The "Shower Clean" mini series is a classic anhydrous solid. It utilizes a high concentration of Aluminum Zirconium Tetrachlorohydrex GLY (18.2%) to provide reliable moisture occlusion. While effective for travel, the inclusion of paraffin and fragrance should be noted for those with sensitive skin barriers.
Cyclopentasiloxane is the primary carrier, ensuring a smooth, non-greasy application that leaves active salts in place. This concentration is designed for professional-grade efficacy without extreme acidity. BHT and synthetic fragrance are present to stabilize the formula and provide a cosmetic scent.
To maximize efficacy and maintain skin comfort, apply to dry skin. If product pilling occurs, it is typically indicative of over-application of the wax-based matrix. Daily cleansing is recommended to prevent follicular clogging.
- Maintenance Benefits: High-load aluminum salt for sweat management; Cyclopentasiloxane base prevents tugging on delicate skin; compact size maintains stability during travel.
- Formula Considerations: Contains fragrance components; potential for white marks on dark fabrics; requires thorough daily cleansing.
