I recently brought this, it is the first 'heavy duty' type of deodorant I've ever used. I have it in the 'shower fresh' scent which is quite a strong scent in my opinion.
I found it odd, while it kept me dry I didn't appreciate the strong scent it had. I also hate the feeling of it on my pits, I could feel its layer on my skin and I actually have to scrub it off in the shower! And I mean SCRUB. The first time I went to shave my pits it wasn't pleasant as I obviously hadn't scrubbed them hard enough! Maybe I apply too much?? I just really don't like the feeling it leaves on my skin.
It also transferred onto my black top :(
So I'm not really liking it, while it works I think I'll stick to my Nivea Stress Relief roll on.
Like those deodorant ads say "Sweating was an issue for me”, WAS being the operative word there. I was a constant sufferer of the underarm sweat mark as a teen. No matter what top I wore, no matter how much deodorant I used, what the temperature was, how much activity I was doing, I ended up with THAT wet mark. I had gotten to the point where I was carrying around an extra shirt to change into as well as having to visit the ladies room to dry my underarms throughout the day to try to avoid creating a wet mark and needing to change into the other top. And all of this was from just walking around during the day; don’t even get me started on what happened when I exercised. I had tried switching to using a men’s antiperspirant as I figured it might be stronger to no avail as it either didn’t quite cut it for the prevention of perspiration or the variety available came with “guy smellies scent” which wasn’t really my thing. For years I simply had to suffer through checking myself in the bathroom every few hours. Then I saw this come out and immediately tried it following the instructions for “the night before application” and went off to work. I continued doing my regular ladies room visits to check how I was doing and was surprised and relieved to find I was not as damp as usual. Over the next few days it reduced even more as my skin became accustomed to it and sweat production has seemingly reduced. I never experienced any irritation as I kept to the instructions and avoided using it directly after shaving my underarm area, and have to date not had any other negative effects. After leaving school and going to work in a corporate environment your day to day image maintenance needs to be at a high standard and there was no way I would have been able to go to work had this sweating still been an issue for me, this product has been a godsend for my confidence levels in my day to day life.
Tips: Follow the instructions and use after your nightly shower, or before you go to bed. They tell you to do it that way for a reason, it works!!
