What is the difference between anti-perspirant and deodorant?
Yellowclocks
- Antiperspirant prevents perspiration (sweating). Deodorant prevents odor.
- Antiperspirants contain fragrance, but they also contain chemical compounds that block the pores to stop the discharge of perspiration. No sweat, no odor.
- Deodorant allows the release of perspiration, but prevents odor by combating it with antiseptic agents, which kill odor-causing bacteria.
