Actives
Elixi-ACT TEC is an ester, based on naturally sourced citric acid and ethanol. It is an ideal addition in deodorant formulations and is an alternative to astringent actives, like aluminum salts. This active ingredient does not affect the natural skin flora. It inhibits the lipase based metabolism of sweat components which cause malodor. The colorless and odorless, lipophilic liquid made from natural resources is easy to use and an ideal addition in deodorant formulations.
