Refill your deodorant
- When the clip comes off with the remaining deodorant, it's a signal that it's time to refill. Turn the mechanism to the right until it's expelled. Set it aside.

Cleaning
With a hot, damp washcloth and a little soap, gently clean the inside and outside of your applicators, the clip, and the lid. It is recommended to clean your KIIMA applicators between each refill because regular cleaning prevents bacterial growth, ensures product effectiveness, and helps extend the life of the applicator.
