How to choose the best option for you

• Antiperspirants and deodorants. We use them for
  our underarms, but what exactly are they? Its a
  common misunderstanding that antiperspirants and
  deodorants work the same way, and the terms are
  often used interchangeably because they tackle
  similar problems. But heres how they work
  Deodorants reduce odour, while Antiperspirants
  prevent both odour and sweat.

• It's a common misunderstanding that
  antiperspirants and deodorants work the same way
  since the terms are often used interchangeably.

Antiperspirants The Best for Sweat

• Its right there in the name antiperspirants are
  anti-perspiration. They inhibit the flow of sweat
  to the skin surface. Antiperspirants contain
  aluminum salts, such as aluminium chloride, as
  their active ingredient. When aluminium salts
  come in contact with moisture on the skin, they
  dissolve and form a gel. This gel acts as a
  temporary barrier over the sweat glands, so less
  sweat can reach the skin's surface.

Deodorants The Best for Body Odour

• Deodorants combat body odour. Body odour isnt
  caused by sweat itself, which is mainly water
  its produced by the mix of bacteria that live on
  the skin, break down our sweat, and give off the
  scent we recognise as B.O. Deodorants use active
  ingredients like alcohol, sodium stearate, and
  sodium chloride to eliminate bacteria,
  antimicrobials to slow bacteria growth, and
  fragrances to improve smell. However, You won't
  be able to stop sweating by applying a deodorant
  because it won't stop the production of
  perspiration.

How To Choose

• When choosing between an antiperspirant and
  deodorant, here are some questions to ask
  yourself

• Whats my main concern?
• If its only body odour, you can stick to
  deodorant. If its the amount you sweat, go for
  an antiperspirant or antiperspirant deodorant.
• If youre managing excessive sweat, a clinical
  strength antiperspirant like Stop Sweat Fix is a
  great option with 20 aluminium chloride
  hexahydrate, its the strongest protection you
  can get without a prescription.

7
What Kind Of Skin Do I Have?

• Since we typically use an antiperspirant or
  deodorant every day, its important to choose
  ones that keep our skin in good condition. If you
  have sensitive skin or a history of conditions
  like eczema or psoriasis, try a fragrance-free
  formula. If your skin tends to dryness, use a
  soft-solid formula or a product that has added
  conditioners.

Safety Matters

• There is no scientific research to suggest that
  any of the ingredients used in antiperspirants,
  including aluminium, are damaging to your health.
  Antiperspirants, deodorants, and other products
  for hyperhidrosis are all effective and safe to
  use frequently.
