Underarm balm

As temperatures rise, opt for a natural solution to keep you feeling fresh.

Unlike antiperspirants, which work by restricting sweat glands, natural deodorants neutralise the bacteria that causes odour. New L’occitane Shea Deodorant Balm (£17.50, uk.loccitane.com) contains absorbent corn starch and tapioca powders, and a blend of essential oils for a subtle scent. Its creamy texture is easily applied with fingers and dries quickly. If you prefer a solid deodorant, try Frank Body Cucumber & Green Tea Clean Deodorant (£11.95, frankbody.com), made with soothing rice bran oil.
