Where these two actually differ
- We flag Aluminum absorption and systemic exposure, Skin irritation and allergic contact dermatitis, Hypersensitivity reactions to aluminum salts and Solution stability and contamination if cap left loose on the Antiperspirant Driclor and not on the Puracy.
- We flag Fragrance allergens, Formaldehyde releasers and Glass container breakage on the Puracy and not on the Antiperspirant Driclor.
- The Antiperspirant Driclor is Aluminium chloride active, liquid aqueous solution in plastic bottle where the Puracy is Glass jar; water-based cream formula, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
- The gap is 25 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Puracy is the one to buy.
