Yes and No to Dry Armpits

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.

Tips: It would be worth keeping an eye out for it on special and purchasing several if it's a good reduction.

Can see why its that price now!

I received this in my March Beauty Review Box and was like 'ooo its that expensive deodorant, this will be interesting!' I had never tried it before purely because of the price point and I believed my other deodorant was doing a great job. I have worn this each day for over a week and I can see why it is that price point it is amazing! The formula is a cream finish that you push up through the built in dispenser by twisting the bottom of the product. Once applied it doesn't leave a sticky feeling like some other deodorants do. The scent lasts all day making you smell nice and clean whilst you armpits feel fresh and dry. I love the product and it does do the job well, as I dont have a problem with excess sweating I will stick to my original product but this will be great for hot summer days or when I am playing sport. One thing I did notice after using the product for a while, when I showered my armpits felt a bit dry as if I had used a cheap soap on them to clean which was a bit frustrating.

Tips: Don't apply more than two clicks, at first it doesn't seem like much product has come out, but that's all you need for it to work wonders :)

Effective and gentle on skin

i was lucky enough to score this product in my March Beauty Box and have been pleasantly surprised. I have used Mitchum deodorant for the past 5 or so years and truly believed nothing could compete. Trust beauty review to come up with the goods. The Rexona clinical strength deodorant is incredibly effective, dry to touch immediately after application and gentle on skin - everything you want in a deodorant.

I trialled the summer strength stick and loved that you only wind up as much as you need, the applicator is gentle and I can get dressed immediately without having to worry about clothing being marked. I feel and smell fresh at the end of the day - even in humid conditions or after exertion, so I would say it is a top notch product!

Didn't Work For Me

I think putting a deodorant, especially such a pricey one, in the BRBB was a really cool idea and I'm SO sad it didn't work for me. Reading the other reviews it obviously works for most people, which is why I would recommend it to a friend. The other 2 ratings only got a 1/5. To start off I liked the packaging and I liked the way it twists up. It took forever to get the product to the top the first time, however, and I honestly thought mine was broken. Finally it gets to the top so I put two twists on. The next day I tried more. The next day, even more. No matter how much I use it just doesn't stop me from sweating. I really liked the smell but the product sucks on me, so I wouldn't buy it again, ESPECIALLY for the price.

Effective and great

I was so happy whenI saw this inside the Beauty Box. I have been a fan of this deodorant since I switched from the roll on form which never worked for me. This has been tried and tested by me and I love it. The price is a bit steep but I was willing to pay full price for it because it is that good. It keeps me dry all day and the scent is lovely. I have tried the Mitchum one too but I didn't like that as much.

Creamy goodness.

This product has an incredibly creamy formula that you wind up to the top of the dispenser, as I have only otherwise used a roll on deodorant this was a great new experience for me. The formula did not irritate my skin, or leave me feeling dry and itchy.

The version sent out in the March Beauty box is the 'Summer Strength' version or at least the one I received was and it has a nice light 'deodorant' scent.

Disclaimer: I cannot comment on the clinical sweat protection benefits of this product as I am not a heavy sweater. However I did feel like it worked better at the gym for me than my regular deodorant!

Tips: Due to the creamy formula this deodorant dries so fast that you don't end up marking your clothes with wet deodorant.

I will be repurchasing for this factor alone!

Rexona Clinical Deodarant

Rexona is one of my favourite deodarant Brands. When I saw this in my Beauty Box I was excited because I knew it was a highly rated product. If I was going to buy rexona I would normally go for their anti persperant spray.

Rexona deodarant comes in a classic box. I opened the box to find this rexona plastic container. It has a lid on it that can be removed to put the deodarant on. On the bottom of it is a twistable central locking to diperse the deodarnt from this. Directly on the top of it is some perferated holes for the deodarant to come out of.

Application with this product was tricky for me at first. I read all the instructions clearly listed on the back. Tick yes I'm twisting it right. So when the deodarant comes out onto your skin it's like a powdery whitish texture. The scent of it is a mild smelling smell. It's called Summer Strength. To be honest my body odour under my armpits is stronger in the summer. With wearing it all day the smell just sort of mixed in with it. I'm thinking oh man whats wrong with me lol. It just wasn't working for me. So I tried it at night and it did work for me. I don't sweat as much at night not sure if this is why it worked or not. The white rexona paste does stain clothes. It was a bit of a bummer.When I use Rexonas sprays it works for me.

My results were mixed. It worked in the night more than the day. I had no irritations at all. Even after shaving my armpits still no irritation. I wouldn't pay this amount for a deodarabt. I have enjoyed using it and I will keep using it to test it further.

Rexona Clinical Protection

I too received this in my beauty box and was excited to give it a go. It took me a bit to get it working, you have to wind quite a long way to get it started. I felt the box was unnecessary and just pointless packaging.

I had mixed results with this. On the good side I loved that it does not leave that slimy sticky feel under your armpits like a roll on does. I like how you wind it up to get just the amount you want and I like the subtle scent it has that does not overpower perfumes etc. I applied the recommended amount in the morning and found it did a pretty good job throughout most of the day but by evening I started to notice it becoming less effective and as I am not used to applying any at night by the morning there was a slight odour. Overall I do like the product but found it not as strong or long lasting as my regular roll on. I see why they recommend applying more at night but I don't like wearing any at night. I am not a big sweater so I can't comment on if it keeps you drier as claimed.

I don't think I would rush to buy this product mainly due to the price but I will keep using this one to see how long it lasts and whether it ends up being cost effective.

Tips: Experiment with the recommended amount as you may need to use more and apply more often

Passes the gym test

I was excited to try this after receiving it in my March beauty box and wasn't disappointed. I found that the twist dispenser a little tricky at first and it is very different than anything else I have tried but once I had figured it out and was abld to dispense the right amount it applies easily and is quite dry compared to other roll ons which is good and once on it really protects. I applied this before heading to the gym and it has a subtle fresh scent which I could still smell after a very sweaty workout so I know it worked well. I have been using this since and always find it really works great. Highly recommend if you don't mind paying a bit more for a product that really works

My Fav Deoderant

I have been using this product and its opposition the Dove Clinical Protection range for years and I love them. I found that simple roll on deodarants did not work for me anymore, they would wear off in a few hours. This product really lived up to its name, it keeps me smelling fresh for 24 hours and reduces the level of sweating, I would not use anything else! My favourite scent is Everyday Fresh but all the scents are lovely

Tips: These are normally about $15 each but every month or so they are on special for $10 at countdown and new world so look out for the specials and stock up!
