The underarm area can be challenging with its thin, delicate skin. What it needs is a care routine to keep it smooth, soft and fresh.

What is the difference between deodorant and antiperspirant?

The purpose of deodorant is to protect you from unwanted odours. In other words, NIVEA deodorants help to reduce the amount of bacteria that cause the smell associated with sweat and give you delicate, feminine scents to help you feel fresh and confident, no matter how long you have been on the go.

Antiperspirants are formulated to stop you sweating and prevent moisture or wet patches. Antiperspirants are also effective as a deodorant. This is because bacteria growth is inhibited due to a lower pH and reduced wetness.
