Review | Sure Maximum Protection Anti-Perspirant

Sure Maximum Protection Anti-Perspirant* | £5.10 each

Hi everyone, I hope you're all doing well! Now reviewing a deodorant or anti-perspirant may seem a little odd, but it's a product that pretty much everyone uses and for some people finding the right one is so important. Keeping that fresh feeling all day can be quite hard when using a standard deodorant, so a few months ago I started to use maximum protection anti-perspirants instead. I was recently asked to try out a couple of the Sure Maxiumum Protection Anti-Perspirants and see how fresh they kept me during my busy days at college and work!

The two anti-perspirants I was sent to try are in "Sensitive" and Sure's new scent "Everyday Fresh". The Everyday Fresh version has the "busy people" in mind and aims to keep those who are constantly working and on the go stay fresh. The Sensitive version has those with delicate underarms in mind yet still provides strong protection from sweating. Both versions have a lovely fresh scent that lingers on the skin for quite a long time leaving you smelling great! Each anti-perspirant comes in a white wind up tube with a secure lid. I find that I only need around 2 clicks of product for each underarm and then I'm good to go! I also find that the product itself is creamy and moisturising on my underarms and doesn't leave them feeling dry or tight which you can get with some strong anti-perspirants.

Sure Maximum Protection Anti-Perspirants work by you applying it at night so that whilst you sleep, it can work its magic and actually help prevent you from sweating the next day. In the morning, there is no need to reapply any deodorant (even after showering) as the Sure anti-perspirants are strong enough to leave you feeling fresh all day! When I first tried these maximum protection anti-perspirants, I felt so nervous about skipping wearing deodorant in the morning and was constantly paranoid that I wouldn't stay fresh - but you do! For the majority of the day your underarms are left feeling fresh and only towards the end of the day would I feel the need to reapply some normal spray deodorant. You can also apply a small amount of the Sure anti-perspirant in the morning if you need that added protection, and I have to say doing this leaves my underarms dry all day!

Overall I'm a big fan of these maximum protection anti-perspirants and I don't think I could ever go back to just using a normal deodorant - they just don't give as much protection! I think these anti-perspirants would be great for people who are conscious of perspiration and want to help combat it. I would highly recommend anyone trying these Sure Maximum Protection Anti-Perspirants if they want that fresh feeling all day long!

Empties | Products I Have Used Up #1

I've been enjoying reading this new type of blog post and YouTube video as it gives you a real review of the products the person has used. Because the whole product has been used up, the opinion will be more detailed and genuine, not just 'oh yes, this is a nice product'. In this post I have 8 empties to give my honest opinion on.

Back row:
♥ Palmolive Soft & Gentle Extra Fresh Anti-Perspirant Deodorant in Lotus & Watermelon - I really like the smell of this deodorant and definitely leaves you smelling fresh. The scent's staying power is just like a body spray so it stays on your skin for a long time. My one issue is that this isn't a very strong deodorant (i.e. you may have to reapply during the day) and if you do need a strong deodorant I wouldn't recommend this. However this works well for me and I'm already using my backup of this product!

♥ Sure Long Lasting Protection Nutritive Anti-Perspirant Deodorant - this was the deodorant I used before my Palmolive one and I didn't fully run out of it until recently. To be honest I just used it up so I could throw it out. I'm not keen on the smell as it smells too much like an anti-perspirant for me and I prefer a nice smelling deodorant. However this product does work and keeps you dry because it's an active 48 hour deodorant. I'm not going to repurchase this as I like the Palmolive one too much!

♥ Superdrug Dry Shampoo in Chocolate Brownie - I bought this when Superdrug's dry shampoos were 3 for £1.99, a bargain not to have been missed! I bought 2 Chocolate Brownie versions and 1 Away With The Fairies, which is an orange scented dry shampoo. I used up the orange scented one months ago because it smelt so nice. I find that the Chocolate Brownie one is far too sweet smelling and once I've used up my second one of this I am going to purchase the Away With the Fairies one instead. Also I felt that this product didn't do much for my hair. I don't have greasy hair so maybe I'm not a great person for dry shampoo but it didn't feel like it freshened my hair much. It only seemed to scent it which is why I prefer the orange version. One good thing about this product is that it's for brunettes so comes out as a brown spray, this means it leaves no white residue in your hair.

♥ Sensodyne Gentle Whitening Toothpaste - I bought this toothpaste for when my braces came off in May because I knew my teeth would be stained. To my surprise they weren't too bad but I wanted to make my teeth whiter to boost my self confidence. Because I have really sensitive teeth as well, Sensodyne Gentle Whitening is a great product as it deals with two problems in one product. The sensitivity of my teeth has definitely been reduced since using this product and I don't think my teeth are as stained/ yellow. So overall this is a great toothpaste and I'm already using my backup!

Middle row:
♥ Buff Your Stuff Body Scrub - this product was featured in my June Favourite's post where I talked about how good this exfoliator was. I really like this product, even though it's quite rough on your skin, it does leave your skin feeling soft afterwards. This is also a great product to use before tanning as it scrubs away all the dry skin. I will definitely be repurchasing this product in the future!

♥ Sally Hansen Moisturising Nail Polish Remover with Vitamin E and Aloe Vera - I like this nail polish remover as it's for dry, brittle nails it gives more nutrients to help them be healthier. Plus if I use nail polish remover a lot on my nails they get extremely weak so I use ones like this with vitamins/ nutrients to reduce this affect. I've repurchased this a few times so I think it is a good, cheap nail polish remover.

♥ Treacle Moon The Raspberry Kiss Bath and Shower Gel - I love the raspberry smell of this shower gel, it's quite sweet and fruity. It also lathers up really nicely when you use a shower puff. The label also says this is great poured into a bath for a 10 minute soak and I agree! I'm not a girl who can lay in the bath for hours, probably 20 minutes max, so a product like this that gives me a quick bubble bath is great. The bubbles even maintain the lovely raspberry scent. I already have a backup of this product and I am still loving it!

Front row:
♥ Lolita Lempicka Si Lolita Eau da Parfum 30ml: this perfume was featured in my Favourite Perfumes post because this is my everyday perfume. I love the spicy scent to this and is great for everyday wear. This has been my go-to scent since Christmas and I've really been enjoying it. I'm already on to my next bottle and still loving it! Definitely a great product.

Hope you found this useful!

Amie ♥
