| DeRango's Full Review: Right Guard Sport Power Caps Clear Gel Antiperspir... |
Right Guard Sport anti-perspirant deodorant gel is a great alternative to standard stick deodorant, much easier to apply, and less of a mess. The gel glides on smoothly and leaves me with a mildly fresh scent that lasts all day. Right Guard is the only deodorant gel I use for my daily routine, and it will continue to be my deodorant of choice.

A few comments on warnings about the rash, before using Right Guard I used a stick deodorant, and it caused me irritation and a mild rash. I always thought it was the way I was applying it to my underarm, as I was a bit rough, trying to get more of the deodorant onto my skin. After several months of use, I found that the stick deodorant was giving me the rash, and once I switched to the Right Guard gel the rash was no more.
I also thought the comment about Kidney Disease was a bit off the wall, but interesting.
Application
Is much easier than previous version of the stick product I had used. The gel is applied by simply twisting the bottom, and gently pressing it to coat the applicator, then you just rub it on. I always get the right amount on, as the applicator makes it simple, and less of a mess.
Scent
I have never been a fan of strong overpowering fragrances. The scent in Right Guard is mild but lasts a long period of time. It smells very fresh, clean, and goes well with the ambience of just getting out of the shower. Sensitivity to stronger scents & fragrances has always been somewhat of an issue, so when people wear to much cheap perfume I tend to hack and cough. Very please with the overall smell and fragrance of the deodorant.
Performance
Most of you now know I work outside, which causes me to sweat and smell. With Right Guard I do not have to worry about body odor being a problem or offending my co-workers. It lasted through the heavy heat in Arizona without reapplication, and works well here at home during those hot summer days. The best way to describe its performance is 24 hours if left unapplied without a problem. With application of water to my skin like jumping in the water, I could still smell the mild fragrance afterwards.
Overall
Judging by the gel’s performance, scent, and easy application I’ve found that Right Guard Sport is by far my Anti-Perspirant of choice. The scent is mild yet strong enough to last 24 hours, and because the product is a clear gel it doesn’t leave marks on my cloths. Finally the gel jives well with my skin thus relieving me of previous encounters with irritation and rashes.
