. It is pricey but for people like myself who sweat a bit, it is worth paying for. My only complaint is that the clicker dispenser can be quite hard to turn, sometimes I have to wrap a towel around my hand to get a good grip on it.

Sadly I prefer the much cheaper Mitchum roll on to this or the rexona 48hr. They perform exactly the same so save your money.

I usually use the rexona 48hr but it wasn’t on special so I went with this.. big mistake I should have just got the roll on or the rexona.

I like the roll on and it performs well for the price so perhaps I had high expectations but this was the pits.

The scent was a pleasant - slightly powdery, fresh, floral scent.

The tube itself was horrible. So hard to twist the screw to make some deodorant come out I had to use a towel to get a proper grip to twist.. honesty harder than a jam jar to twist this thing.. no joke.

I don’t think there is that much product in this for some reason so felt like it wasn’t as great a value for money as some other deodorants out there.

I also dislike that it doesn't twist out an even amount of product to spread.. I had a lot to use at the sides and hardly any in the middle. So harder to spread than butter to get a good even coverage. Ended up poking my pits to bits trying to smear it around.

And lastly.. the effectiveness. It works but only as well as their roll on. It wasn’t long lasting. I was finding I was sweating through this after about 18 hours.. whereas the rexona one is pretty true to being 48hours sweat proof.
