Advantages: creamy soft on skin roll on

Disadvantages: beware aluminimum content

This product has the usual misnomer, ie calling itself a deodorant rather than being very clear that it is an antiperspirant with c.10% aluminimum chlorohydrate as an active ingredient. Nivea are not the only manufacturers to fiddle their words however.

Nivea roll-ons are creamy with gentle almost innocuous smells. Their unique selling point is gentle on the skin and so with the armpit it will be especially connected to women who shave. The product rolls on very creamily which is a more pleasant sensation on the skin than dryer antiperspirants or sprays. The products also sits 'thickly' on your skin so will take a minute to dry before putting on clothing- this could be an inconvenience for some.

I use this product when I need to be sure there will be no sweat marks in the office, so I only use it in summer. The quantity of aluminimum in the product is of serious consideration for women re breast cancer scares. I would recommend this creamy smooth easy to use product with its subtle smell for the days when you really do not want to sweat but skip it during the colder non-sweaty seasons or your private down time when sweat marks on clothing are not an issue.

Summary: as roll-ons go, Nivea is one of the best
