Though we tend to use the word “deodorant” to refer to anything we roll or spray on our underarms, that’s not actually accurate. Deodorant is simply made to curb body odour, and antiperspirant is meant to curb sweat.
Antiperspirant deodorants contain aluminium, which is used to temporarily block your sweat ducts and stop you from sweating. This is an unnatural process, as the body is meant to sweat. Sweating helps to maintain our bodies proper temperature, expel toxins from the body and send sodium (salt) back into the blood to maintain salinity in the body.
