Secret Outlast Clear Gel Antipersperant/Deodorant Review

Disclaimer: The smaller size of the product  mentioned in this review was given to me complimentary by Influenster.

Not going to lie, I was excited when I saw this in my VoxBox. I will admit that I needed a new deodorant. I really wanted to purchase the Secret Stress Response that I reviewed from the last VoxBox (http://lipstickxzombie.blogspot.com/2013/03/secret-clinical-strength-stress.html) but it is expensive. So I have been looking for a good alternative...and here it is!



Secret Outlast Clear Gel as the name entails is a clear gel deodorant. It goes on and stays clear, so there are zero white marks. It is incredibly great that a deodorant like this exists because I've been getting tired of white marks on my clothing.



As I did last time, I used this deodorant at many different times to give it a fair test. I used is before bed, in the morning, on comfortable temperature days and very hot days. Every time, my underarms remained dry. The packing claims that it has 48 hour wetness and odor protection. I don't feel that it lasts for 48 hours, but it definitely lasts a long amount of time.

This deodorant smells great. The scent doesn't last as long as I would like, but it protects from odor very well.  Compared to Secret Stress Response this is a steal. I actually bought this after trying and I'm so glad I did, at $4.59 this is a steal!

Here is the deodorant Influenster gave me and the one that I bought. The store I purchased this at didn't have the completely clean scent so I had to settle for protecting powder.

Secret Clinical Strength Stress Response Review

 Disclaimer: Everything in this post was given to me complimentary by Influenster.




I didn't know what to think when a deodorant was included in my SweetHeart VoxBox. I have always been a Dove girl and I had never even thought of trying any other deodorant.

Secret claims that their  Clinical Strength Stress Response deodorant contains a triple action technology that provides prescription strength against wetness, odor fighting capsules to absorb odor and skin smoothing conditioners. It also boasts that it is a sponsor of Oprah's Lifeclass.

I was pretty excited to try this deodorant. Anyone that knows me personally probably knows by now that I stress a lot and I stress over a lot of things. So this  would be the perfect deodorant for me. Now does it actually work?




I tried this deodorant in a few different ways. First I put it on as I normally would at the beginning of the day. At the end of that day there was absolutely zero wetness.

The next way I tried it was as directed at bedtime. Any time I used this before bed, my underarms were completely dry when that normally isn't the case (I know, too much information. Sorry!).

Lastly, I tried this deodorant the day I got my wisdom teeth removed, which was an extremely stressful day for me. This deodorant did live up to its name. It protected me from normal and stress sweat, keeping my underarms completely dry.





Overall, this is a great deodorant. It has worked well every time and every way that I have tried it. I got the Serene Citrus scent, which smelled great and lasted all day.



 At first I didn't like how this was more of a wet/cream deodorant instead of a solid one, but I am used to it now and I don't mind it. I would totally buy this again.

Influenster SweetHeart VoxBox

                                                             
                       Everything in this post was given to me complimentary from Influenster.

As you may know from previous posts, I do a lot with Influenster.com. I have gotten a VoxBox from them before and had so much fun participating in the program and reviewing all of the products. I was even more excited when I was selected to receive this VoxBox, the SweetHeart VoxBox. I was very surprised when I opened my box to see all of this:


In the box was a travel size of Not Your Mother's Beach Babe spray, Olay Fresh Effects Va Va Vivid cleansing system, Skinnygirl Daily Skinnygirl On-the-Go Bar, and Secret Clinical Strength Stress Response deodorant.

The outside of the box also had a pink heart glued to it, which I thought was really cute.


I will be posting individual review posts for everything I received (yes, even the Skinnygirl bar, even though this is a beauty blog). These review posts might not be up for a week or two, next week I will be getting all of my wisdom teeth out at once and I will need some time to recover from that. I'm hoping to have at least some of the reviews posted this weekend or even the end of next week. Don't worry about not seeing posts from me next week, I already have some queued to post! Keep your eyes out for reviews of all of these products, which will be coming soon to this blog. I can't wait to share what I think!
