Deodorants, Antitranspirantien
Underarm sweating Antiperspirants contain aluminum salts, which cause a mechanical closure of the sweat gland ducts. Sweating won't stop, but we can temporarily limit it. The effect of antiperspirants lasts up to 48 hours after one application, and therefore they must be applied daily. They are effective for mildly increased sweating in the underarms. Deodorants reduce the level of odor formation. Traditional deodorants do not regulate sweating, so it is advisable to use products that combine an antiperspirant and deodorant. If you have sensitive skin that is easily irritated, or if you are even allergic, avoid products that contain alcohol. Always apply deodorants or antiperspirants only to clean and dry skin, not to slightly sweaty skin during the day.
