Your guide to switching from antiperspirant to body odour care.

ZINDEO RESET

ZINDEO does not block sweating. It supports the skin microbiome and targets the bacteria associated with body odour.

Switching from an antiperspirant may not happen overnight. From our long-term experience since 2013, we know that some customers may initially experience stronger or less predictable odour, or notice more skin moisture.

That is why we recommend following the ZINDEO routine regularly during the first 3 months.

MONTH 1 — ADAPTATION

The first days and weeks

After stopping antiperspirant use, sweating returns to its natural pattern.

From our experience, we know that during the first days or weeks, some customers may experience:

  • stronger body odour than before,
  • less predictable odour,
  • a greater feeling of moisture,
  • the need to use ZINDEO more regularly.

Everyone has a different skin environment, level of sweating, and body odour intensity. That is why the RESET does not progress at the same pace for everyone.

The important thing is to follow the correct routine and not give up after just a few days.

What to do during the first month

Use your routine every day.

Shower and wash as usual.

Allow your skin to dry thoroughly before applying ZINDEO.

If you are using START and the change is not sufficient, do not apply more cream. Add the Roll-On and switch to the MAX routine.

NOT SEEING ENOUGH CHANGE?

This is important.

From our long-term experience, we know that customers with stronger body odour often need all three steps:

Evening: SALSOAP® → lather on wet skin → leave for approximately 30 seconds → rinse → dry thoroughly → Roll-On
Morning: Anti-odorant Cream

If you started with START and the odour is still strong after the first few weeks, soap + cream alone may not be enough for you.

Add the Roll-On in the evening.

That is exactly why we created RESET SET MAX as the complete routine for stronger odour and a more demanding transition from antiperspirant.

MONTHS 2–3 — STABILISATION

RESET is not just the first week.

From our experience, body odour becomes more predictable for many customers over the following weeks, and it becomes easier to determine which routine works best for their skin.

That is why we recommend continuing regular use during the first 3 months.

Separately, in clinical testing of the skin microbiome, 9 out of 10 participants showed increased skin microbiome diversity after 28 days of daily use.

The clinical result describes a change in microbiome diversity. The duration of the RESET itself is based on our long-term customer experience, not on a claim that everyone needs exactly the same amount of time.

FROM MONTH 4 — MAINTENANCE

After approximately three months, most customers know their skin better and understand how often they need to use ZINDEO.

From our experience, many people then gradually reduce how often they use it — for example, to every other day or as needed.

The goal is not to use as much product as possible.

The goal is to find the lowest frequency at which you can reliably keep body odour under control.

If odour starts to increase again, return to a more regular routine for a while. 

WHAT IF I SMELL MORE AT THE BEGINNING?

It can happen.

Antiperspirants reduce sweating. ZINDEO does not block sweating.

After changing your routine, you may therefore experience natural sweating and body odour differently than before.

From our experience, this happens mainly at the beginning of the transition and does not automatically mean that ZINDEO is not working.

Continue with your regular routine.

If you are using START and the odour remains strong, add the Roll-On and switch to the MAX routine. 

WHAT DID THE CLINICAL TESTING SHOW?

Clinical results and the RESET are two different things.

Clinical testing shows the measurable effect of the product. RESET describes our long-term experience with changing routines after stopping antiperspirant use.

Body odour control

32% lower body odour intensity after 24 hours.*

The effect remained statistically significant after 72 hours.

*Clinically tested on the Fragrance-Free Anti-odorant Cream.

Skin microbiome

9 out of 10 participants showed increased skin microbiome diversity after 28 days of daily use.

MOST COMMON QUESTIONS DURING THE RESET

  • We recommend allowing approximately the first 3 months for regular use.

    For some people, the transition happens faster; for others, it takes longer. This is not a precise biological time limit, but a practical framework based on our long-term customer experience.

  • If you are using START regularly and body odour remains strong during the first few weeks, or you do not notice enough change, add the Roll-On in the evening.

    This switches you to the complete MAX routine:

    Evening: SALSOAP® → lather on wet skin → leave for approximately 30 seconds → rinse → dry thoroughly → Roll-On
    Morning: Anti-odorant Cream

  • Not always.

    For milder odour, START or DAILY may be enough.

    For stronger body odour, however, our experience shows that the complete combination of SALSOAP® + Roll-On + Anti-odorant Cream often works better when used at the right time.

  • During the first 3 months, we recommend a regular daily routine.

    After stabilisation, you can gradually determine whether less frequent application is enough for you.

  • Yes.

    Shower and bathe as usual.
