Slow your speed with that stick.
A TikTok famous dermatologist has shared some valuable deodorant advice “that might just change your life.”
Dermatologist Dr. Lindsey Zubritksy, aka @dermguru, posted a quick clip to her feed revealing the best time to apply deodorant for maximum usage against perspiration.
Surprisingly it’s not first thing in the morning — a time when a majority of people apply to start their day fragrant and dry.
“Deodorant at night to stop sweating,” Zubritksy wrote.
Others in the industry, like, Lisa J. Pieretti, executive director at the Hyperhidrosis Society, agree.
In particular, she recommends using an antiperspirant instead of deodorant at night because “antiperspirants stop sweat, and deodorants actually help neutralize any odor, and neutralize bacteria that may cause odor,” she told Yahoo.
“Then in the morning, you can swipe a deodorant, which helps minimize any kind of concerns that you may have for odor during the day,” Pieretti added.
Other skincare tips shared by Zubritksy include splicing Afrin nasal spray with moisturizer to deter rosacea — a common condition that causes facial blushing — as well as leaving dandruff shampoo in your hair for at least five minutes prior to a wash.
“WHAT?!?!?! This is amazing, I’m trying it today,” commented a fellow TikToker.
“Yes deodorant at night is a game changer,” added another.
