Secret Deodorant Giftpack Review & Giveaway (5 winners!)

Why is it I sweat more than ever since I have had kids? Why does being pregnant change your body so much that even after the pregnancy is way over (my baby is almost 2) I still feel like I sweat more than normal? How do I keep from being stinky? I rely on Secret Deodorant. I have been a long time user of Secret's products.  It is the deodorant I choose over all others. They have great scents, give great protection and leave me feeling fresh and confident!

Recently Secret hooked me, my friends and family with some samples of their deodorants to try out! We got to try the Clinical Strength Deodorant and the Flawless Deodorant!  Both of these products left me feeling reassured that my pits weren't stinky and that I was going to have long lasting coverage!

When I was pregnant with my last baby, I asked the dr. for a clinical strength deodorant. She actually recommended an otc deodorant, but I wanted a prescription. I didn't like it though, and so actually I was excited to see how an otc product would work.  I really liked the Secret Clinical Strength deodorant. This baby can outlast any activity and keep you protected all day long! The scent is light and fresh! I loved this deodorant and next time, I think I will listen to the dr. when she says I don't need a prescription deodorant!

The Flawless Deodorant was my favorite of the two. It is triggered by body heat, so when you are getting hot and sweaty, that is when it is working the hardest for you!  This deodorant really left me feeling clean and fresh, with no worries of getting sweat stains on my shirt, or stinking after playing hard with the kids! The scent is light and feminine, so it isn't a strong deodorant type smell that makes it seem like you caked the stuff on!

Certain Dri Anti-Perspirant Review and Giveaway!



Summer time is a great time of year, but being hot and sweaty isn't so great.  I swear since being pregnant I sweat more than usual! Certain Dri gives me the confidence of knowing that I am covered and won't be getting those icky sweat stains!!
I love that Certain Dri is now offered in a solid! I'm not really sure why, but it always seems better to me than the roll on stuff.  I feel like I get better protection from a solid.  

Some facts about the new solid:


  • Created specifically to complete the line of Certain Dri antiperspirant products for those who want the same 72-hour protection from excessive underarm perspiration in a solid application.
  • The product is specially-formulated to provide everyday, all-day dryness for those who suffer from excessive underarm perspiration.
  • Certain Dri® Solid Anti-Perspirant contains 25% aluminum sesquichlorohydrate (Anhydrous). It is the only over-the-counter antiperspirant with this ingredient, which is more effective than the aluminum zirconium formula found in over-the-counter solid antiperspirants that are labeled “clinical strength.” 




 While other over-the-counter antiperspirants claim to be “clinical strength” and “waterproof” the Certain Dri formulations – 12% aluminum chloride and 25% aluminum sesquichlorohydrate -  are the strongest available, providing 72-hours of protection with each application. Retail price is $5.50-$6, almost 40% less than the other clinical strength antiperspirant products.

On 7/14/09, Certain Dri was on the national TV show, Good Morning America in a segment on Sweat. http://abcnews.go.com/video/playerIndex?id=8077794   


For ongoing product and giveaway info, look for Certain Dri on Facebook.

Now through July 31, 2010,  visit www.certaindri.com/sweeps to enter the  “Certain Dri Shopping Spree” sweepstakes for a chance to win one of three prizes, including a $1,000 shopping spree, a $500 shopping spree or a $250 shopping spree!

Degree Nature Effects

Degree WomenWhat is the one thing you usually forget in the morning? Mascara? Keys? How about your deoderant? Well for me it's that last one.  I have to put it somewhere where I am sure to see it, or it may slip my mind.  I even keep one in my bag to be sure I have some if I forget on the way out!  I love to find ones that smell a little girly without being too overwhelming, and I prefer something that doesn't get on my clothes! I recently got to try Degree Nature Effects Honeysuckle and Tea Tree Oil deoderant.  I was a huge fan the moment I put it on!!







Honeysuckle and tea tree oil together have a refreshing and natural fragrance that works great anytime, anywhere.   The new scents are inspired by nature, using fragrances known for fighting bad smells.  The deoderant provides 24 hour wetness and odor protection.  They also offer a body mist of the same scent, to pair with the deoderant.  Together they heighten the experience for your senses!  These new deoderants are available now in retail stores!

Tea tree oil is known for its natural deodorizing properties. Which is great for me because I swear I have some smelly underarms! During my last pregnancy, I swore I was so sweaty and stinky that I had my O.B. Dr. write me a prescription for some super strong deoderant. She told me she didn't think I was sweating so bad that I smelled, but understood my concerns, as you do sweat more than usual when you are pregnant. So I was glad to try this deoderant because it not only smells good, but it will keep me smelling good throughout my day!

You can win your own Honeysuckle & Tea Tree Oil deoderant! Here is how to win!
