Disadvantages: child and adult proof catch
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 just a white spray tin with a blue push nozzle and the impulse logo wrote in black on the can.Not all that fancy just plain and simple, or so I thought. Now over the past 28 year's of my life ive come to the concept that body spray/spray deodorant is simple to use.IE raise arm,squirt at pit ,done. With this Impulse I had problems. I took off the cap ,raised my arm and instead of spray it just gargled and sizzed and then sort of frothed allover.At this point I checked to make sure that I had not picked up shaving foam or for a seal that I had not removed. It was then that I noticed a little catch on the side of the nozzle,at this point and a few strong french words that I turned to the back of the can where to my amazement where instructions.It said in picture form to pull catch up, turn nozzle to open position and spray. I suppose for many women this would be an easy process,but alas Im no ordinary woman due to the fact I bite my nails down to the bone.So after trying for 5 minutes I resolved to useing my teeth and then a kitchen knife.When that
ca tch came up I made sure it came off. There was no way I was going to go through that caper again. So back to the bathroom giving the can a good shake on the way.This time it sprayed nicly,like a soft mist that dryed instantly.And the smell was out of this world,loverly,very femimine,very fresh,very floral. Now after all this commotion on using the product I was quite amamzed on how long it lasted.I felt fresh all day.Infact ive felt fresh all week and I was very surprised when I had a shave and used it and it did not sting.I found out this is because it contains no alcohol and has been dermatologically tested. Of course with any airosol product like this there are cautions Ie Dont spray near eyes/ ouch Dont use on broken skin/ arrrh Keep tin out of strong sunlight/ kaboom Dont pierce or burn empty tin/ bang Dont smoke while using/ smoky bacon blisters And the main one Solvent abuse can kill/ u-r-dead. Impulse is made by Lever Faberge ltd. You can contact them on freephone number 0800 0852769 Or write to them at~ Consumer Bureau Leaver Faberge ltd Freepost Admail 1000 London SW1A 2XX. I will be contacting them and giving them some stick over that stupid catch design, but besides that its a good effective ,nicely fragranced product that I might try again, thanks for reading . love sammy
