Deodorant stick: what is, types and uses

To combat sweating, quite a lot of various effective remedies have been invented, among them a stick is quite common. This type of antiperspirant compares favorably with both price and quality.

The word is translated from English as "bar" or "stick", but nevertheless its designation "pencil" has taken root in our everyday life. Such a deodorant consists of an oblong solid substance, which fills the entire bottle and extends using a special rod through rotating movements. The substance in its composition contains special elements that help to reduce the work of the sweat glands, which means they block them. After the stick is applied to the skin, a kind of film appears on the skin that absorbs moisture, so the sticks are predominantly antiperspirants. In addition, when using them, the number of bacteria on the skin is significantly reduced.

The line of such products offers products for both women and men... They are easy to use and very compact.

Like any deodorant, the stick has its advantages and disadvantages. The main positive aspects of its use are:

• practicality;
• health safety;
• small size;
• profitable price;
• resistance to destruction.

Among other varieties, the female deodorant stick stands out for its shape and design. Rollers or balls can leak in a bag, gel products are quite expensive, and sprays, in addition to being quickly exhausted, are also large, as a result of which they are difficult to fit into a small bag. But still, the main advantage of this tool can be considered its compactness.because people with excessive sweating need to apply deodorant even outside the home. Therefore, its small size greatly simplifies its transportation - it is easy to place it even in a small cosmetic bag.

Ease of use of the stick is also a very important criterion, because in the event of its sudden fall, it will not break or spill, its shape will remain intact.

Despite the rather small size, sticks can be used for a long time: they lubricate very slowly... People using this type of deodorant can be confident that they are safe for their health. Such products undergo many clinical studies, proving that they do not cause allergic reactions and irritations at the places of application, but, on the contrary, gently protect the skin. Many sticks not only prevent sweat, but also give your skin a pleasant scent. Despite the large list of pluses of a deodorant-stick, there are some drawbacks in its use.

The main task of the stick is not only to reduce the production of sweat and eliminate its smell, but also not to spoil the aesthetic appearance of the clothes, not to form stains in the application area. Generally speaking, it is not typical for sticks to leave streaks on clothes, but at high temperatures this option is still possible. In addition, people with dry armpit skin should not use this type of deodorant, since most of them contain a sufficient amount of alcohol, which makes the dermis drier and can lead to irritation in this case.

So that the use of an antiperspirant does not harm the skin, but only brings a positive result, you need to follow a few simple rules:

• apply the product in a thin layer after washing on clean, dry skin (cannot be applied to wet);
• you cannot use a perfumed antiperspirant very often;
• if there are injuries or cuts on the skin, beauticians do not allow the stick to be applied;
• do not use a deodorant stick and perfume at the same time: mixing, they can "emit" a not very pleasant aroma - in this case, it is better to use an odorless antiperspirant;
• if you experience discomfort or irritation after applying the product, you should rinse your skin with water and purchase another product;
• in order to achieve the maximum effect from the use of a pencil deodorant, you should not wear tight clothes in hot weather - it is better to choose loose outfits made from natural materials;
