Surviving the Summer: Nivea Whitening Sensitive Deodorant Review

Hey guys! Remember me? Lol! No? Nevermind. I'm just going to update this blog as much as I possibly can. 
Today I have a review for you, except it isn't my review, it is actually by my sister Saloni, she volunteered to be a guinea pig for this Nivea deo because I'm allergic to Nivea deos in general. 

Okay, that doesn't mean that they're bad, you can be allergic to anything, be it chemical or natural and sadly enough I have very messed up skin that insists on being allergic to most things, hence, Saloni has tried out the new Nivea Whitening Sensitive deodorant, that promises fairness for sensitive underarms.
Okay, let's go!



Price:
Rs. 199 MRP

Packaging:
The packaging is typical of Nivea deodorants, a white metal bottle with a nice soothing colour scheme of light blue and aqua. The nozzle is also one that you see on most deo bottles these day. Simple and effective.



What it promises:

Fragrance:
The deo has a lovely fragrance, it is floral and very old school, like an old Yardley perfume or talc. 
The fragrance is pretty long lasting (unless you’re under really hot and humid conditions like a 3 hour traffic jam in Andheri in May). And it does keep the stink away. ^_^ 
As a person who spends their entire day in an air-conditioned office except the commuting time, I have to spend the entire day in close quarters with co-workers , in the train, everyone is in closed quarters.  >.>
And as everyone knows- ACs can amplify any smell. 
So this stuff is pretty good for most scenarios.

Sensitive Skin Friendly:
You know that feeling when you absentmindedly spray deodorant on your underarms after shaving or waxing and you swear that generations from now, they can still hear your pained screams? Well that definitely DOES NOT happen with this deo! It really is caring towards sensitive skin with no burning or tingling, I guess it is because of its 0% alcohol content!
And yes, it is actually better than the normal variety of Nivea Whitening deos.
HUZZAH! >w<




Fairness Factor:
Okay, I don't know whether it is psychological or for real but I do feel like my underarms have become fairer. Not significantly but more like they're going back to their normal colour and not being all dark and gross looking like they usually are.
Also when you apply the Nivea deo, wait for a couple of minutes for it to dry a bit and then wear your clothes, this ensures the most effectiveness. Don't know why but it works!

Overall this is a great deo, it comes at an affordable price and does what is is supposed to. Plus no burning is just a BIG bonus, especially in this insane heat.
Just remember to carry body mist with you anyway for long days because you gonna need that, it's the middle of MAY people! Deo or no deo! Good luck, it IS an Indian summer!

Well, will you be trying Nivea's Whitening Deodorant for Sensitive Skin?

Thanks for reading!
