1. Applying on Wet Skin
2. Overapplying
Before applying deodorant, thoroughly cleanse the area to remove any perspiration, bacteria, or odor-causing residue.
3. Ignoring Cleanliness
When applying deodorant, timing is crucial. For optimal effectiveness, apply deodorant to dry underarms in the morning.
4. Incorrect Application Time
Antiperspirants and deodorants are not the same. Antiperspirants reduce perspiration, whereas deodorants predominantly combat odor.
5. Using Antiperspirant as Deodorant
Consider the ingredients in your deodorant carefully if you have sensitive skin. Choose a deodorant formulated specifically for sensitive skin.
6. Not Considering Sensitivity
Before applying deodorant, give your skin some time to recover in order to avoid irritation or discoloration.
7. Applying Immediately After Shaving
8. Neglecting Reapplication
