PediSpray® for sweaty feet
Anti-perspirant foot spray that helps reduce excessive sweating
PediSpray® is a spray for sweaty feet that helps to reduce excessive sweating on the skin. Dry feet mean less chance of odour and wet shoes.
Combine with PediFris® Classic in your shoes for a comprehensive approach.
Why foot spray and powder work for sweaty feet
Sweaty feet and smelly feet are caused by excessive sweating and the bacteria that thrive on damp skin. Tackle the problem from two angles — reduce sweat on the skin and ensure a dry, fresh environment inside the shoes.
Reducing sweating on the skin
PediSpray® (Strong or Regular) on the feet: the antiperspirant inhibits sweat production on the skin and keeps your feet dry for longer.
Keep shoes fresh and dry
PediFris® Classic powder in shoes has an antibacterial effect and keeps the inside of the shoes dry, so odours don’t stand a chance.
Daily maintenance and prevention
Use the spray and powder daily: this keeps feet and shoes dry and prevents sweaty feet and odour from returning.
PediSpray® Regular 15% and Strong 20%
Fragrance-free. No odour masking.
How does PediSpray® work?
PediSpray® contains aluminium chloride, which helps to soothe sweat glands. This temporarily constricts the sweat ducts, reducing sweating on the treated skin.
Camphor also has antiseptic properties. Less moisture on the feet reduces the chance of bacteria causing a strong odour.

It is best to use PediSpray® on clean, dry feet so that the active ingredient can work effectively on the skin.

Application: Spray onto the soles of the feet and between the toes.
Dosage: Use 4 to 6 pumps per foot for PediSpray® Regular and 6 to 8 pumps per foot for PediSpray® Strong.
Leave to dry: Do not put socks on until the skin is dry.
Best time: It is usually most comfortable to apply the product in the evening.
Maintenance: Then gradually build up to a regular routine that suits your feet.
PediSpray® helps to combat
Mild to severe sweaty feet: PediSpray® reduces excessive sweating on the skin, helping to keep feet drier.
Foot odour: Less sweat means less breeding ground for the bacteria that cause the dreaded ‘cheesy smell’.
Athlete’s foot and fungal nail infections: Fungi thrive in a warm, damp environment. By keeping your feet dry, you greatly reduce the risk of infection.
Pitted keratolysis: Helps prevent the skin condition and supports recovery by keeping the feet dry.

Frequently asked questions about spray for sweaty feet
Brief answers regarding regular foot spray vs antiperspirant, Regular vs Strong, use and safety.
What is the difference between a standard foot spray and an anti-perspirant spray for sweaty feet?
Ordinary foot spray masks odour; an antiperspirant spray inhibits sweating on the skin. PediSpray® is an antiperspirant and fragrance-free: less moisture on the feet, so less chance of odour and wet shoes.
When should I choose PediSpray® Regular 15% or Strong 20%?
Choose Regular 15% for mild to moderate sweating and Strong 20% for more persistent sweating. Dosage and maintenance schedule are set out in the instructions for use above.
How does PediSpray® work as a spray for sweaty feet?
PediSpray® is an antiperspirant spray containing aluminium chloride: this helps to soothe the sweat glands, keeping your feet drier. Camphor also has antiseptic properties.
How do I use PediSpray® for the best results?
Spray in the evening onto clean, dry feet (the soles and between the toes), allow to absorb, and then gradually reduce usage to a regular maintenance routine. All steps, dosage (Regular vs Strong) and tips are set out in the instructions for use further up on this page.
How long does PediSpray® last, and can I have a shower?
The effect usually lasts for 3 to 5 days. You can shower as normal: the product is absorbed into the top layer of skin and generally remains effective.
Does PediSpray® also help with athlete’s foot, odour and smelly shoes?
Dry feet are less susceptible to fungus and bacteria. PediSpray® thus helps to prevent athlete’s foot and pitted soles; camphor provides an extra antiseptic effect.
Does odour keep returning in your shoes? Then use it in combination with PediFris® Classic.
Is PediSpray® safe for sensitive skin?
Yes. PediSpray® has been dermatologically tested and found to be suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. If you experience itching, spots or bumps, stop using the product immediately and consult a doctor.
Can PediSpray® also be used on hands or underarms?
Yes, PediSpray® can also be used on the hands, underarms, back or chest. Do not use it on freshly shaved or damaged skin. If in doubt, test it first on a small patch of skin.
