Aluminium Chlorohydrate (ACH) is a chemically synthesized active ingredient used in deodorants and antiperspirants. It clogs the ducts of sweat glands and thus reduces sweat secretion. Aluminium Chlorohydrate also has antibacterial properties.
Aluminium Chloride (AC) is a chemically synthesized active ingredient in antiperspirants. It clogs the ducts of sweat glands and thus reduces sweat secretion. AC molecules are smaller than ACH molecules so they can get even deeper into the sweat ducts and keep them closed for longer. Aluminium Chlorohydrate also has antibacterial properties.
Can changing my lifestyle affect the amount I sweat?
Changing your lifestyle can improve symptoms and make you feel better about yourself. Avoid spicy foods and alcohol. Wear loose clothing, ideally natural fibers – such as cotton – against your skin, and wear leather or canvas on your feet.
How do antiperspirants work?
Antiperspirants act on the eccrine and apocrine sweat glands, reducing sweat secretion. Because there’s less sweat you’ll notice less dampness and less odor. Antiperspirants contain active substances such as Aluminium Chlorohydrate (ACH) and Aluminium Chloride (AC). Eucerin 48h Anti-Transpirant Roll-On contains ACH and Eucerin 72h Anti-Transpirant Intensive Pump Spray contains both ACH and AC. AC molecules are smaller and have a lower pH value than ACH molecules so they can get even deeper into the sweat ducts and keep them closed for longer. Even small quantities of antiperspirant can effectively reduce sweating. You can read more about how deodorants and antiperspirants work in sweating – what it is and how it affects people.
