It’s Time to Give Spray-On Deodorant Another Chance

Aerosol deodorants fell out of favour in the ’80s, when everyone (finally) realized just how bad CFCs were for the environment. That meant the end of spray-on deodorants for a while. Now, new formulations have allowed them to make a much-appreciated comeback. While most men swear by the stick, sprays are great for their total ease of use, long-lasting formulas, and the fact that they go on nice and dry.
