Why we stand behind it

Tested and perfected on stage in London’s West End and on Broadway, AKT's revolutionary, aluminum-salts free formula transforms from a luxurious, skin-nourishing balm into a dry, invisible powder: actively protecting, deodorizing, and absorbing perspiration to keep you feeling dry and confident – without breaking character. Ever.

Aluminium metal (which is used in AKT packaging) is not the same as aluminum chlorohydrate, a salt commonly found in antiperspirants.
AKT states that their “aluminum metal does not disintegrate or dissolve into the formula and chemically react to turn into the salt- meaning, the packaging doesn't affect the product”

Key ingredients

DEO-BARRIER COMPLEX™: AKT’s proprietary blend of natural plant and mineral powders, which rest invisibly on the skin to absorb odors and natural perspiration – without blocking your sweat glands.

CALENDULA OIL: Calms and soothes irritated skin, known to help with reducing redness and inflammation caused by razor burn.

SHEA BUTTER: Highly moisturising to soften and smooth the skin. Beneficial for dry and damaged skin due to its high content of vitamins and fatty acids.

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.

Usage

Pierce the seal using The Assistant (sold separately) or a pen. Squeeze a small amount of The Deodorant Balm on your finger or The Applicator and massage onto freshly cleansed skin – underarms, forehead, feet or chest – anywhere you need effective, all day protection.

For the travel size: Break off the nozzle and use it as a plug to reseal. Squeeze a pea-sized amount on your finger or The Applicator and massage onto clean skin – underarms, forehead, chest – anywhere you need effective, all day protection.

Pro-tip

Use your fingers or The Applicator to massage into the skin to encourage lymphatic drainage and micro-circulation around your underarms, chest and neck.

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.

Reviews

Good formula, but packing needs improvement

"The formula feels nice on the skin, blends smoothly, and doesn’t leave much residue on clothing or skin after drying. However, every time I open the tube, oil comes out because of normal separation. This is inconvenient and has stained several items of clothing."

Sofia (4/5)

Didn't work so well

"I am generally skeptical of natural deodorants. This one smells great, but didn't end up being strong enough for my taste so it's back to the chemical stuff for me."

Sam C. (4/5)

Great Scent and Gentle on the Skin

"This natural deodorant is wonderful! The subtle fragrance is not overpowering and the natural ingredients are very gentle on the skin."

Norris (5/5)

It works!!

"I have tried MANY natural deodorants, this beats them all! This earthy scent is my favorite so far."

Ashlei N. (5/5)

Love this DO

"A perfectly clean deodorant that works and is approved by Broadway and West End actors. What more is there to say!"

Kate L. (5/5)

Finally!

"Best deoderant, dry easy to use, no waste, no thick clumps or staining clothes."

Karen H. (5/5)

Very satisfied.

"I'm happy with this deodorant. It keeps me smelling fresh all day long! I'm using my second tube now."

Nodira R. (5/5)

Natural deodorant that actually works!

"I love this deodorant. Tried the sample size and then bought the full size. I have tried every brand of natural deodorant and very few deliver. My only negative comment is that the after thunder scent smells very masculine on the body, like an aftershave kind of smell. Will try a different scent next time."

Sona G. (5/5)

Like it

"Like it better than I was expecting"

Margaux G. (5/5)

Surprisingly good

"Smells great, but not over powering. I think my body is still adjusting to it. The first week or two of wears it didn’t hold up though tough work outs, but the longer I wear it the less I’m needing reapply."

Suzie R. (4/5)
