Sure brand benzene deodorants

Sure brand benzene deodorants video

Valisure's November 2021 report highlighted the extent of benzene contamination found in deodorants and antiperspirants from market-leading brands sold in the US. After analyzing deodorants from 30 distinct brands, they identified benzene contamination in more than half of the 108 tested batches of products. Several sets of Sure brand antiperspirants tested positive for elevated levels of benzene. Listed as a class 1 solvent, benzene is a dangerous carcinogen with no safe exposure level, which is associated with the onset and development of multiple types of cancer. Though the FDA tolerates very low benzene concentrations (2ppm) in several drugs for therapeutic advancement, it has no place in deodorants and antiperspirants.

Valisure's testing results

The results of Valisure's revealing research uncovered benzene in 3 batches of Sure antiperspirants, of which one showed contamination at more than 5 times currently admissible FDA levels.

  • Sure Lasts All Day Unscented Aerosol – 11.1ppm / 3.59ppm / 2.36ppm

Despite its presence in deodorants and antiperspirants, manufacturers don't use benzene as an ingredient in their product formulation. Contamination likely results from the byproducts of propellants used to dispense the product out of the can, like hydrofluorocarbon 152a, alcohol, butane, isobutane, and propane.
