Advantages: Works a treat!
Disadvantages: Quite pricey
In my (limited) spare time, I have started trying out products as a BzzAgent where I have to share my experiences of the product with others. The product that I have currently been sent to try out is this Sure Maximum Protection for Women, which you can purchase for around £5 for a 45 ml, capsule in most supermarkets and chemists. Now, this is a lot more than the price of a usual anti perspirant but this has been designed to give that added protection that everyday deodorants don't, especially for those that sweat a lot!
Unlike other anti perspirants, this product comes boxed. It is a dermatologically tested TRIsolid cream. This product claims to offer twice the protection against sweat compared to other leading anti perspirants which is quite a big claims and has 'scientifically proven wetness protection which is supposed to offer you up to 48 hour wetness protection. As well as offering this extra protection, the product also includes moisturising ingredients to keep skin in good condition as well as 'odour fighting' technology to keep you smelling fresh.
I am, and always have been a big fan of Sure protects. Sure has been the only brand that I have found that gives me protection against sweat that doesn't wear off and lose effect the more I use it, so I was very keen to try out this product. I would say that in warm weather and in difficult and stressful situations I am a person who would sweat quite a lot, and am very self conscious about that, and there have been times when no anti perspirant has prevented me for getting that sticky smelling odour when I have been in a very warm/stressful situation.
Sure suggests that you apply this product at night before going to bed. That is not to say that you can't apply it in the morning, but if you apply it at night, it has time to take effect, and even after a morning shower, there is no need to reapply, as the protection will last into the next day. Now, I have tried both. I have put the product on the night before and then showered in the morning and not put it on, although I have to say that I was checking all day that I still smelt fresh, but I certainly didn't feel sticky or sweaty at all, although I suppose we are not exactly in a heat wave at the moment, but even just doing everyday tasks or taking my daughter out for a walk I still felt fresh. I have also simply put it on in the morning after my shower, particularly when I have forgotten the night before, and it certainly keeps me very fresh all day.
I tend to always use an aerosol rather than roll on, mainly because I feel that a roll on takes too long to dry in the morning when I am in a hurry, however, that does not appear to be a problem with this product, which is a BIG plus in my book. I can apply this product at night or in the morning, and put my clothes straight on without leaving the cream to dry.
All in all, I really like this product. Obviously the big test would be during some very hot weather or very stressful situation, neither of which I have been in at the moment, but in terms of carrying out day to day tasks this anti perspirant has certainly worked in terms of keeping me feeling fresh all day and smelling sweet, which to be honest is all I need from a deodorant. If you are very bothered by sweat at any time of year or situation, then paying five pound is nothing when you get freshness all day. Would I buy this product all the time?? Probably not simply because of the high price tag, but I will certainly buy one when I go on holiday and want to smell sweet in my sleeveless summer clothes in hotter weather.
Summary: A great product for those needing that added protection
