Deodorant for 11 year old

Hi,

My ds (11) needs deodorant now and I’m wondering what others would suggest? I don’t know much about them. Is an adult type one ok or would you get one specifically for kids? He’s pretty laid back so I don’t think he’d mind if it’s a spray or roll on.

Thanks!

Just make sure it says anti - perspirant on the tin.

My 11 year old just uses a normal roll on and spray.

As @crimsonlake said, make sure it's antiperspirant and not body spray which is basically nice smelling but does nothing for sweat/body odour

They do a young teen range in boots but mine just use normal roll on now.

Ben & Anna deodorant is good if you're looking for something more natural. It's got arrowroot, so does keep you dry, but isn't an antiperspirant as such. I've found it excellent, but may not be for everyone.
