Deodorants Delivery or Pickup
The Instacart buying guide to antiperspirants and deodorants
Everyone strives to smell fresh and clean, even under the smelliest of circumstances. If you are working out or in warm weather, you also want to feel dry. Finding the correct antiperspirant or deodorant can make all the difference in your confidence and overall well-being. With so many options available, it is essential to find one that will suit your body's needs and your lifestyle. While you may not smell the different fragrances, scheduling your deodorant and antiperspirant for pickup or delivery can be incredibly convenient with Instacart.

Antiperspirant
Whether you have a stressful day ahead at the office or are set for an intense workout, antiperspirants will keep your underarms dry. There is nothing worse than having giant sweat rings underneath your arm. Antiperspirants are designed to keep odors and wetness away, using aluminum as its active ingredient. Some antiperspirants can even offer up to 48 hours of protection. Instacart also delivers various brands for both men and women in antiperspirants, from Dove brands to Degree and Axe.
Application methods
There are a couple of different ways you can apply deodorant and antiperspirant to your underarms. The most common application is the roll-on stick. Both antiperspirant and deodorant are available in this method. To apply the roll-on deodorant, slowly swipe the stick on the skin in your armpit. The key is to move slowly and cover the entire surface. Since the underarm has various angles, a straight application will not suffice. Work at an angle to get the correct coverage. If you have hair under your arms, you will likely need to apply a firmer touch to get through to your underarm.
The second most popular application method for deodorants and antiperspirants is to spray it on. If you use an aerosol can, you will need to shake it up first. Because the can is filled with liquid ingredients, they tend to separate. If they are not mixed, the deodorant or antiperspirant may not be as effective. When spraying the deodorant or antiperspirant under your arm, be sure to keep the can 6in away from your skin and you will get the correct amount of coverage. Too close, and you may get too much on your skin.
Deodorant and antiperspirant consistency
Each deodorant and antiperspirant can have a different consistency. Consistency will affect the way the deodorant feels on your skin and the ease of application.
- Liquid: Aerosol application will have a liquid consistency. It may feel cold when applied to the skin. Depending on the brand, it may dry powdery. Roll-ons also have a liquidy consistency. They are cold and wet upon application. Gels are a slightly thicker liquid.
- Powdery: Deodorants and antiperspirants that are powdery are generally the invisible solid and solid formulas.
- Mineral: These deodorants are natural mineral salts. Mineral or crystal deodorants need to be wet before application. Because of this, the initial feel is wet, but it dries soft and silky on your skin.

FAQs about antiperspirants and deodorants
It all depends on you and your body's needs. An antiperspirant stops you from sweating by blocking your pores. If you naturally sweat a lot, then an antiperspirant would be the better option. If you are only concerned about blocking odor, then a deodorant may be the better choice.
Yes. If you are experiencing heavy sweating and odor, you can use both an antiperspirant and deodorant simultaneously. However, there is a correct order to using the products. Apply the antiperspirant to your skin before you apply deodorant. Some brands combine both into one multifunction product, maximizing your sweat and odor protection.
Since antiperspirants physically block the sweat glands, they are generally the best option if you have excessive sweating. The aluminum in these formulas will help to eliminate any wetness you may feel. If you have more than just the average level of sweat, a few brands have clinical versions that offer a high protection level. They recommend that this antiperspirant be applied to clean skin at night to be effective.
In most areas, Instacart offers same-day delivery for your order. It is incredibly convenient, especially if you are running low on or are out of deodorant. Going out in person may not feel like a suitable choice. To make the process easier, ensure that your notifications are on in your Instacart app just in case your shopper needs to get in touch with you about store selection. If your chosen band or scent is out of stock, they will offer you an alternative. Your shopper may also reach out to you to give you an ETA on their arrival, or if they cannot find your home, they may ask for a cross street or more specific instructions.
You can make changes to your Instacart delivery until your shopper starts working on your order. You can even reschedule if need be. Using Instacart is a simple way to shop for deodorant and antiperspirant.
