17 Best Deodorants for Women 2019 – Best Antiperspirant For B.O.

While deodorant is definitely not the most glamorous product in your beauty arsenal, imagine a world without it. Think of what your sweatiest spin class would be like… or the beach… or a tense office presentation… Scary, right? The best deodorants for women will alleviate any and all sweat anxiety you may have.

When you’re shopping for deodorant, keep in mind there’s a difference between deodorant and antiperspirant. Antiperspirants work by plugging your pores with an aluminum-based compound, says New York City dermatologist Joshua Zeichner, M.D. That means they nix sweating. Whereas deodorants do not. Both fight odor.

A quality deodorant or antiperspirant not only stops body odor, but it also keeps you (and your armpits) fresh no matter the sitch. Behold, the best deodorants for women:
