Product Description
Magnesium Hydroxide is a versatile mineral ingredient commonly used in personal care formulations as a natural deodorizing agent and pH-adjusting ingredient. It works by helping to neutralize odor-causing compounds rather than masking them, making it a popular choice in natural deodorants, body powders, and odor-control products.
Its gentle nature compared to some alternatives makes it suitable for many skin care applications where odor management and alkalinity control are desired. Magnesium Hydroxide can also contribute to a smooth, creamy texture in certain formulations.
