Brief answers regarding sprays, powders, deodorants and combining treatments.
PediFris® Classic in shoes suits foot and shoe odour; an antiperspirant spray such as PediSpray® suits excessive sweating on the skin of your feet. The location and nature of your symptoms determine the choice.
An antiperspirant helps to temporarily reduce sweat production on the treated skin. A foot deodorant focuses primarily on freshness and odour control, unless the product also contains an antiperspirant active ingredient.
For clammy or wet feet and socks, an antiperspirant for the skin of the feet is recommended. The aluminium salts in PediSpray® help to temporarily reduce perspiration on the treated skin.
Use PediFris® Classic in shoes to reduce foot and shoe odour while you wear them. Spread the powder over the insole and lining as directed.
You can combine powder and antiperspirant when excessive sweating and shoe odour occur together. Use PediFris® Classic in shoes and PediSpray® on the skin of your feet, following the label instructions.
Store PediFris® Classic in a dry place and close the container tightly after each use. Avoid damp areas, such as a bathroom where there is a lot of steam, and always use a dry spoon when measuring out the powder.
Do lumps form anyway? Small lumps can usually be easily broken up.
PediFris® Classic may occasionally form small lumps. These can usually be easily broken up. Have small lumps ended up in your shoes? That’s no problem: they’ll dissolve whilst you’re wearing them.
A little goes a long way: use about half a teaspoon of PediFris® Classic per shoe. If you notice a few traces of powder on the floor after taking your shoes off, you’ve probably used a bit too much. Feel free to use a little less next time.
You can easily vacuum up the traces of powder or wipe them away with a damp cloth.
