In the summer season, using deodorant is seen as a common solution to prevent body odor. However, many people apply more deodorant than necessary in an attempt to increase its effectiveness, and this situation can lead to some problems.

Oliver Batiste, co-founder of the natural deodorant brand Make Waves, states that deodorant is generally used more than necessary. Batiste says, 'Most people apply 5 to 10 swipes to their underarms, but 2-3 swipes for each underarm is sufficient.' Using too much product is not only a waste but can also cause stains on clothes and long drying times.

CORRECT DEODORANT USE

Applying too much deodorant can create a thick layer on the skin, extending the drying time instead of increasing its effectiveness. Furthermore, excess product can transfer to clothing, leading to stains and causing skin irritation. Therefore, it is important to use deodorant correctly.

Applying 2-3 swipes to each underarm is sufficient.
It is necessary to clean the skin before reapplying during the day.
It is important to store the product in its original packaging and in a cool environment.
If skin irritation occurs, it may be beneficial to try a different product.
Applying deodorant to dry skin is more effective than applying it to damp skin.

By paying attention to these suggestions, you can make the best use of your deodorant's effectiveness and avoid unwanted results.
