Rexona deodorants: description, series and tips for use

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

The purpose of any antiperspirant is to protect against unpleasant odors and wet stains on clothing. Over the years, the company has developed a large number of remedies to achieve this effect. Wherein Rexona marketers position their products as innovative, consisting of quality components... This should ensure reliable protection against unpleasant odors and perspiration.

The second feature of the brand is the variety of shapes. The manufacturer offers not only different types of active substances (sprays, capsules, gels, sticks, creams), but also different forms of packaging (aerosol cans, wipes, pencils, roll-on deodorants).

The company's specialists are constantly improving their design: first used inverted can, spray in the form of a female figure, new Ferrari men's deodorant, very similar to the design of a real car.

The wide assortment is another feature. The manufacturer did not stop only at products for women - there are men's lines, as well as products for teenagers (generation Z).

Rexona has created hygiene products for people with an active lifestyle, who go in for sports and undergo constant physical activity. In such cases, it is important not only to prevent unpleasant odors, but also traces of sweat on clothes. This is why entire product lines 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 it cannot be called expensive either.

For a dry underarm effect and no unpleasant odor Rexona has a complex chemical composition of up to 30 components... One way or another, various components are responsible for preventing the reproduction of fetid bacteria, drying the skin, narrowing pores, slowing down oxidative processes, and preserving the effect. In some cases, fragrances are used, but there are also odorless options.

Roll-on deodorants include castor oil in a water-soluble form that softens skin and controls moisture. Hard sticks become antiseptic, homogeneous thanks to octadecanol. If tocopherol is found in the composition, it means that the manufacturer took care of softening the skin, since it is vitamin E.

When buying a deodorant, we pay attention to the composition and often start to panic when we see the words "aluminum" or "zinc" on the label. The reason is in the widespread belief that these components affect health, up to the most dire results. But experts say that the maximum that such a remedy can do harm is to clog the pores. The result is inflammation of the sweat glands. To prevent this from happening, you need to regularly and thoroughly wash off the film that forms as a result of the use of antiperspirants.

Depending on the form of release, deodorants cope with the task in different ways.

• Antiperspirant aerosol (spray) protects the surface layer of the skin, practically without penetrating it. Therefore, this form is best suited for those who sweat a little. It is worth choosing it for those who care about clothes, as talc-free sprays do not leave marks on the skin and linen. The aerosol spraying process may not work for allergy sufferers and asthmatics, but a fragrance-free antiperspirant will save the day. The task of the tool is to fight bacteria without stopping sweat ducts. It is the deodorants of this form that are consumed quite quickly.
• Antiperspirant cream - an innovative shape for people with heavy sweating. The "Maximum Protection" line 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 clothes. The cream has a pleasant texture and aroma. For underarms, two clicks are enough. But this remedy is washed off the skin very badly.
• Solid stick It is considered the most effective as it penetrates the skin and blocks pores, creating a film. It is from this form of deodorant that things most often suffer. But it is much better suited for people who cannot stand strong odors, since the fragrance is very weak.
• Roll-On Deodorant much better fights against unpleasant odor, as it envelops the skin with a film. At the same time, like a hard stick, it does without spraying, which means it is more suitable for people with problem lungs. The base 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 form of Rexona that made a lot of noise in its time: the bottle cap snaps securely, and does not twist; the emulsion envelops the ball to the last drop, which allows the deodorant to be used for a long time.
• Deodorant gel for legs it is produced in a tube (there is also a spray for legs). It not only disinfects the feet, but also has a cooling effect.
• Napkins - another opportunity to eliminate the unpleasant odor in an emergency. Impregnated with an antibacterial agent with a fragrance, they will briefly help to solve the problem of odor, freshen up on the road. They are not a complete sweat repellent, but they will give you a clean and fresh feeling.

Rexona produces sweat protection products not only for women, but also for men and teenagers. This is understandable: all people on earth sweat, and in adolescents and men this unpleasant smell is much sharper. Precisely so that we do not feel discomfort, Rexona took care of us, releasing various deodorants.

• "Freshness of Bamboo and Aloe Vera". The series is represented by the following antiperspirants: aerosol, roll, napkins, pencil. All products take care of sensitive skin, as well as those who suffer from allergies. Deodorants of all forms dry quickly without leaving white spots. But for strong physical exertion, the remedy is rather weak.
• "Maximum protection" represented by two creams: "Antibacterial effect" and "Dryness and comfort". 45 ml of dry cream is placed in a rather large plastic bottle, which, in turn, is packed in a box and has additional instructions on the insert. The peculiarity in the recommendation for use is to apply not in the morning, but at night, so that the cream is absorbed. The series has a very pleasant floral-fruity aroma.
• "Dry powder" - pink series, represented by spray, roll and pencil. It used the innovative Motionsense technology, which maximally protects against increased perspiration and odor. Due to the powder, the product dries quickly, does not stick, due to the use of sunflower oil, the skin does not dry out. Suitable for intense exercise. The manufacturer guarantees a long-term effect - 48 hours (although not everyone dares to check this in hot weather). The series has a fairly independent scent that does not require additional use of eau de toilette or perfume.
• Series "Odorless" also represented by three forms made using Motionsense technology. It is the first antiperspirant for sensitive skin to be odorless. With such deodorants, you can safely use your favorite perfume or eau de toilette - they will not "conflict". The promised protection is 48 hours.
• Rexona “Invisible on Black and White Clothes” becomes this way due to the absence of starch and molasses in the composition. There is both an aerosol and a stick, a roll. A light scent of freshness will allow you to use your perfume. The main advantage of the series is the absence of marks on clothes.
• "Thermal protection" - a tool designed for temperature extremes, because in winter we sweat just as much. And transitions from a cold street to a warm room provoke an increase in body temperature and active work of sweat glands. Protective capsules Motionsense will save you from the embarrassment associated with the appearance of odor and sweat.
• "Bright bouquet" represented by roll-on deodorant, spray and wipes. The manufacturer guarantees exclusive floral fragrances and protection for 24 hours from napkins and 48 hours from other products. The new line is gaining momentum.
• Invisible line "Transparent crystal" with Motionsense technology designed to protect clothing from stains and protect the body from sweat and odor. The pleasant aroma of grapefruit, watermelon and melon, lily of the valley, jasmine and freesia, fresh grass provides a fresh smell.
• "Freshness of the soul" - a series that is available in both the male and female lines. Perhaps this is the reason that womens are distinguished by richer aromas. As customers say - for strong women.

"Freshness of the soul." There are no floral or fruity aromas here - only the scent of freshness, charging with vigor and energy for the whole day thanks to Motionsense capsules. The entire line is designed to fight odors for 48 hours.

• Rexona men champions - a line consisting of aerosol, antiperspirant roll-on and hard pencil. All products dry quickly and leave no residue, which is important for true champions who like to wear T-shirts. The line has aromas of citrus and lavender.
• Cobalt line presented in three classic forms with the smell of herbs and cedar. That is why it is not recommended to use other perfumes. Principle of action: the more you move, the more protected. The plus is the absence of marks on clothes. In the red is a strong fragrance.
• "Invisible transparent ice" refers to a series of invisible, and therefore not leaving marks on clothes. The aroma of citrus, woody notes and lavender accompany the user almost all day long. It was about this series that the men left the most positive reviews.
• Rexona Men "Antibacterial freshness" Is 10x more Motionsense sweat protection and skin care. The aromas of mint, alpine herbs and mountain lavender will unobtrusively accompany you all day.

There are other series in both the male and female lines. But Rexona has gone further - it has offered the first antiperspirant for generation Z. Six cool products for young, active and energetic will help to cope with unpleasant odors, take care of the skin and give a feeling of comfort. All products are alcohol and paraben free.

• The girls are offered two episodes. Each contains an aerosol and roll-on deodorant. I must say that even the older generation liked the original pink design "Tender and Juicy". And pink flamingos on a pale green background "Bright and Floral" simply dispose to purchase a product. Both series contain vitamin E, which moisturizes the skin. The manufacturer guarantees freshness for 48 hours. Of course, floral scents are made for young people, but violet, jasmine, herbal scent are quite versatile. For many, the fragrance "Tender and Juicy" reminds of Cacharel Amor Amor.
• Guys will love Fresh & Powerful Antiperspirant in the form of a spray and a roll. Real scents for real men: citrus, invigorating ginger, lavender and cardamom, sandalwood and cedar. Deodorants do a good job of antibacterial effect, do not leave marks on things, and protect youthful skin.

The effectiveness of the use of hygiene and cosmetics products depends on the correct choice of the product. For intense exertion, it is better to choose deodorants made using Motionsense technology (the more you move, the more actively the product works). 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. To clog this smell with any kind of deodorant is not only pointless, but also harmful. Any such product is applied only to clean, dry skin.
• Read the instructions carefully - some antiperspirants are best applied at night rather than in the morning.
• Before use, sprays 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.
• The spray can be used by several family members, as it is a non-contact product. The rest of the forms are created for individual use.
• Do not apply the product immediately after waxing and shaving. In this case, skin irritation is almost guaranteed. You can use the deodorant after a few hours of resting the skin.
• Marks on clothing occur when the deodorant is not allowed to dry.Depending on the form of the product, this takes from 1 to 10 minutes.
• Antiperspirants for feet should only be used on that part of the body.
• For a 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 such as cyclomethicone or glycerin.
• The "fresher" 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 more likely it is to get skin irritated. Most of this component is in sprays, since this is the most sealed package.
• Failure to comply with storage conditions may result in skin injury. The product should not be exposed to direct sunlight, near sources of open fire, or in rooms with high temperatures.

Rexona has long and firmly occupied its segment in the Russian market, however, product reviews are different. Almost a third of buyers say that this brand used to be of better quality. Despite the pleasant aromas that most buyers like (both men, women, and teenagers), the products do not cope with the unpleasant smell for the stated time. This is especially true for sprays: they are enough for just a few hours, and the skin after them is constantly wet.
