General Questions

Sweating is a totally normal and essential process. Sweat is produced by the body to cool down and regulate its temperature. Perspiration is controlled by the autonomic nervous system. In some cases, this system has a dysfunction and produces more sweat than necessary. For areas affected by this hyperfunction, an application of antiperspirants is recommended. Aluminium compounds seal the sweat glands locally and can thus be used against sweating. 

Antiperspirants only affect the surface and do not get into the blood circulation of the body. One part of the sweat exudes through the liver, while the other part channels its way to the surface of the skin through other sweat pathways, where it evaporates fast and without odour. Whenever antiperspirants are applied to specific skin areas - such as armpits - sweat can easily evade through other body areas. Armpits, for example, only represent 1% of an entire body’s sweat.

Functional Cosmetics Company AG operates four specialised online shops, each tailored to meet specific customer needs:

Antiperspirants can generally be used on any area of ​​the skin. Sweating can also be targeted at several areas at the same time. The excess sweat evaporates unnoticed on other areas of the skin and is partly excreted via the kidneys. However, antiperspirants cannot be used in the case of a generalized overactive sweat gland, i.e. heavy sweating all over the body.

To avoid compensatory sweating, antiperspirants should not be used on more than three areas of the skin at the same time. Various antiperspirants in different strengths are available to combat sweat and odor on different areas of the skin.

Yes, applying antiperspirants to healthy skin is perfectly safe.

EU Statement via the BfR: Absorption of aluminium through the skin is unlikely

  • 2014 The German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR) conducted a health risk assessment of aluminium-based antiperspirants in 2014. At the time, the available data was contradictory. Consequently, the Institute highlighted a need for further research. The industry was requested to measure aluminium absorption through the skin. A task that proved extremely challenging and required significant resources to complete.

  • 2020 On 20 July 2020, the BfR published its final conclusion for the entire European Union, confirming that no aluminium are absorbed through the skin. They stated: "Health impairments caused by the absorption of aluminium through the skin are unlikely." You can read the full BfR Opinion 030/2020 of 20 July 2020 here.

  • 2023 This safety assessment was further confirmed and solidified at EU level by the Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS) (Opinion 045/2023). View the SCCS Opinion 045/2023 here.

In summary: when applied correctly to healthy skin (avoiding freshly shaved skin), the use of these products is entirely safe.

Deodorants prevent the formation of the odour causing bacteria and cover the smell. They only take effect for a very limited space of time, however, as they do not fight the actual problem - the formation of sweat - at its root.
Antiperspirants on the other hand narrow the perspiratory glands and thus prevent the secretion of sweat.

Yes. Antiperspirants are applied immediately before going to bed. In the morning, you can follow your usual washing routine and use a deodorant if necessary.
