Beauty & Personal Care · Antiperspirants (Aluminum)

Are aluminum antiperspirants safe?

Reviewer consensus

Mainstream regulatory bodies (FDA, American Cancer Society) have not established a link between aluminum-based antiperspirants and cancer or Alzheimer's, and the products in this roundup are all OTC-compliant. That said, the topic is contentious in zero-waste and natural-deodorant communities, so if you prefer to avoid aluminum entirely, an aluminum-free deodorant is a separate category.
