Spray or stick deodorant: What’s the best deodorant for men?

What is a stick deodorant? 
Stick deodorants come in the form of a solid stick with a balm-like consistency. You can apply them directly to skin, like under your arms, to protect against unwanted odors. 

The benefits of a deodorant stick
Stick deodorants don’t need ventilation, so they’re excellent for discrete application in public. Whether you’re traveling or simply going for a workout, you can stay smelling fresh and clean wherever you are. Stick deodorants can also be applied with more precision than dry sprays, allowing you to cover only the areas you want, and making them a perfect pick for on-the-go care.

What is a dry spray deodorant? 
Spray deodorants come in the form of an aerosol formula that fights odors when applied directly to skin. Our carefully-designed dry sprays apply an invisible, dry-feeling powder when sprayed on skin that deliver long-lasting odor protection.

The benefits of dry spray deodorant 
Dry spray deodorants dry instantly, so you don’t need to worry about annoying white films or white marks on your clothes. Some sticks drag against your skin when applied, causing discomfort and irritation, but dry sprays are contactless making them perfect for especially sensitive skin that’s prone to dryness. Dry sprays are also great for hygienic  sharing, so if your friend or partner loves the scent, they can try it themselves.
