Where these two actually differ
- We flag Aluminum systemic absorption and renal impact, Skin irritation and contact dermatitis, Microorganism growth if applicator is contaminated or stored improperly and Fragrance allergen sensitivity or undisclosed fragrance components on the Antiperspirant Driclor and not on the Primally Pure.
- We flag Skin irritation from magnesium hydroxide alkalinity on the Primally Pure and not on the Antiperspirant Driclor.
- The Antiperspirant Driclor is aqueous solution (aluminum chloride hexahydrate base), roll-on applicator housing where the Primally Pure is mineral-based powder blend (arrowroot, magnesium hydroxide, mica), 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 Primally Pure is the one to buy.
Both products run through the same public rubric, which covers 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 →
