In the morning you can wash or shower as normal and apply your scented products. Perspi-Guard® works quietly in the background normalising and controlling excessive sweat.

Who can use Perspi-Guard?

Just about anyone! Perspi-Guard® Maximum Strength Spray is suitable for adults and children over six years of age with the assistance of an adult. Younger skins will be more prone to sensitivity and this is a strong antiperspirant so please take care.

How to apply Perspi-Guard?

Perspi-Guard® antiperspirants perform best when applied on clean & dry skin at bedtime. Take a shower or wash area before going to bed, make sure skin is completely dry, then apply Perspi-Guard® directly onto your skin. That way, you will maximise the efficiency of the formula with up to 5 days of clinically proven dryness. Ensure skin is completely dry and do not apply immediately after shaving / epilation.

Is Perspi-Guard Cruelty Free?

Yes! Perpsi-Guard is cruelty free and free from animal testing. Furthermore, it contains no animal by products so is Vegan friendly.

Will this product sting?

If applied correctly and as instructed, Perspi-Guard should not sting or irritate the skin, however if you apply to wet skin, straight out of the shower or after recently shaving then you may encounter some irritation. Ensure the skin is clean and fully dry before you apply. If you have sensitive skin then apply a small amount first to check your skin’s compatibility with the product.

Where can I apply Perspi-Guard spray?

Perspi-Guard® Antiperspirant Spray is designed for the underarms, but can also help control sweating on palms of your hands, on your back and soles of your feet. These are the most common sweat areas we recommend to treat but you can apply Perspi-Guard® where needed on clean & dry (external) skin. You should test skin for compatibility first and always avoid the eyes.

Can I apply Perspi-Guard spray on the face?

Perspi-Guard® Antiperspirant Spray is not recommended for use on the face as it can irritate your eyes if the product is sprayed into the eyes. Perspi-Guard® Antiperspirant Wipes would be better suited for that purpose and offer a much more controlled application. You must spot test skin for compatibility first before a full applications and always keep it clear of the eyes. Night time application to clean (make up free) skin is required but you can top up if needed during the day.

How often should I apply Perspi-Guard?

It all depends on your sweat level. The formula is clinically proven to last up to 5+ days after one application but your skin might respond differently to it. Some will need to apply Perspi-Guard® more often and more frequent application is fine. Use it as you need to.
