The Secret Professional-grade Strength formula is a high-performance anhydrous (waterless) soft solid utilizing 20% Aluminum Zirconium Trichlorohydrex Gly. This concentration represents the standard maximum for topical moisture control. While effective for managing heavy perspiration, the inclusion of "ProVitamin B5" and skin-soothing conditioners is strategically essential to maintain the skin surface and mitigate mechanical friction common with professional-grade salts.
Formulation Data Points: The primary mechanism involves the active ingredient reacting with surface moisture to form a temporary physical barrier. The professional-grade designation refers to the 20% concentration and the soft solid delivery system, which allows for enhanced skin adhesion. This helps maintain the skin's moisture barrier while simultaneously managing output from the eccrine glands.
Application Guidelines: For maximum efficacy and to maintain skin comfort, application is recommended at bedtime. This allows the formula to set while the body’s perspiration rate is at its lowest. Application immediately following shaving should be avoided to prevent surface sensitivity.
Attributes & Considerations: Maximum-Level Control: Utilizes the strongest non-prescription active level available. Odor Encapsulation: Features technology to capture and neutralize odor molecules for up to 72 hours. Buffer Complex: Petrolatum and Dimethicone help condition the skin surface to reduce dryness. Usage Note: High lipid content may result in residue on white textiles; thorough cleansing is recommended to prevent pore congestion.
