Rexona deodorants: description, series and tips for use

Perhaps in modern society it is difficult to find a person who would not hear about Rexona deodorant. Even if you did not use this means of protection against sweat, then you probably saw the advertisement, especially since this brand appeared in 1908 (!). In 1996, antiperspirant for women appeared on the Russian market, and in 2002, men were able to get acquainted with Rexona for Men. How the brand’s products have changed over almost 20 years of presence on the market, whether they are still popular, whether they meet the declared characteristics - this is our talk today.

The task of any anti-sweat remedy is to protect against the appearance of an unpleasant odor and wet spots on clothing. Over the years, the company has developed a large number of protective equipment to achieve this effect. Wherein Rexona marketers position their products as innovative, consisting of quality components. This should guarantee reliable protection against unpleasant odors and perspiration.

The second feature of the brand is the variety of forms. The manufacturer offers not only different types of active substance (sprays, capsules, gels, sticks, creams), but also different forms of packaging (aerosol cans, napkins, pencils, ball deodorants).

The company's specialists are constantly improving their design: first used upside-down spray, female-shaped spray, new Ferrari men's deodorant, very similar to the design of a real machine.

A wide range is another feature. The manufacturer did not stop only on products for women - there are men's lines, as well as funds for adolescents (generation Z).

Rexona has created hygiene products for people with an active lifestyle, playing sports, experiencing constant physical activity. In such cases, it is important not only to prevent an unpleasant odor, but also traces of sweat on clothing. For this, entire series of product have been created.

Speaking about the price of all forms of deodorants, it is worth noting that the product is available both in price and in retail chains. This is not the cheapest product, but you cannot call it expensive either.

To achieve the effect of dry armpits and the absence of an unpleasant odor Rexona has a complex chemical composition that includes up to 30 components. One way or another, different components are responsible for preventing the growth of fetid bacteria, drying the skin, narrowing pores, slowing down oxidative processes, preserving the effect. In some cases, perfumes are used, but there are also odorless options.

Roller deodorants include castor oil in a water-soluble form that softens the skin and controls moisture. Hard sticks become antiseptic, homogeneous due to octadecanol. If tocopherol was found in the composition, then the manufacturer took care of softening the skin, since this is vitamin E.

When buying a deodorant, we pay attention to the composition and often start to panic, seeing the words “aluminum” or “zinc” on the label. The reason is the widespread belief that these components affect health, even to the most sad results. But experts say that the maximum that such a tool can harm is to clog pores. As a result, sweat gland inflammation. To prevent this from happening, you need to regularly and thoroughly wash off the film, which is formed as a result of the use of antiperspirants.

Depending on the form of release, deodorants differently cope with the task.

• Antiperspirant aerosol (spray) protects the surface layer of the skin, practically without penetrating into it. Therefore, this form is best for those who sweat a little. It is worth choosing it for those who care about clothes, since sprays that do not contain talcum powder do not leave marks on the skin and underwear. The process of spraying the aerosol may not be suitable for allergy sufferers and asthmatics, but an antiperspirant without perfume will save the situation. The task of the drug is to fight bacteria without stopping the sweat ducts. It is deodorants of this form that are consumed quite quickly.
• Antiperspirant Cream - An innovative form for people with severe sweating. The line “Maximum Protection” has already been appreciated by customers who note that, despite the wet form, the deodorant dries quickly. But if you apply it in the morning, then most likely it will leave marks on clothing. The cream has a pleasant texture and aroma. Two clicks are enough for armpits. But it is washed off from the skin very badly.
• Hard stick It is considered the most effective because it penetrates the skin and blocks pores, creating a film. It is from the deodorant of this form that things most often suffer. But it is much better suited to people who do not tolerate harsh odors, as the fragrance is very weak.
• Ball Deodorant it fights much better with an unpleasant odor, as it envelops the skin with a film. At the same time, like a solid stick, dispensing without spraying, and, therefore, is more suitable for people with problem lungs. The basis is a gel-like emulsion - transparent, does not leave marks on clothes (according to a large number of users).It was the inverted packaging of this Rexona form that made a lot of noise in its time: the cap of the bottle reliably snaps into place, rather than twists; the emulsion envelops the ball to the last drop, which allows the use of deodorant for a long time.
• Gel deodorant for legs is available in a tube (there is also a spray for legs). It not only disinfects the legs, but also has a cooling effect.
• Napkins - Another opportunity to eliminate an unpleasant odor in an emergency. Impregnated with an antibacterial agent with fragrance, they briefly help to solve the problem of smell, freshen up on the road. They are not a complete means of protection against sweat, but will give a feeling of cleanliness and freshness.

Rexona produces sweat protection products not only for women, but also for men and adolescents. This is understandable: all people on the earth are sweating, and among teenagers and men this unpleasant smell is much harsher. It is to ensure that we do not feel discomfort, Rexona took care of us, releasing various deodorants.

The effectiveness of the use of hygiene and cosmetics depends on the correct choice of product. For intense loads, it is better to choose deodorants made using Motionsense technology (the more you move, the more active the tool). But this is not the only recommendation for use.

• Sweat itself is odorless. If you felt the amber from your own body, it means that you have not used the shower for a long time. Clogging this smell with any kind of deodorant is not only pointless, but also harmful. Any such product is applied only to clean, dry skin.
• Carefully read the instructions - some antiperspirants are best applied at night, and not in the morning.
• Sprays before use must be shaken for 2-3 seconds. Spraying is carried out from a distance of 15–20 cm. In this case, the skin will not be too wet.
• Spray can be used by several family members, as this is a contactless product. The remaining forms are created for individual use.
• Do not apply immediately after depilation and shaving. In this case, skin irritation is almost guaranteed. You can use the deodorant after several hours of rest of the skin.
• Traces of clothing occur when the deodorant is not allowed to dry.Depending on the form of the product, this takes from 1 to 10 minutes.
• Foot antiperspirants should only be used for this part of the body.
• In order for the deodorant to be truly an antiperspirant (a means of fighting bacteria), aluminum or zinc salts must be present in the composition.
• For sensitive skin, look for moisturizers and emollients: cyclomethicone or glycerin.
• The “fresh” the product, that is, the longer the shelf life, the more preservatives it contains. Therefore, it is so important to pay attention to the date of manufacture and expiration date.
• The more preservatives, the higher the likelihood of skin irritation. Most of this component is in sprays, since this is the most sealed package.
• Failure to comply with the storage conditions may result in injury to the skin. The product should not be exposed to direct sunlight, near sources of open fire, in rooms with a high temperature.

Rexona has long and firmly occupied its segment in the Russian market, but product reviews are different. Almost a third of buyers say that before this brand was better. Despite the pleasant aromas that most buyers like (both men, women, and teenagers), the products do not cope with the unpleasant smell of the declared time. This is especially true for sprays: they last literally for several hours, and the skin after them is constantly wet.
