Pharmacodynamics
The main effect of the "right" cream from the smell of the feet should be bactericidal. The fact is that often the appearance of an unpleasant odor is associated with the vital activity of certain microbes. If you destroy them, then the problem with the fragrance disappears by itself.
Another property of the external preparation from sweating and odor should be a narrowing of the sweat glands, which contributes to a decrease in the amount of liquid released by the sweat.
Important is the aroma of the drug itself: the presence of essential oils and menthol in the composition provides a deodorizing and soothing effect of the cream.
Also, when choosing a cream from the smell of the legs, it is necessary to take into account the speed and duration of the drug, which makes it more comfortable to use.
The best cream for legs from the smell
Since the range of external products from the unpleasant odor of the feet is quite extensive, it is very difficult to choose the best cream among all the varieties. Well, if the product will contain natural ingredients, such as extract from the bark of oak (dries the skin), lemon extract (deodorizes and cleanses the skin), propolis (eliminates inflammation and kills germs).
Before applying the cream on the feet, it is necessary to check it for possible allergies. This advice is especially relevant for people who are prone to allergic reactions.
In addition, you should not apply the cream to such skin spots, on which there are any inflammatory elements: furuncles, dermatitis, ulcers, etc. Otherwise, even the best cream can give a completely opposite reaction and aggravate the inflammatory process.
If the cream contains hormones (for example, Celederm), then it can only be applied with exact dosage and treatment regimens, since such drugs can cause resistance to the body, signs of intoxication and deterioration of the skin.

However, one should not forget that elimination of the problem of unpleasant odor should be carried out in a complex: observe hygienic rules, choose the right footwear and clothes, walk barefoot on grass, sand, water more often. Such recommendations should be followed even when the problem is completely eliminated. This is the only way to get rid of trouble completely.
