How to use QV Naked Deodorant
Apply to clean, dry underarms in the morning or after showering. For best results, apply at night - aluminium chlorohydrate takes 6 to 8 hours to form a protective layer in sweat ducts, and overnight application gives maximum effect by morning. Allow 30 seconds to dry before dressing to avoid transfer to clothing.
Avoid applying immediately after shaving or on broken skin.

Frequently asked questions
What does "Naked" mean in QV Naked Deodorant?
"Naked" means the formula is stripped of fragrance, colour, lanolin and parabens - leaving only the ingredients essential for the deodorant's function. The QV Naked range across body wash, deodorant, shampoo and conditioner is designed specifically for sensitive-skin sufferers who react to perfumed personal care.
Is QV Naked Deodorant aluminium-free?
No - QV Naked Deodorant is an anti-perspirant that contains aluminium chlorohydrate, which is what gives it the sweat-blocking effect. If you specifically want an aluminium-free deodorant, this is not the right product. The "Naked" in the name refers to being fragrance-free, not aluminium-free.
Can I use QV Naked Deodorant after shaving?
It is best to wait several hours after shaving before applying any anti-perspirant, including QV Naked Deodorant, to avoid stinging on micro-cuts. Many users apply the deodorant at night and shave in the morning (or vice versa) to give skin time to recover between the two.
Is QV Naked Deodorant safe in pregnancy?
QV Naked Deodorant is widely used during pregnancy because it is fragrance-free and free of typical sensitive-skin triggers. As with any personal care product, talk to your doctor or midwife if you have specific concerns about aluminium-based anti-perspirants during pregnancy.
