This documentary explores how cosmetic products impact our health and provides insights into current research on the subject. The central question of the film is whether the chemical ingredients found in deodorants, particularly aluminum, really are safe. It is revealed that inhaling these chemicals can actually be dangerous, and the film also examines the skin irritations and allergic reactions that chemical compounds and fragrances can cause. An important contribution to the long-running controversy about using chemicals to combat side-effects of one of the body’s most significant natural functions: sweating.
