What does this ingredient do in an antiperspirant?
It is a mixture of glycerol esters of hydrogenated palm oil fatty acids and citric acid. According to CosIng, it works as a skin-conditioning and emollient ingredient.
Part of a system, not a label in isolation
In the catalog it appears near the end of water-based roll-on formulas, next to tocopherol and citric acid. Its share of the formula is small, and it does not reduce sweating.
The annexes of EU Regulation 1223/2009 set no specific restrictions for this ingredient. By composition, it is a derivative of plant fats and citric acid.
The cited sources contain no specific irritation data; as with any ingredient, an individual reaction is possible.
It is not the same as Elaeis Guineensis Oil (palm oil) or Citric Acid: it is a chemically processed product of the two with different properties.
