The smell of fresh cut grass, soggy dirt from water fights, beer stained dresses from beer pong in the sunshine. What are your favourite Summer scents? I love the smell of BBQ food, cocktails and ice cream that’s been popped out of the freezer ready to soothe your sticky Summer loving body! Summer is full of so many smells and senses but there’s one that us lovely ladies always want to avoid. The smell of sweaty, stickiness, stale from over exertion and the one day heatwave that we call British Summer Time.
I think I may have found the solution … Undercover Agent. A Swedish brand that have mastered the “free from” name when it comes to personal hygiene and body care.
This little bottle of magic is a new wave of “free from” when it comes to the basic need to feel hygienic without smothering worrying ingredients found in your average roll on/antiperspirants such as aluminium, silicons and alcohol. The Swedish company Feel Agency have let me trial this little bottle of goodness during the hot summer weeks (a couple of very cold, rainy days) to see if it really works.
Undercover Agency boast of using 99% of natural ingredients in this product, the only unnatural product being baking soda; using ingredients and elements that occur naturally in our bodies to help make the product the best and most caring; and most importantly, they guarantee a method that lowers the pH level making our scent slightly less gross this stick summer!
What can I say about this product? Did I go overboard and not wash for days on end for the sake of this blog post? Did I run extra miles on the treadmill? Did it work?
In my trial of this product, it was sunny. I had lovely days in the garden, BBQs, nights out, blogging days, days where I didn’t get dressed and date nights! Each and every time I rolled this soft and sweet smelling product onto my underarms I was soothed and protected. I never had that wobble half way through a night out of throwing your best Beyoncé moves where you’re worried you’re starting to smell. I never even had to reapply this product to ensure I wasn’t going off. I shaved and cared for my underarm areas as normal and my hairs became finer and easier to maintain. The area hasn’t had a single rash since using the product. I haven’t had any weird rubbing/itching that sometimes comes in the summer.
I have fallen, hook, line and sinker in love with this simple but oh-so effective product.
I have completely fallen in with the “free from” attitude and would be so reluctant to buy the normal deodorants from Tesco. The lush scents of sweet, summery almost peppery bursts that welcomes me as soon as I pop open the top of this product reassure me that not only will I be selling fresh all day but I will also be protected.
I haven’t stopped living my life and have worked my butt of at my million jobs, I have applied this lovely roll on once in the morning, once at lunchtime and after showers/baths as normal and not felt the need to apply it any more. I am that person that is always paranoid that she smells, so I tak eperfume, roll on, deodorant, body spray everywhere with me and contantly spritz myself to keep my paranoid nostrils at bay. I didn’t need to do that at all with this product. Meaning, my skin wa ssaved and best of all, so was my money!
In fact I can’t recommend this product enough! When doing research for this post, way back when, I discovered that the common ingredients in your stick of roll on include aluminium, parabens and phthalates – ingredients that have been discussed as a contributing factor towards breast cancer and Alzheimer’s. Needless to say, Undercover Agent does NOT have any of these.
