NIVEA Stress Protect Deodorant Aerosol Review

Too strong fragrance, competes with my perfumes. I normally I use Nivea roll on. The gas from the spray comes into the nose and is almost suffocating. I really loved the old fragrance Nivea had on the cream. Wish had that back and on deodorant.

I was excited to try the Nivea Stress Protect Deoderant Aerosol, however after spraying on for the first time I was left with little white clumps under my armpits... not ideal when wearing a back top!

I thought perhaps I had not shaken the can enough, I am used to spray deoderants so the issue was not that I was using too much, or spraying too closely to the skin. The next day I gave it another go, this time giving the can a really good shake first and keeping it further away from my skin. Again I was left with little white clumps - very disappointing!

I didn't feel it lived up to it's description. Over the past week we have had so pretty hot weather in Auckland and it lasted for about 2 hours, so I was reapplying several times a day. The rate at which I sweat is quiet average so I would hate to think what it would like for someone who sweats a lot. On a good note it smells nice. Did it protect better than any other deodorant - No. Please note my job is not overly physical but can be a little stressful.

Okay, so in fairness to this product I've been a lover and a user of a particular brand of Roll-On for many years, so the Nivea Stress Deodarant had a challenge ahead of it to really make me consider changing. I diddn't really feel like this lasted as long as a roll-on would either. Even though you know you only need a quick spray to ensure protection, I used up the can very quickly (and I ain't no stinker!) And spray deodarant does give me the feeling sometimes like im gassing myself everytime I spray!. I do feel like it definately stopped me sweating so I will give it credit for that, but odour protection-wise I still don't think it lived up to the hype unfortunately. I really wanted to give this more of a glowing review but I going to have to say that I'll be sticking with my current regime. Although Id be interested to try this again in Roll-On form??

For as long as it has been out i have used the Rexona Clinical Protection deodorant and it is the most amazing thing. I never sweat when i am wearing it. This Nivea product simply did not compare. I barely noticed a difference when i wore this. It didnt work when i was at dancing or at work or at netball. Disappointing.

So I'm one of the many who got my product late. I've spent the last three days with half my body bathed in this goop, to no real avail (Half & half to compare/contrast). It has decent scientific basis, ie, you sweat in certain areas more when under stress. However.... That sweat is most noticeable on your palms and soles. This deodorant doesn't adhere very well to those places. That kind of undermines your most opportune stress sweat testing patches. Not to mention making your shoes slippery!

Spraying it under my arms makes me feel a little anxious because of the amount of waste product which gets into my airways. This led me to discover that it tastes like baby powder, soap, and pillow, all at once. Not fun.

So, with slippery shoes, a bad emotional start, and a smell I didn't appreciate, I tried to carry on. On my other side was my fave Lush deo, which does the job and makes my underarms feel nice after a shave. The Nivea deo, it seems, increases irritation post-shave. Woohoo.

By the end of each day, I've been feeling hot and flustered. The deo stops some sweating, but that's your natural cooling system, so I was overheating instead! Good in winter, perhaps?? The sweat that did get through the Stress protection was not nice. It hadn't been deodorised at all! Yuck!

So, after three days of this madness, I am putting down the little can, ignoring the company and their separate problems, and refusing to allow anyone I feel kindly toward to buy this particular Shenannigan.

If you have had luck with this one, bless your little wallet, because this stuff is pretty reasonably priced. That's all I have nice to say about this, so I'll stop saying things, now.

I didn't really think this product was any better than other aerosol deodorants I have tried in the past...I'm more of a roll on gal myself. I find using aerosols don't keep me sweat free during the day and this was no different. I will definitely be sticking to my trusty roll on

This product unfortunately did nothing for me because of the overwhelming perfume. As soon as I sprayed it I was surrounded by the smell and as the day went by it didn't reduce at all. So really I have no idea if it worked or not as there was no way I would have been able to smell BO if there was any! I prefer unperfumed deodorants.

Unfortunately, this product did not live up to the hype of its advertising. While it has a lovely smell to start with, its protection against sweating is limited. It did not work as well as my usual deodorant during physical activity - running and gym work outs, and also did not seem to work very well against getting hot (when sitting in the sun for an extended period of time). I found that I needed to reapply the product more often than my usual product.

I dont find anything extra special or stress-protect-y about this product. It lasted about 5hrs before getting a bit stale and it didn't appear to do anything out of the ordinary that a regular deodorant doesn't do. Might work better for others as I like a really high strength deodorant, but this wan't for me.
