What's the difference between Deodorant and Antiperspirant?Updated 8 months ago

Antiperspirant contains Aluminium Chlorohydrate, which blocks your sweat ducts to stop you sweating. This ingredient has come under a lot of fire recently with supposed links to Cancer and Alzheimers disease but there is no clinical evidence of this.

Deodorant eliminates odours associated with sweat and absorbs natural perspiration to keep you feeling dry. You can find out more on our blog post here.
