What Is Roll On Deodorant?
Roll on deodorant is a toiletry which is applied to the underarms with a rolling applicator to reduce or eliminate body odor. It generally contains an anti-bacterial agent, a fragrance, or both. Some types of roll on deodorant also contain an antiperspirant, which reduces the amount of sweat released from the treated area. There have been claims that the antiperspirant ingredients contained in some deodorants can increase the risk of breast cancer in the user, although medical research has not yet verified or disproven this assertion. Body odor occurs when sweat released by the glands to cool the body mingles with microscopic bacteria on the skin’s surface. These bacteria feed on the sweat and subsequently release waste, which produces a foul smell. Bacteria survive best in warm, moist environments. Consequently, the underarm area is an ideal bacterial habitat and, as a result, a prime location for body odor.
