Colgate-Palmolive Files Patent on ‘Anti-Irritant’ CBD Antiperspirant via Cosmetics Design Asia

Personal care major Colgate-Palmolive has developed an antiperspirant formula containing cannabidiol (CBD) that it says works as an anti-irritant on the skin. Writing in its international patent, Colgate-Palmolive said it had developed the antiperspirant in response to a growing need for gentler, anti-irritant antiperspirants and to align with the surging interest in CBD. The formulation had been designed for use in various antiperspirant deodorant forms, including roll-on, stick, gel and even aerosol.

Colgate-Palmolive said whilst there was a wealth of “conventional antiperspirant salts” used by industry, including aluminium and zirconium salts, many could cause skin irritation. And with an estimated 50% of the world population considered to have sensitive skin, it said there was a clear need for an alternative. “It is therefore desirable to develop and formulate efficacious anti-irritant ingredients into personal care products to mitigate potential irritant-induced redness, tingling, itching, or burning of the skin to a tolerable level for improved consumer compliance,” Colgate Palmolive wrote in its patent filing.
