Review: Avon Feeling Fresh 4-in-1 Whitening Quelch Spring Blosson Anti Perspirant Deodorant Cream

Here's a review of a popular Avon product simply known as Quelch. Did it live up to its claims? Read my review after the jump!

Name: Avon Feeling Fresh 4-in-1 Whitening Quelch Spring Blosson Anti Perspirant Deodorant Cream or simply known as "Quelch"

Price: Php 99.00

Size: 60g

Where I Got It: The Avon Lady next door

What Is It?

Quelch is a non-sticky deodorant cream that promises to help stop sweat, keep the underarms dry and odor free and also to whiten it in 1 week.

The Spring Blosson variety has a sweet floral scent.

Packaging

The product comes in a standard light blue squeeze tube. The cap closes up well with a snap but notice how the excess cream solidifies at the opening which causes blockage.

Up Close
Here's the cream; it looks just like any other light lotion.

My Take

I have used this product for about two months and I can attest to the truthfulness of SOME of its claims. Yes, SOME and NOT ALL. :) It is indeed non-sticky and spreads easily on skin contact. It also dries pretty quickly: less than 15 seconds methinks. It helps stop sweat for basically the whole day. I've never felt the need to reapply even on the most sweltering day. The scent is also pleasant and even if the scent has gone away, I still find myself odor-free.

Now here's the hiccup, straight up: it darkened my underarms. Oh no! And not only that, the skin on my underarms also feel a bit thicker. I don't know if other consumers have experienced the same situation but here we are. I've noticed though that this is a popular Avon product and that it's been on the catalog for forever. I'm pretty sure I've encountered this product as far as 10 or 15 years back so this must still have a demand in the Philippine market and it that worked well for others. 

But for me? Nah, never again. :) I'm scrubbing calamansi on my pits every bathing time to bounce back.

Thanks for reading this post.
