Aluminium chloride hexahydrate is supercharged aluminium, used to treat
excessive sweating, also called hyperhidrosis. Aluminium chloride, an aluminium salt, can form a stronger, deeper barrier against sweat compared to other aluminium compounds. It is found in ‘everyday’ deodorants, to give you great but gentle all-day protection. Aluminium chloride is also found in treatments that are applied at night to clean, dry skin and left overnight to allow the active ingredients to work while your body is sweating less.
If you suffer from excess sweating (hyperhidrosis, to give it its medical name), seek out products containing aluminium chloride. If you’re looking for a deodorant antiperspirant that is tough on sweat,
NIVEA Black & White® Max Protection offers strong sweat protection for 48 hour.
