NIVEA Stress Protect Deodorant Aerosol Review

So i put this on after my shower sunday morning, did my usual house work then went to work sunday night, had a really busy night, i could smell the fresh smell though out the hole day, right now is monday night i have not used anymore since sunday morning have worked another nights work and i still smell fresh. Really is a good product.

Just like most aerosol deodorants, the initial spray can be a little chilly. I found this to be similar to other products, does what it's supposed to with no fuss. Leaving it to dry before putting on clothes is a pain, but necessary if you want to avoid white marks.

I have a very busy life, I have two kids, work part time and am trying to start a business so I have a pretty stressful life! This deodorant did exactly what it said, I stayed fresh all day long! No sweating and definitely no smell! Would definitely use this again!

Last all day,even when i went to the gym. Has a nice smell and doesn't leave any white stains under the arm on t-shirts. Will differently buy it.

Definitely worked well protecting against sweat. I even skipped my daily shower to see how well it did over a 48 hour period as I was dubious, but I could still notice it working. It does have a very overpowering fragrance, especially for the first few hours which meant I couldn't smell my perfume I had put on first, but it wasnt unpleasant. Just a bit strong.

The Good. Great packaging, and the sample size I got is great for chucking into your handbag if you want to carry it around, maybe for stressful situations like an unexpected work meeting or something? Smells really nice and fresh. I wore it on a Monday to work, frantic day and still felt 'shower fresh' in the afternoon (but that's not different to my current antiperspirant). The bad. Wowee, its like spraying a fire extinguisher into your armpits, there is a lot of pressure there. Although I am a fan of the scent, it is overpowering when sprayed on in a small room such as a bathroom. I felt like all the air had been sucked out of the room and replaced with deodorant! The ugly. It definitely didn't deliver on the 48 hour part. I don't know if this is designed just for stress and so other activities that involve sweating (ie. going to the gym) are not its main focus?? I found that after a day at work and then a gym session, there was no sign of the antiperspirant at all. I gave it another chance though and didn't hit the gym this time. However, still wouldn't rely on it for 48 hour protection! Maybe the roll on would be more effective?

Unfortunately as with most deodorants the "48 hour effective anti-perspirant" promise doesn't really come through - though it smells pleasant so that's a good start. It does alright for general day wear but I'm not quite sure if it stands up to a busy work day. This morning I biked to work, walked up and down at least 10 flights of stairs and walked a good few km's around the hospital I work in. It lasted alright but I'd stress this is more of a generic everyday deodorant than a heavy duty antiperspirant.

It's quite weird to me to do a review of deodorant. I normally use a Nivea roll-on, have done for many moons and quite happily and so it's been a while since I've had to wonder if it's working.

Being conscientious, I decided it necessitated random pit-checks.

Always known for my class, me.

And I can truly attest that whilst the rest of me was in a truly sweaty mess thanks to the humidity, my pits were...I'm unsure what scent it was, but what it was not was ick.

And that's about as detailed as I want to get.
