Best Gel Deodorants of 2019

September 30, 2018 By Sabine Nipson Leave a Comment

Finding a good gel deodorant in stores is like trying to find a needle in a haystack, but thankfully online shopping has helped solve the problem.

Many people prefer gel deodorants because they don’t stain clothing and seem to last longer than classic stick deodorants. We’ve assessed the following deodorants based on how long they last, the container size, and price.

Best Gel Deodorants for Women

1. Mitchum Anti-Perspirant & Deodorant for Women

Best Gel Deodorants Mitchum Anti-Perspirant & Deodorant for Women

See Latest Price!
Scent: Doesn’t smell too strong, it’s like a fresh summer breeze
Lasting Time: At least 12 hours
Deodorant: Yes
Antiperspirant: Yes
Invisible: Yes

We tried a couple of different deodorants before stumbling upon the Mitchum brand as the best of the best. Surprisingly, it’s also one of the cheaper deodorant brands on Amazon.

People love it because of how well it goes on, stays invisible, and lasts a full 12-hour shift without having to be re-applied on breaks or at lunch.

Pros
Applicator has tiny slits that control the amount that comes out
It’s a true gel deodorant, not one of those gel bars
The gel is thick enough that it stays on your pits and not your clothing
Cons
The packaging advertises 48 hours of sweat-free life, in reality, real users got around 12 hours

2. Secret Scent Expressions Invisible Solid 48-Hour Anti-Perspirant and Deodorant

See Latest Price!
Scent: Lavender
Lasting Time: About 10 hours
Deodorant: Yes
Antiperspirant: Yes
Invisible: Yes

Invisible solid deodorants are fudging it a little bit, but I liked the scent of this one enough to finish the container I bought. It doesn’t stain clothing, and the rich lavender smell had my co-workers asking me if I was using a new perfume.

It was pleasant and followed me throughout the day while also keeping me drier than low-tide at the end of my shift. Unfortunately, it’s a bit more expensive than Mitchum’s, but if you like the smell, it’s probably worth the extra cost.

Pros
Amazing scent that lasts all day, I got compliments on my deodorant!
Sold in a two-pack, too
Glides on just as smooth as gel and doesn’t stain clothing
Cons
Technically not a gel; it’s an invisible solid, but it fooled me
Only about 10 hours of protection, not 48 as advertised

3. Secret Clinical Strength Antiperspirant and Deodorant Clear Gel

Scent: Cherry-like, almost like Jolly Ranchers
Lasting Time: 36 hours
Deodorant: Yes
Antiperspirant: Yes
Invisible: N/A

For all the ladies who sweat more than a long-tailed tomcat in a room full of rockers, you need something with a little more punch. Out of all the deodorants we tried for this list, the Secret Clinical was the best women’s gel deodorant for long-lasting protection.

Pros
Doesn’t leave white marks on your clothing (if you let it dry)
Lasts longer than any other deodorant on this list
Seems to work well for ladies with over-active sweat glands
Cons
Sticky after application, you have to wave your arms around to dry it
Expensive for the amount you get compared to other products

Best Gel Deodorants for Men

1. Mitchum Clear Gel Antiperspirant & Deodorant

Scent: Doesn’t really smell, very faint
Lasting Time: 12 hours
Deodorant: Yes
Antiperspirant: Yes
Invisible: Yes

We were so pleased with the results we got from the Mitchum gel deodorant for women that we just had to try the men’s variety. The people who tested it said they felt like it lasted long enough, but also that they didn’t really care for the lack of scent.

Pros
Goes on smooth and is easy to apply
Dries quickly once applied
Keeps you dry all day
Cons
Only lasts about 12 hours instead of advertised 48 hours
Absolutely no scent, which some users may find weird

2. Old Spice High Endurance Clear Gel

Scent: Gender neutral, smells like fresh water
Lasting Time: 24 hours
Deodorant: Yes
Antiperspirant: Yes
Invisible: Yes

Since the main complaint about the previous deodorant was the lack of smell, we tried this Old Spice gel deodorant to give it a whirl. We really liked the fresh scent of this one enough that it has become what mu husband wears every day. The fragrance itself is gender-neutral to me, so I’ve used this one a few times myself.

Pros
Smells clean and fresh
Lasted a full 24-hours for my husband
Washes away easy and doesn’t gunk up your arms
Applies smoothly and is invisible after dry
Cons
The applicator doesn’t click, so it’s hard to judge amounts
Can burn if applied directly to fresh-shaven pits

3. Gillette Clinical Clear Gel Cool Wave Antiperspirant and Deodorant

Scent: Strong and manly scent, hints of sandalwood
Lasting Time: 36 hours
Deodorant: Yes
Antiperspirant: Yes
Invisible: Yes

Since we tried a clinical strength deodorant for women, we decided to try one for men as well. The only one that looked on par with Secret Clinical is Gilette Clinical for men. Most testers liked it, but due to how expensive it is, we decided on the Old Spice as the best gel deodorant for tests.

Pros
Applies smooth and dries in a matter of seconds
Lasted long enough for hubby to skip days
Smells like men’s cologne
Blocks heavy odors thanks to the strong smell
Cons
The applicator isn’t the best
Some men reported a few pit stains after wearing this

Conclusion

We tested a variety of gel deodorants to find the best gel deodorant for both women and men. Male users decided on the Old Spice, while females were still sticking it out with Mitchum’s. Finding the right balance between smell, protection, and price was a month-long search, but well worth it.
