SweatStop® Antiperspirants: A Tailored Range for Every Body Area and Sweat Level

SweatStop® specializes in addressing the unique needs of individuals who experience excessive sweating and odor. With a wide range of 15 antiperspirants, SweatStop® offers the right product for every application and individual need, effectively reducing heavy sweating.

SweatStop® antiperspirants are developed in close collaboration with dermatologists. By carefully optimizing the pH value and the composition of selected ingredients, enriched with skin-caring additives like Aloe Vera or Dexpanthenol (Provitamin B5), SweatStop® products are not only highly effective but also exceptionally gentle on the skin.

For optimal results, apply SweatStop® antiperspirants to dry skin just before bedtime. You'll experience a reliable reduction in sweat and odor after just a few applications.

Proper Antiperspirant Application for Heavy Sweating

Unlike deodorants, which are typically applied in the morning after showering, antiperspirants should be applied in the evening, shortly before bed. You can still use a scented deodorant in the morning if you like.

Antiperspirant spray is ideal for body application as it allows for a wide and even distribution of the solution. The spray form also prevents the transfer of skin bacteria onto the product and subsequently onto the skin.

For hands and feet, applying a thin antiperspirant solution to clean, dry skin is recommended, as it can penetrate deeper into the sweat gland ducts in these areas.

What Happens with Incorrect Application?

If antiperspirant is applied to damp skin, the solution can be washed away by emerging sweat. To ensure full effectiveness, antiperspirants must be applied to clean, dry skin before bedtime. After applying 1-2 sprays, allow the liquid to fully absorb into the skin before putting on nightwear. You can continue your usual washing routine in the morning.

Good skin compatibility is only possible with the right combination of proven ingredients. When purchasing, look for a dermatological certificate and an optimized pH value.

An effective antiperspirant combines gentle and caring properties with strong, reliable action. This is achieved through special processes, such as maintaining a low pH value. Consider these aspects when choosing a product.

How Do Antiperspirants Work Against Heavy Sweating?

The metal compounds in antiperspirants have an astringent effect that inhibits secretion without interfering with the physiological processes of the sweat glands. When using aluminum chloride hexahydrate, metal-mucopolysaccharide complexes form in the epidermis, filling the sweat gland ducts. Metal ions penetrate the ducts of eccrine glands, leading to protein precipitation and functionally sealing the gland ducts in the upper skin layer.

Sweat reduction usually occurs after 1-3 applications, and in rare cases, after a few weeks. With regular use, there may be a regression of secretory cells in the sweat glands. If you take a long break from use, these cells regenerate, which can lead to increased sweating.

Additionally, antiperspirants with aluminum chloride solutions have an antibacterial effect that prevents unpleasant sweat odor. Therefore, they are suitable for both reducing heavy sweating and combating sweat odor.

Is Antiperspirant Safe for Heavy Sweating?

July 2020 - Final Study for EU Countries on Aluminum-Containing Antiperspirants: Impairments from Aluminum Unlikely

"It is unlikely that aluminum penetrates healthy skin."
July 2020
Federal Institute for Risk Assessment, Berlin

The Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR) conducted a health risk assessment on aluminum-containing antiperspirants in 2014. At that time, the data was contradictory. The institute therefore highlighted the need for research on the topic. Now, two new human studies are available, requiring a reassessment of aluminum in antiperspirants.

The result of the reassessment: The BfR states, "Health impairments from the regular use of aluminum-containing antiperspirants are unlikely according to current scientific knowledge... The contribution of aluminum-containing antiperspirants to the overall aluminum load is significantly lower than previously assumed."

Read the full Statement 030/2020 of the BfR from July 20, 2020 here.

Antiperspirants, due to their superficial effect on the skin, are toxicologically and systemically completely harmless. Aluminum chloride hexahydrate is considered toxicologically harmless according to current knowledge. Systemic effects are not expected because the substance is hydrophilic and highly polar, and therefore, also because of its astringent effect, is not absorbed or does not penetrate (Wolf, personal communication 2002, Heckmann and Rzany 2002). This is also the argument of current Anglo-American literature regarding a connection between aluminum chloride hexahydrate and Morus Alzheimer (Exley 1998) (Hyperhidrosis, Reinhard K. Achenbach, page 128). Read more about the safety of antiperspirants here.

Which Antiperspirant Is Right for Me?

Choosing the optimal antiperspirant depends heavily on the specific body area and the extent of sweating. There is no one-size-fits-all product suitable for all body areas, as we sweat differently in various areas. Therefore, it is important to adjust the dosage form and concentration of the antiperspirant to individual needs.
