Review on Nivea Fresh Active Deodorant Stick by Carla Williams

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Fantastic product, questionable business practice

Product Rating (5 Stars): This is the best aluminum-free deodorant I've tried and used. for a couple of years. It DOES NOT DILIGATE your shirts, but it does keep sweat and odor out for a good 12 hours (forget the 48 hour claims, I've never used a deodorant that comes close to half that). Store Review (1 star): This deodorant costs €2 in German stores. It is normal that they make 150% surcharge to ship it to USA as exotic product. But on top of that they add a whopping 5.79 PER ITEM for standard UNREGISTERED shipping. So I paid $28.95 for an unregistered, untracked airmail shipment in a plain paper box for 5 deodorants. The icing on the cake: The goods are sent from Bulgaria, so they are probably even cheaper than in Germany, and who knows if that's true? the same product. Total: $11.64 per stick for product retail in Europe for $2.4.

Pros
  • High marks for hold and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
