About AKT

AKT (pronounced “act”) is The Person al Performance Company with multi award-winning body care that may change your life. Founded by West End stars Ed Currie and Andy Coxon, AKT is by and for those who are “Born to Perform” — on the stage, at work, or in life.

In 2020, The Deodorant Balm made its stunning debut to rave reviews and awards from Vogue, GQ, Esquire, and Harper’s BAZAAR. Plastic-free, aluminium-free, and gender-free, The Deodorant Balm instantly resonated with those looking for a natural deodorant that genuinely worked. Five fragrances and over 700,000 happy armpits later, The Deodorant Balm is already becoming a household name.

To this day, every new AKT product is put through its paces by London’s hard-working theatre community to ensure it lives up to the high standards of its founders. As a rule, AKT’s products don’t break character — ever. It’s this effectiveness that has propelled AKT from the backstage to bathroom cabinets, bedside tables, duffel bags, and carry-on luggage worldwide. And the good news is — the performance is just getting started.

AKT London was born from the minds of two professional actors who were tired of skincare products that couldn’t keep up with the demands of the stage. We don’t just offer premium, high-performance deodorant; we provide the essential "costume" for the skin. Our formulas are designed to perform under pressure, keep you fresh, and allow you to command any room with confidence.

We are currently seeking part-time cast members to represent the AKT brand in local retail locations. In this opportunity through a third-party agency, representatives will bring the AKT story to life in-store by introducing customers to the brand and sharing product knowledge to help them discover their perfect match.
