I received Secret Clear Gel (in Cocoa Butter Kiss) in the mail back in July for review (no, I did not pay for it) and I saw an opportunity to really put it to the test in New Orleans.
And that's exactly what I did.
The little sample package took up a bit of room in my liquids baggie but I was able to make the sacrifice. It travelled well and didn't leak all over my other liquids. I did find the scent a little strong for my tastes. I'm the kind of person who doesn't really want my toiletries competing with my perfume.
Each night, I would shower and apply a layer before bed. The next morning I would reapply and let it dry fully before I dressed.
While it wasn't really a match for walking around in the sun and humidity, club-hopping and swamp touring, it did keep me feeling much less gross because the scent (which upon application I found a little strong) was still there and I felt like it neutralized my natural body odour.
Obviously I still had some product when I got home and found it was really effective on days that weren't painfully humid, and days of cold sweating in an overly air-conditioned office.
The best part about this antiperspirant was the light weight clear gel. I usually used only one click and found it was enough to cover my entire armpit and it never felt like a wet mess. I also want to mention that it was really great for leaving my poor shirts alone, no white marks found on any of my clothes.
While I liked this product, I will probably use it at night, sometimes waiting for the gel to dry won't cut it on those days I'm frantically rushing out the door or on super cold mornings.
Bottom line: I like it enough to use it again but I'd probably go with a different scent.
