NIVEA Stress Protect Deodorant Aerosol Review

I am one of those people who always gets sweat patches (even in non-stressful situations). This deodorant is ok, better than normal ones but not as good as the Rexona Clinical Protection. I liked that this deodorant gave no white marks on the clothes, but I still felt sticky after a stressful day at work. Not sweat patches but sticky. I also didn't like the smell of it, too strong. It wasn't all that effective at the music festival I went to in the weekend either (but really what deodorant is!?).

It was a pretty good product over all. I didn't feel any sweat from my body the entire day. Rather than being 48 hour protect, it is more of a one day protection thing. The spray fragrance is light and not cloying however, the aerosol spray comes in concentrated bursts rather an a gentler spray.

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 take this whole 'anti-perspirant' game pretty seriously. My standard routine involves a clinical protection roll-on followed by a reasonably heavy-duty anti-perspirant aerosol, before I even get to the perfume. I'm always keen to try a new product, so I was pleased to give this a go.

It's good. The scent is very mild and inoffensive, and it feels quite 'gentle' on the skin - if that makes sense (similar to the Dove anti-perspirant spray, for those who have tried it).

However, as the day wore on, I didn't feel like it was giving me quite the same level of long-term protection as the anti-perspirant I currently use (Rexona Sport). I've since returned to using that and can confidently say that the performance of the Nivea spray was not enough to get me to switch brands.

That being said, I think I am a bit of a special case. So, bearing that in mind, and the fact that we're in the middle of a fairly warm summer, I would suggest at least giving it a go - especially if you haven't found an anti-perspirant that you're really happy with yet. I'm sure it will be ideal for some people - just not for me!

I am surprised with this product, it smells quite good. It's light and soft smelling and quite refreshing when you spray it on as well, which is great. It's been rather hot lately and it has done it's job thorougly even while I'm out working, and it also lasts as long it says! Wow! I am a little concerned about exact how good for you something is that prevents you from sweating (as in what it does to your pores and the negative effects) so I wouldn't use it every day but it's great for days that are really important. But apart from that, terrific product and it really does work well!

A decent antiperspirant. Gentle on your skin, dries quickly and smells nice and fresh.

Probably wouldn't purchase it myself, as I don't really sweat much.

I found this to be a great product, it has a nice fresh smell and doesnt leave any residue, i cant say i have been in any really stressful situations but the weather has been very hot and it has given me great protection from sweat and body odour in my busy job. The only downfall is that sometimes when you spray it it doesnt come out so well, you need to give it a shake and give it another go, whether this is just a fault in my aerosol or a more wide spread problem i am unsure of, either way it isnt a big enough deal to deter me from using it again. I would highly recommend!

I don't smell too bad when I sweat, but I did take not that while using this spray I didn't smell. It didn't stop me from sweating by the end of the day so I wouldn't say it lasts 48 hours. I would use this body spray again if I had the chance to, but I doubt I would buy it myself.

I really liked this product! It was perfect for when I was on the go during the day and felt like I needed to freshen up a little. I love the smell of this product too! I will defiantly be purchasing this product to pop in my handbag for when i'm on the go.
