Nivea Pure & Natural Action Deodorant 24hrs

Continuing on yesterday’s post about deodorant, I must say that Nivea is really being difficult. When I went shopping for deodorants, driven by the humid hot inhumane weather, all the other brands of deodorant were on sale, all except Nivea. (¬_¬)

Both Rexona and Dove were having buy two for about $10 (can’t remember the exact price. σ^_^; ) and Nivea’s cost $9+ per can. Seriously?!

I was so tempted to buy the other brands but in the end, convinced myself not to. I’d already tried Dove cucumber and there’s still half a can left in my closet. It’s not much help in this weather.

As for Rexona, I bought a white coloured can of deodorant before (again, I can’t remember the exact flavour) and ended up not liking it, so I was hesitant to buy 2 in one go.

In the end, I bought one can of Nivea Pure & Natural Action deodorant. Yes, I already have a lot of deodorants at home so I didn’t really need to buy it. Roll ons, stick, spray cans in various flavours and I only have two arms.

At that time, I’d bought the Nivea Silver Protect Polar Blue for about a month and liked it. However, it’s not exactly something I would put on if I were wearing a skirt or dress. I was hoping to find something that could combat the stickiness yet not smell manly.

I’ve to say, I like it. It doesn’t work as well as the Nivea Silver Protect Polar Blue, so I wouldn’t use it on an extremely warm day, but it’s adequate for normal day to day use.

Nivea Silver Protect Polar Blue 48hrs

It has been excruciatingly hot recently. While there were occasional showers, the rain could do little to make a dent on the temperature. And I’ve realised that there is something that I need now, more than ever.

Actually, everybody needs deodorants. It should be a necessity. Sadly though, hordes of sweaty smelly people on Bus 302 disagrees with me, along with those on the MRT & other public transport. (T ^ T)

I digress. As I was saying, I needed a more powerful deodorant and set my sights on the Nivea Silver Protect Polar Blue. It’s for men and smells very nice. I’ve always loved this scent, especially on a guy but hey, it doesn’t smell bad on me either. (⌒▽⌒) And most importantly, it helps me to stay less sticky in the baking sun.

I love it so much, I bought two tiny cans so that I can bring one along in my bag.

Obviously, it appealed to me mainly because of its functionality, though the scent is important too.

Before I forget, it cost $7.20 per can, much cheaper than other Nivea spray type deodorants for females. Cost $2 for the small can. ^o^
