NIVEA Stress Protect Deodorant Aerosol Review

For the past 12 months, I've been a loyal user of the Rexona Clinical Protection deodorant cream, and I love it. So, I introduced Niveas Stress Protection deodorant spray with a wee bit of trepidation.

I've always been somewhat wary of spray deodorants because a: I don't like the smell and b: I never feel as though they provide much in the way of protection.

But! I was pleasantly surprised by this little beauty. I certainly found that for best results you definitely need to apply the night before.

All in all, this is a good product and I would recommend it to anyone who likes a spray-on, but for me, I think I'll stick with my Rexona - but that's purely because I prefer a roll-on.

I have been using Nivea deodorants for a long time and it is the only brand that I use. I am not a really sweaty kind of girl but when it comes to summer and tight clothing, I need some help. The Nivea Stress Protect smells great! The effect of the deodorant is good too, but I do start to perspire after about 4 hours of application and I wasn't even doing big movements. It does keep odour away, but since it is not an anti-persperient, I did not expect that it would stop me from perspiring. NO white marks and zero wait time to dry.

After using this deodorant for 2 weeks now I have found it does actually do its job of preventing a sweat up when I'm stressed, the downside though it leaves a powdery residue on black and other dark clothing which isn't a good look. It would be great if they could make it a roll on version as well then I would probably buy it all the time.

I tested this product out during a pretty stressful time of the year: O week at university on top of my two jobs. "Stress protect" has a nice smell and seems to keep sweat under control however i didn't find it any more effective than my current deo. I may well buy it again when my current roll on bites the dust as i liked the fragrance, but the stress protection factor didn't seem to be any more effective than a more standard product.

So i kindly got the chance to trial the NIVEA Stress Protect Deodorant. I trialed it mainly when going out of the house, ie: for a walk, to town, doing groceries, active things. I love the smell, was fresh and vibrant if you ask me :) but sadly it didn't always work that well. i found myself smelling more so than what i would without it. then other days it would do as it said. I'm thinking maybe the roll on deodorant may solve that as it'd give me a more even layer. All in all though i loved the smell and 50/100 it done what it said

When I received the Nivea Stress Protect deodorant for review I was really excited to try it out. It claims to be "extra protection for stressful situations" and is meant to last for 48 hours.

Now my days have become rather stressful as uni has started and I'm working full time. I have to pretty much run from my classes to my job during the course of the day, so I thought, perfect! This little gem would keep me super dry and fresh feeling, even though I'm highly stressed out.

Not sure why Nivea has opted to put 48 hours though, because whilst this does keep you dry for about 1-2 hours, in my stressful state I could literally smell this heavy perfume scent after about 4-5hours and it was especially strong after heaving books and a brisk walk back to work.

I did trial this out for a week to get the best results - and unfortunately whilst its a good deodorant it doesn't do anything different to others on the market.

I think I had my expectations a bit high on this one, but it does not stand up to the "stressful situations" claim and most certainly doesn't last 48hours. I wasn't going to avoid showering though to put the 48 hour claim to the test but as I felt a bit damp and not well protected after a brisk fifteen minute walk, well that definitely means that it's not going to last 48hours for me.

I'd probably go for something like Rexona which I know keeps me dry no matter what rather than this particular one.

I normally use a roll on deodorant from another brand. Because up until now I hadn't found another brand that kept me smell free and dry. I have been sticking to roll on as I had found aerosols left a flacks reside on my skin and didn't soak into my skin.

This product did keep me smell free and dry for over a day, I didn't try it for longer as a showered.

This aerosol really impressed me as it didn't leave any reside. I had thought I needed a roll on deodorant so it would soak into my skin to work but this spray on worked as well.

As for working for stress sweating? I don't really notice whether I stress sweat so I can't comment whether it helps or not.

The only draw back for me not to consider buying this product again is the fragrance. It is a nice smell, reminds me of Jasmine, but it makes me cough a lot when ever I use it.

I would buy maybe a travel size of this product for travelling and my handbag.

The smell isn't overpowering and isn't too soapy smelling. Works as an effective deodorant and anti-perspirant but I didn't notice any particular difference in "stressful situations". All in all a good deodorant but nothing particularly special.

I don't usually use sprays because of white marks and over powering smells. This had neither. Not an unpleasant smell, it seemed to dissipate fairly quickly. Worked well as an anti-perspirant, certainly no wet pits mid funeral.
