Nivea Dry Comfort Deodorant Antiperspirant Roll-On

Editor’s Pick: Nivea Dry Comfort Long Lasting Antiperspirant

TFG’s own editor found the Nivea Confidence Deodorant while she was travelling in Thailand and absolutely fell in love. It’s the “best stuff” she’s ever used, and since finding it she’s never gone back. It holds up well in humidity, doesn’t stain clothing and overall smells great.

Alex shared, “I’ve spent 9 hours stuck on the slowest, stickiest, most cramped ferry in Indonesia and still smelled fresh at the end. I’m quite a sweaty little human, so this is AWESOME!” This stick features motionsense technology and promises 48 hour protection against sweat and body odor.

But Alex isn’t the only one that loves this deodorant, TFG readers rave about how effective it is. One TFG reader simply said, “Best. Stuff. Ever.” While another shared that they were thrilled to find out they could get it in Canada. You can also find it in Europe, Asia and Latin America.

This all natural ‘anti-odorant’ comes in a bio plastic sugarcane tube and is, totally innocent, containing no animal derived ingredients; no animal testing; is 100% vegan; no aluminum, no salts, no propellants, no mineral oils, no parabens, no artificial fragrances, and no incomprehensible chemical compounds

One TFG reader shared, “Nuud is a tiny eco friendly tube, you use a pea size for each arm. It’s made with colloidal silver so it just kills all bacteria/odor. Not an antiperspirant. But it’s amazing for packing, and lasts forever.”

Empty Deodorant Container

Tips for Packing Deodorant

Packing your toiletries (including deodorant) does not have to be challenging! TFG readers had some great tips and tricks to share about how you can pack your products for maximum space.

TFG reader shared that to save space you can take a portion of your deodorant instead of the whole stick. One reader instructed “Take a chunk of your deodorant container, melt it in the microwave, and pour it into a smaller container. You can find empty containers on Amazon.”

If you don’t have an empty container, another reader suggests using an empty chapstick container instead.

And, if you’re working with a gel instead, another reader said that you “squeeze it out into little travel plastic screw jars. Saves sooo much space. (It’s also an eye opener to see how little there is in those giant plastic applicator bottles it normally comes in).”

These are the best travel containers!

Is Deodorant A Liquid For Air Travel TSA?

When it comes to traveling with a travel size deodorant stick, it can come in your carry on so long as it’s a solid. If you’re working with a liquid or gel, you’ll have to make sure that you take an amount that’s 3-1-1 compliant.

Do You Need a Travel Size Deodorant?
