Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best type of deodorant?

There are many varieties of deodorant, and it can be overwhelming to choose which one.

There are roll-ons, sprays, antiperspirants and ones that mask sweat with fragrance, but it all depends on your preference and lifestyle.

If you travel frequently or find you need a top-up at work, a roll-on antiperspirant is ideal because it’s discreet and the bottles are smaller, making it easier to carry around.

But if you’re partaking in sports or going to the gym, a spray could be the best choice as it can cover your entire body with a few quick sprays after you’re done.

What is the difference between deodorant and antiperspirant?

Antiperspirant and deodorant are different products.

Deodorant masks odour, whereas antiperspirant reduces how much you sweat.

However, quite often both are combined into a single product to reduce sweating and to keep you smelling fresh.

When is the best time to apply deodorant?

Most people apply their deodorant in the morning before they get dressed for the day, but actually, the best time to apply deodorant is at night.

This is because your sweat glands will be more receptive to the deodorant’s active ingredients when they’re less active themselves, giving you more protection against sweat.
