A natural deodorant balm from London that goes on as a cream and sets to a dry, invisible powder. AKT's Deo-Barrier Complex, a blend of plant and mineral powders including diatomaceous earth and arrowroot, rests on the skin to absorb moisture and neutralise odour, without aluminium salts and without blocking pores. It was tested on stage in London's West End, where a deodorant either works under hot lights or it doesn't.

Why we chose it: it is the first natural deodorant we have found that people who actually sweat keep using. Aluminium-free, vegan, plastic-free, and the scents are composed like fine fragrance rather than like bathroom products.

SC.04 Halcyon Summers opens with fresh mint, pomelo and coastal wind, moves into cascading geraniums, tomato vines and sun-warmed skin, and settles on vetiver and a gin and tonic. A long summer afternoon with no plans.

50 ml. One tube lasts 6–8 weeks of daily use.

Aluminium-salt free: deodorises and absorbs perspiration without blocking pores
Balm-to-powder texture: goes on like a moisturiser, dries invisible, no white marks, no stains on clothes
Skin-conditioning base of shea butter, calendula and vitamin E
Vegan and cruelty-free, made in the UK
Plastic-free aluminium tube, fully recyclable; one 50 ml tube lasts 6–8 weeks
Multi-award-winning formula, tested on stage in London's West End

Break off the nozzle tip and keep it as a plug to reseal the tube.

Squeeze a pea-sized amount onto a fingertip (or AKT's The Applicator) and massage into clean, dry underarms until the balm turns to powder. Once a day is usually enough; reapply after sport if you like. Also works on feet, chest and the small of the back.

Not an antiperspirant: it lets you sweat, it just takes care of the odour and the moisture. The formula contains sodium bicarbonate and essential oils, so patch test first if your skin is reactive.

Key ingredients: Deo-Barrier Complex (diatomaceous earth, arrowroot, non-nano zinc oxide, sodium bicarbonate, magnesium oxide), shea butter, calendula, vitamin E.
