Ok the product itself is great. I appreciate that even though these scents are somewhat gender neutral, that the lavender is totally fem. It's classic and natural smelling and I love it. The formula works really well, all day, and no irritation. I will buy this again because it's a nice natural deodorant that works, but I do have a suggestion.
I got the tube with the key (assistant) and it seems to work well- my gripe is with the screw on cap. I travel often and I find that oils from the deodorant escape from the threads of the cap and leak onto my stuff. Furthermore, the cap is sometimes hard to open because there's no texture on it. Frankly, while I appreciate that this tube is fully aluminum, the cap just doesn't work and I think it's worth having some plastic just so the product doesn't leak out.
Also, the tube is pretty thick, and without the assistant key it would be pretty hard to use.
OK. The weather won’t decide if it wants to be fall or summer but THAT’S OK! I may sweat through the flannel I pulled out prematurely but I WON’T SMELL thanks to AKT. Seriously. Just buy it.
I always enjoy sophisticated scents. This product will provide the feeling of confidence. I’ve chosen the orange grove. It’s such a unique scent for summer. Highly recommend to give it a try.
Ive been suffering from major BO ever since I’ve moved and been using well water. I tried about 7 different all natural deodorant and this was by far the most successful deodorant. It is long lasting, it doesn’t leave any residue, and even after it wears off (I’m talking 12+ hours) you don’t get that BO stench at all !! I am really impressed with the product. I was nervous about it because of the amount, but once you receive the product you only really need a pea sized amount so it can last you a decent amount of time. Will definitely be subscribing.
Was skeptical at first of using a balm rather than the traditional stick deodorant, but I am completely in love! Thanks for all your hard work!
