What is an undertone?

An undertone is the color beneath the surface of your skin, which never changes (even with a tan). There are three types of undertones:

Pink/Cool

I see red or pink undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin burns easily, but barely tans.
My skin looks better in silver jewelry than gold.

Neutral

I see both pink and yellow undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin sometimes burns and sometimes tans.
My skin looks good in both gold and silver jewelry.

Yellow/Warm

I see yellow or golden undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin rarely burns, but tans easily.
My skin looks better in gold jewelry than silver.

AKT

In 2015, Ed Currie and Andy Coxon met performing in a show in London’s West End - the “British Broadway”. Their grueling schedule was intensely physical; eight shows a week, dancing under hot lights, a dressing room five flights away from the stage — and no lift. That’s not to mention the rehearsals, classes, and training during the day.

Mainstream deodorants just weren’t cutting it.

Antiperspirants stained their clothes, didn’t stop the sweat, and made them smell like teenage boys. Natural deodorants left them smelling like B.O after only a few hours. So they decided to create one themselves.

The Deodorant Balm is packaged in aluminum tubes (including the cap!) ideal for their durability, portability, and recyclability.

AKT is designed with efficacy, strong environmental ethics, and premium fragrances at its forefront. Tried, tested and approved by London's West End performers, The Deodorant Balm is a premium, natural deodorant that is truly... BORN TO PERFORM.

I ordered the Columbia road

"I ordered the Columbia road deodorant and the applicator and assistant. The deodorant smells divine and lasts long- I'm so impressed by this. The applicator comes in handy for Gua sha rituals while the assistant really helps me in getting out product from the tube. Will definitely tell everyone I love about AKT."

Tried AKT after using antiperspirant

"Tried AKT after using antiperspirant sprays that offer 72 hours of protection, WHY, I shower everyday, at the end of the day with 72 hours of protection, I could smell body odour under my arms so thought I'd try a new approach."

"I was given SC. 01 as a gift and have been back to buy the Discovery Set since. All of the scents are excellent. I bought The Applicator too. It seems simple but really adds to the experience. A moment of indulgence in the simplest of daily AKTs. Bravo!"
