Anti-perspirant that works!

Advantages: It works!
Disadvantages: Range of scents isn't great.

...I ALWAYS used to use spray on anti-perspirants, but was getting fed up white marks all over my clothes & the spray ending up all over the bathroom, so I decided to give roll-ons another go. I tried a couple of different brands before Mitchum. I found them all really sticky & horrible to use (even the Mitchum), but have found that the stickiness seems to resolve itself with continued use of roll-ons. Perhaps it?s just a case of getting used to it, either mentally or physically, but get used to it I did. I have since stuck with Mitchum. It is deemed as being one of the more effective anti-perspirants on the market, & I for one have always had great results with it. The blurb on the bottle states that Mitchum provides 48hr protection?.yes, not just one day, but TWO. I?m afraid I can?t testify as to whether or not this claim is true...

Review of Mitchum Anti-Perspirant Deodorant

Lynx Dry Africa Anti-Perspirant Roll-On

Advantages: A decent roll-on...
Disadvantages: ...not much else!

...Having recently been to Reading Festival, many of you would be intrigued to know they had a blanket ban on aerosols above 100ml this year, meaning most of us smelly twenty-somethings had to buy a roll-on or pocket-sized spray to prevent the pungent smell of festivals setting in. So, rather than get the ridiculously priced Lynx "Bullet", I went for one of their roll-ons - the Africa brand anti-perspirant to be exact... The roll-on stands approximately four inches tall, with a silver screw cap which it rests on. The Africa range has green and red 'trim' to it on the front sticker, but other than that it's exclusively black and silver. After unscrewing the cap, it's nothing unusual - the clear roller ball has yet to be touched but by simply pushing it slightly it will start to roll and gather the anti-perspirant from inside the casing...

Review of Lynx Dry Africa Anti-Perspirant Roll-On

Lynx Dry Click Sharp Focus Anti-Perspirant

Advantages: Good smell, effective
Disadvantages: Quite pricey

...Being an early-twenties, pro-active male, I therefore sweat. Not profusely, not disgraceful, but these things happen. Deodorant, for all of it's scents, does not prevent this, nor does it cover it up, but antiperspirant does. Now, human sweat itself is, apparently, mostly odourless...until bacteria gets involved. This occurs in hot, humid conditions - e.g. under the armpits. I could at this point become all scientific, but this isn't a specific review on the ins-and-outs of antiperspirants vs. deodorants, but rather a look at one of the copious number of brands from Unilever's Lynx Dry range... First of all, here's the tag line for the brand... "Lynx Click Dry Sharp Focus Anti-Perspirant keeps you sharp, dry and focused all day long. The unique Click fragrance has a fresh and clean aroma to help you create an impact wherever you go. It...

Arms up Anti-Perspirant Deoderant

Advantages: Works really well, nice smell
Disadvantages: Takes a while to dry

...I never used to be very loyal to any brand of deoderant and didnt care if it was an aerosol or roll on - whatever was on offer when I needed it was what I bought - until I tried Mitchum anto-perspirant deoderant and have stayed loyer ever since (about 2 years now). I know it isnt a very nice subject but I used to suffer really badly from sweating (I still to) and found that no matter what anti-perspirant deoderant I used I still ended the day with nasty sweat marks under my arms - not very ladylike, anyway - those days are now gone and I can happily raise my arms above my head even at the end of a busy 8 hour shift. The Product The product is Mitchum Anti-Perspirant Deoderant - it comes in both a male and female variety, spray on or roll on and is either unscented or Powderfresh - I use the ladies Powderfresh roll on. I had never...

How to easily solve problem perspiration

Advantages: Mitchum is brilliant- it really works!! Is ideal for men and women
Disadvantages: none

...A letter in a problem page recently described how uncontrollable sweating was ruining the career prospects of a very distressed worker... The reply given was a waste of time reading. The answer is a modest, almost unheard of, product called Mitchum. This really does the job. No false advertising here. Or unwelcome niffs! Mitchum comes in a mid-green plastic container and is available in most chemists, Boots and Sainburys. Mitchum really works! Yes, it really does solve "problem perspiration". If you, like myself, have tried lots of different brands, that all claim to stop you sweating, that smell nice but leave you feeling uncomfortable, sticky, unprotected and smelly- just give Mitchum a go. I guarantee you will not need to continue the search for something that stops you sweating like a hog on heat. It is true that Mitchum is so...

Review of Mitchum Anti-Perspirant Deodorant

Any 'Effect' Would Be Good!!

Advantages: Pleasant scent.
Disadvantages: Isn't an effective anti-perspirant for me!

...I only ever buy deodorants when they are on special offer and therefore rarely stick to one brand and am not averse to giving new ones a try! I bought this one from Sainsburys quite a while ago when it was for sale at one third off the RRP of £1.95 for 50ml. ~ What does the packaging stage? ~ - Gentle care - 24 hour anti-perspirant protection - Softens skin for a close shave The info on the packaging is somewhat confusing for me as in one statement it implies that you can use this for underarm shaving; ? with natural avocado extract softening the skin and helping you get a close shave? whilst there is another statement of ?this is an anti-perspirant not a shaving product?. ~ My Experience ~ It has a screw top lid and a transparent glass bottle which enables you to see when you are close to finishing this. This is...

Review of Nivea Double Effect Anti-Perspirant

Avon Pro Ice Anti Persperant for men.

Advantages: cheap, smell nice, last a long time.
Disadvantages: None

...I started buying these sprays for hubbyas I already bought Avon for me. <The packaging> It is very simple you get a Light blue spray can with a Grey plastic pull off lid. On the front is the name Pro Ice and further down the words Anti Persperant for men and the word Deospray. In small letters at the bottom is the word Avon. On the back is the usual caution notes. <Smell > The spray has a very masculine smell and I detect a hint of musk, but cannot really pick up anything else. < Longevity> The smell lasts for a reasonable amount of time I sprayed the back of my hand before I started and can still smell it ( about 20 mins). The cans are 150ml and last for about two weeks. < Value > These sprays usually cost £2 each but I bought these on special offer for 5 for £6 which equates to £1.20. I think this is good value...

Review of Avon Pro Ice Anti Perspirant Deodorant for Men

Impulse Anti-de pong.

Advantages: 24 hour protection and a great smell.
Disadvantages: stupid catch on side of nozzle

...It's been realy nice weather lately and being hot it also leaves alot of us feeling sweaty.Now being a tipical female I hate nothing more than going around smelling like a turkish jockstrap.And last Friday was no exception. As usual we got up earlie to do shopping and then later as a treat, go to the cinema.But when we returned home to get ready to go out again I noticed that I was not smelling as rosey as I would of liked. And then horro struck, I had no anti de pong left.So with a quick wash I dashed out yet again to my local village store. Now it's only a small shop and is limited on certain items and the only spray that looked any good was Impulse oxygen anti -perpspirant deodorant with a smell called air. Being a total mug I paid £1.99p for a 150 ml can spray. There is nothing fantastic about the product's packaging, its...

Review of Impulse Anti-Perspirant

A sweet-smelling forty-eight hours

Advantages: Very long-lasting
Disadvantages: Can be pricey - shop around

...I've always used a roll-on anti-perspirant deodorant, but recently I've tried one or two of the cheaper store's own brand ones and felt that they weren't really doing the job as well as they might. So whilst in John Lewis, I had a look to see what else was available and found the Mitchum anti-perspirant deodorant that claims it is 'so effective you can even skip a day'. At the price of £1.77 it seemed worth trying. Another Ciao reviewer seemed happy with Mitchum but couldn't bear the thought of not washing every day. I decided that I wanted to see if the claims of forty-eight hour protection really were true. I used Mitchum for the first time after having a shower, on a day that I was going to work. After shaking the bottle, I applied it in the usual way. It seemed creamier than other roll-ons I'm used to using and took longer to dry...
