Inspired by the ancient Chinese art of Gua Sha, this tool pairs perfectly with your Deodorant Balm. Integrate this self-care ritual into your daily routine for a moment of tranquility while applying your deodorant. Simply glide it across your feet, forehead, chest, underarms, and beyond to enjoy the holistic benefits of traditional Gua Sha.

Specially designed for applying AKT’s Deodorant Balm, this product transforms your daily deodorant routine into a luxurious act of self-care. By using stroking motions across your body, you not only apply deodorant but also stimulate your circulatory, immune, and lymphatic systems, reducing inflammation, stress, and muscle tension. Crafted from pure premium brass, this naturally antimicrobial applicator ensures safety and confidence, enhancing your relaxation experience with every use.

Founded by West End performers Ed Currie and Andy Coxon in 2020, AKT emerged from their need for a reliable deodorant. Dissatisfied with mainstream options, they spent three years crafting The Deodorant Balm. Tested by West End cast members, it quickly proved its worth. Designed with efficacy, strong environmental ethics, and premium fragrances at its forefront, AKT offers natural, plastic-free, gender-neutral packaging featuring recyclable aluminium tubes and caps. All formulations are made in the UK and packed into signature, vibrant packaging. Inspired by the demands of theatre life, AKT delivers high-performance, sustainable deodorant for modern living.

Always remember to wash and dry The Applicator after every use.

If you notice temporary redness after use, this is normal as increased circulation brings blood to the skin's surface. Avoid excessive pressure and discontinue use if your feel pain. Consult with a healthcare professional before use if pregnant, under 16, over 60, or managing specific medical conditions.
