Rexona Women Diamond Invisible Dry Roll On Review

When I recieved the deodorant I was surprised as from a first glance, it looks like a male product. It also smelled quite masculine too so I was hoping it would be long lasting. Unfortunately, it doesn't last more than 6-8 hours :( and I also don't think it stops yellow marks... as my white t-shirts now have a vague yellow stain under it. Every deodorant works differently on different people and I'm just disappointed this one wasn't for me.

Ugh. I feel horrible saying that but that is how I felt after using this. I am not a fan of most roll ons (but I do have a few favs) so it had a tough battle on it's hands especially when I was also trying it's sister the spray deodorant.

The bottle itself I liked its small, easy to use and sleek looking. I liked the black packaging.

The product? Well..... Not so much. Let's start with some positives before we go into why I didn't like it.

I shaved.... I braced.... I waited... but no sting! YAY! Phew.... because that really was asking a lot. Sacrificing my arm pits for the good of BR ;) I didn't notice any marks on my clothes....

BUT when I put this on I was left with wet armpits for an abnormal amount of time..... like a long time people. I was left walking around looking like I was part monkey fanning my arms and regretting my choices. When it finally dried..... with some help... it did wear ok ish. I say ok ish because I had to reapply which meant I had to monkey fan again and it all goes around and around. I probably wouldn't have minded reapplying if it dried quicker? I mean topping up a deodorant is ok if it goes on quickly right?

The smell is not for me. A tad too strong like the spray this demands attention - you know you are wearing this and I found it clashed with my perfume (not cool) so I was reluctant to wear it. Why does it get to dictate what perfume I wear? hahahaha.

It is a reasonable price but I think I will stick to the clinical stuff which I am loving. It wasn't good enough to shake me from my norm.

This deodorant didn't leave any marks on my clothing, but i felt its anti antiperspirant properties weren't really up to scratch, i am usually an aerosol deodorant wearer and i only ever have to put it on once a day, unless i exercise or something, but with this roll on i had to apply 2-3 times a day on no exercise days as i felt it sort of just wore off, wouldn't bother repurchasing, it does smell nice though

I was pleased to try a new type of deodorant, I have stuck with the same one for years. However, I was not impressed enough with the Rexona Women Diamond Invisible Dry Roll on to swap from my trusty Mitchum. I immediately didn't like the packaging. I would have actually assumed that it was male deodorant. It looks exactly the same as the Rexona range for males. The smell was also quite masculine, I didn't like it and found it quite overpowering. Interestingly enough my boyfriend really liked the smell! It kept me dry through most of the day, but I didn't find it kept me "fresh" through the day like my normal deodorant. Definitely no white marks though, although I've not really ever found that to be a problem.

All in all I would not buy this myself. I think there are better deodorants out there, and I personally prefer an unscented variety. It's all relative though, some people might like the scent, and if you were not particularly active through your day (I am) then it could be right for you.

This product didn't provide me protection for 24 hours at the least. I had to re-apply multiple times and that became a problem as it claims it will provide me with 48h protection. I am quite disappointed and probably wouldn't use it again unless I really needed too.

I hate giving bad reviews, I always feel like such a meanie, especially for trial products but needs must.

As you can probably tell I am not a fan. I did enjoy the packaging, it’s sleek and black and I like that it sits upside down so you won’t have to balance it upside down to get the last of it out, and it’s cool twist lock opening mechanism.

I also like that it worked. It’s been super summery (oh how I miss winter when it gets like this), and I’ve been doing some intense exercise. I haven’t noticed any embarrassing lapses in deodorant performance though which is really the most important thing at the end of the day. It’s not the kind of deodorant you can put on in the AM one day and then shower in the PM 36 hours later and place your full trust in though, you will need to re-apply.

What turns me off about the product is a couple of petty things, but hey, it’s a tough saturated market and I can afford to be fickle – I am the consumer afterall.

Firstly the smell. Somehow the same smell that I quite enjoyed in spray form comes across a little too masculine in roll-on form. It’s quite strong and musky or a female scent and I think it would clash a little with certain body lotions or perfumes.

The other dislike, and the most unforgivable in my eyes, is that it takes a looooong time to dry. An hour later one night I still had wet armpits and had to fan them and keep my arms up so they would dry. I’ve never had this problem with a deodorant before to this extent and it was really annoying.

The product claims not to leave marks. I’ve actually never had this problem with any product so I’m not sure if it is true to it’s word there but my impression of it was that it had a really opaque look when I applied it that seemed like it would stain clothes.

I’ve actually never tried Rexona before because it’s usually the most expensive deodorant. Even though it’s only by a few cents I had it in my mind that Rexona is a premium brand and this really hasn't lived up to that sadly.

I'm a SUPER sweaty person, so I was rather skeptical to begin with I have only been able to use one deodarant with 0 perspiration. This was great for the first day or two, then I sorta became immune to it. Will continue to use it every third day and see how I get on!

I was really happy to receive this in a trial from BR. When I'm in the market for a deodorant I am after something quite strong (usually the Clinical Strength ones) so I was intrigued to see how this would work for me. I especially like the idea of it being 48 hour protection.

The packaging for this is actually really nice. I like the black plastic packaging. I really like the way the lid is at the bottom so all of the product goes onto the roll on ball so you never end up rolling on something without product on it. The lid also clicks on to the product really tightly which is great, especially for travel. I also found that the roll on dispenses a good amount of product which is great.

When I first smelt the product I thought 'ew'! I really thought it smelt a bit manly and musky and really wasn't my cup of tea. But luckily once I rolled it on I didn't find the scent nearly as offensive. However it was still quite a strong scent, I hate when things interfere with my perfume. Like others I did find it took a while to dry, but I usually apply at night when wearing my dressing gown so it has time to dry down before I go to sleep. Also in the morning I apply right at the start of doing my makeup and hair so it has plenty of time to dry down. I haven't had any problems with white marks on black or yellow marks, however that is the sort of thing that comes with quite some time so I would have to test this out for longer. But it is great that you don't have to worry about it getting on your clothes while it is drying.

Deoderant wise it definitely didn't last 48 hours on me. It barely made it through the work day. I didn't end up particularly smelly, but it was worse than my usual version. I won't be repurchasing this due to the smell and that it doesn't work quite as well as my Clinical Protection versions. But if you don't need something extra strength this could possibly work for you.

I was interested in trying out the new Rexona Women Diamond Invisible Dry Roll-on as I have used Mitchum's on and off for years and keep going back to it. The packaging is sturdy, masculine but practical. The colour is not very feminine at all so it is not particularly appealing. The fragrance is an unusual one and tends to be slightly on the masculine side as well (although hubby disagreed on this one and said he would never wear it). Application is easy and it dries fairly quickly. I am accustomed to using an unscented fragrance so during the day when I did get hot the slight fragrance became unappealing and made me feel as though I needed to shower. No stain marks were visible although I do believe it may take a period of time for these to become visible on clothing if they are going to. What did surprise me that was after washing on a delicate wash I was still able to detect a light fragrance on my top - not at all appealing, but it did keep me dry! I think overall this is a middle of the range product, and you get what you are paying for. I definitely wont finish the product but have popped it into a bag in the boot for emergencies.
