Gillette Cool Wave Clear Gel Deodorant

Who does not want to smell good? When the warmer weather approaches us, we all are aware of the inevitable unpleasant experiences that we share at our office, bus rides, at trains, and sometimes even at our bedroom too just because of the body odor that is eliminated from someone next to us. The odor is of nothing but the action of bacteria and other microbes along with dusts and all other impurities over our skin surfaces because of the sweat we produce facilitates to adhere those substances to our body. That is when we think of getting rid of these embarrassing smells from our body. Deodorants are the product that helps us remain free of the unpleasant smells coming out of the body. Gillette is one of my favorite brands of deodorant as it has a pleasing touch over our body apart from the deodorizing actions. I love deodorants that soothe our body without disturbing others. To be clearer, the deodorant should not have some aggressive odor to distract others attention as most of the people are irritated by strong smells, even though it may be of some spray mist, deodorant, or something similar.


If you observe the market trends in the recent days, you would see that there are a variety of products of similar nature which emerges in the market and continue to impress the consumers. This is because of the continuous change of consumer preferences. Same is the case with deodorants, there is a varied range of this product and all are almost equally taking the market share. There is a competition among the manufacturers to fulfill the consumer demands by way of their research team and Gillette is not lagging behind. For deodorants, it was the roll-ons that started to acquire the market until the stick deodorants replaced them. But at present times, it is the gel deodorants that are taking most of the market share and gaining immense popularity among their consumers.

The Gillette Cool Wave Clear Gel Deodorant:
Manufacturer: PROCTOR & GAMBLE.

The product is an advanced clear gel formula which dries quickly to form invisible barrier of protection without leaving any white, flaky residues over the skin surface. It has a powerful wetness and odor protection which goes cleaner and smoother leaving behind a purely masculine and fresh scent in and around you.

PACKAGING:
Just like most of the Gillette gel deodorants, the Gillette Cool Wave Clear Gel Deodorant too comes in a clear, see-through, hard plastic container with a silver colored base and lid, which is wider with little depth making it portable to carry along. The bottle has a blue label at its face with the name branded on it and the back is clear with the information’s about the product and necessary warnings. The packaging can simply be termed attractive and one can see the air bubbles amongst the gel within the container from outside itself.

COMPOSITIONS:
As stated at the back of the plastic container, the Gillette Cool Wave Clear Gel Deodorant consists of the following ingredients: water, alcohol denat, cyclopentasiloxane, propylene glycol, dimethicone, trisiloxane, dimethicone, calcium chloride and fragrance. But the most active ingredient that is included in the deodorant is the Aluminium Zirconium Octachlorohydrex GLY. This is a complex of Aluminium Zirconium Chlorohydrex 8 with glycine, which on application to the skin reduces the production of perspiration at the site of application and induces a tightening or tingling sensation of the skin and also reduces or eliminates unpleasant odor.

THE USE:
It may sound silly to speak about how to use a gel deodorant, but the fact is that if you are using the product for the first time, you may end up with dissatisfaction if you had squeezed out more than required amount of the gel for application. So, take care to use very small amount per application so that you don’t wet out your armpits and feel sticky. Just squeeze a little to appear a small drop over the dispenser and apply on your armpits. That will be absorbed in to your skin surface instantly protecting you for a long. If you could not master it on your first application, you would be expertise in using just enough of it with two to three applications, provided you are careful at the time of application.

MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCES:
Positives:
To be frank, I like using this product from Gillette for a number of reasons of which I am going to briefly describe a few:
1. It soothes my skin: The first and foremost reason for my liking of the product is that it does not produce irritation or rashes over my skin. The main problem with selecting a deodorant is its compatibility to the skin and I am fortunate that the Gillette Cool Wave is compatible to my skin type. Moreover, it does not stick my armpit hairs together as this is the condition I had encountered previously with some of the deodorants.

2. It has a manly scent: The Cool Wave from Gillette has a fresh and manly fragrance which is not too strong but yet impressive to be complemented by others. The fragrance is refreshing and there are no chances that it would overpower or offend others.

3. Lasts Longer: The deodorant acts for the day long with the same intensity. I need not worry about a foul smell eliminated out of my body once I am sure that I did not forgot to put on my Cool Wave. At least I confirm this when none of my friends draws himself away from me when I get closer to them for a chit-chat. But if you had a heavy workout, I would suggest you to apply it again after a shower for the second time.

4. It’s CHEAP: The deodorant is affordable and I would prefer to term it cheap. Yet it is worth using for the qualities it had in it. So I am using it on a regular basis after first time I started using it almost a year back.

5. Monitoring the Content: As the product comes in a clear package, it is easier to monitor its contents and I can replace it at time. Moreover, the tube is portable enough to carry along even in my jeans pockets and the container is tough enough to be broken in transit.

7. Clothes are safe: As the product is absorbed quickly to your skin, there won’t be any stickiness or usage marks like the powder based deodorant sticks and so it will protect your clothes.

8. Satisfaction: Satisfaction is the main thing which leads us to stick to a particular company or product. I have been using products from Gillette for my shaving kit, deodorants just because, they never let you down. They are constantly improving their quality to fulfill their consumer satisfactions rather providing them with delight. And most importantly, Gillette is constantly concentrating on catering to products especially for MEN. Moreover, it is readily available everywhere around you, either online or in your nearby groceries and so you can purchase it without any difficulty.

OVERVIEW:

A good deodorant is always the one which is absorbed instantly to the site of application, without leaving any residues over the surface and continues to protect you for the day long. Gillette Cool Wave is one such, if you want to trust using Gel Deodorants. The fragrance it has is relaxing, refreshing, and truly manly and it does not overpower other. If you want to be fresh all the day long, you can give Gillette Cool Wave Clear Gel Deodorant a try, you won’t be disappointed.
