deodorant

Deodorant is a personal care product designed to reduce body odor caused by bacterial activity on the skin’s surface, particularly in areas like the armpits. It works by masking or neutralizing odor and often contains antimicrobial ingredients that limit bacterial growth. Some deodorants also incorporate antiperspirant properties, which reduce sweating by temporarily blocking sweat glands. Applied regularly, deodorant helps individuals feel fresh and confident throughout the day. It is available in various forms, including sprays, sticks, gels, and creams, catering to personal preferences and skin sensitivities.
