Description
Aluminum Chlorohydrate is used in cosmetics as an active ingredient in antiperspirants. It has the ability to reduce sweating by blocking sweat glands. It penetrates the upper layers of the skin and forms a gel-like film on the surface of the sweat glands. This helps reduce sweat secretion and prevents unpleasant odors associated with the spread of sweat bacteria on the skin. It is important to note that some studies suggest a possible link between the use of aluminum in antiperspirants and the risk of developing certain diseases, including breast cancer and neurological disorders. However, there is a need for further research to establish an exact link and the safety of using such products.
