Where these two actually differ
- We flag Fragrance allergens, Formaldehyde releasers and Glass container breakage on the Puracy and not on the Secret.
- We flag Fragrance allergens and sensitizers and Skin irritation from aluminum salt concentration on the Secret and not on the Puracy.
- The Puracy is Glass jar; water-based cream formula where the Secret is Wax and starch blend (typical antiperspirant solid), which is most of the difference in these two grades.
- The gap is 35 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Puracy is the one to buy.
- We are less certain about the Secret grade, at 55% confidence against 82%, because it discloses less.
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 →
