Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Aluminum absorption and systemic accumulation, Contact dermatitis and skin irritation and Microbial contamination in roll-on tip 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 Aluminum chloride hexahydrate solution in roll-on applicator base 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.

Both products run through the same public rubric: materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
