•    Indication:

      o   Moderate to severe sweating of the underarm

•    Ingredients: Aqua, Glycerin, Aluminium Chlorohydrate

​

Although the percentage active ingredient is much higher than in over-the-counter (OTC) antiperspirants, Aluminium Chlorohydrate remains the simplest of the aluminium salt range that is the least damaging to fabric and generally well-tolerated on the skin.

​

Directions for use:

Aluminium Chlorohydrate 20% is designed to be used as a daily antiperspirant and use should continue as needed.
 

When you first start using the product, apply it to dry skin after a cool shower at bedtime.
 

Applying Aluminium Chlorohydrate 20% at night may be beneficial as sweating is limited during sleep which means the active ingredients have a better chance of being absorbed into the sweat glands. 
 

It is recommended that the area where you are applying Aluminium Chlorohydrate 20% is completely dry before using the product.
 

When first applying Aluminium Chlorohydrate 20%, it may take up to 2 weeks to benefit from the full effect. 
 

Apply daily for maximum results and sweat control.
 

For sensitive skin, 2-3 applications per week at bedtime are initially recommended.​

How does it work:

There are two types of sweat glands found in your body – apocrine and eccrine glands. The eccrine or sweat glands are far more numerous. They are responsible for most of the sweat your body produces.

 

When Alumnium chlorohydrate gets close to water aka sweat, it soaks up the water and becomes a gel. The Aluminium Chlorohydrate 20% gel forms a plug in the sweat gland, therefore preventing sweat from reaching the skin’s surface and thus prevents perspiration.

Contraindications:

​

• Do not use this product if you are sensitive or allergic to any of the ingredients.
