Fantastic

Love AKT deodorants. They keep me smelling fresh all day long and all are lovely fragrances. My favourite is Colombia Road.

Great product

I’ve tried lots of different deodorants and wanted something that worked but was also kinder to the planet in terms of packaging and ingredients. This is brilliant. Would recommend.

Standing Ovation

This deo is the best I’ve ever tried- it works better than the bad for the environment ones and the other sustainable ones alike. It smells so lovely and keeps me smelling lovely throughout the day- even when I have a very physical shift! Love. Love. Love!

Literally cannot recommend it enough!

So Instagram had been recommending AKT for the longest time but I had been resisting because I was comfortable using Wild. BUT I was sick of the cakey residue Wild left on my skin and clothes. And I couldn’t rely on it when I went out because I would actually get BO on a night out! (Ick.)
AKT does not give me the same problem. AT ALL. It totally absorbs into my skin and does not leave a crust on the pits of my clothes. The coverage is brilliant and I still smell the fragrance (not BO) well into the day/night. I have been using the Violet, Tonka Bean and Amber one - I’ve never smelled anything like it. It literally smells like the floral and woody scent of a flower shop - heaven! I have the 6-week renewal plan and I had to postpone my last shipment because I still had so much in my tube and I am not being stingey at all. I get out about an almond sized amount and warm that between my fingers and apply to both sides. I rub it in and then I’m good to go!
One only downside (which is possibly my fault for not looking hard enough) is that I can’t see an option to switch up the fragrance between orders. I love this scent so much I would love the option to switch it up and try them all and perhaps even opt for different scents for different seasons?
But overall I am obsessed!

Great in Florida

Very useful in Florida heat and humidity for a multitude of places to avoid too much sweat and chaffing.
