Key Benefits
Safety & Sustainability: Non-irritating, non-sensitizing, and rapidly biodegradable into natural compounds common in the human die
Broad-Spectrum Protection: Highly effective against a wide range of microorganisms, with Glyceryl Caprylate reinforcing the overall efficacy.
Specialized Active Performance: Shows extraordinary activity against Propionibacterium acnes, making it ideal for dermo-purifying/acne-prone skin applications.
Natural Deodorant Active: Effective against odor-causing bacteria such as C. xerosis and S. epidermidis.
