A cosmetic made primarily from talc that reduces sweat and improves the feel of the skin. It is known as "asaerazu" (sweat-free). As the Arabic root of its name, talc (to be liberated, to become bright), suggests, talc is highly transparent. It is also called wax stone, as it is soft like wax and has white, scaly or fine crystals with a pearly luster. This allows it to spread smoothly on the skin and aid in the evaporation of sweat. Talcum powder is made of more than 90% talc, with a small amount of magnesium stearate added to increase adhesion, and is blended with disinfectants such as boric acid and fragrances.

タルクtalc(滑石)を主原料にした,汗をおさえ,肌ざわりをよくする化粧品。〈汗しらず〉の名で知られる。タルクは語源であるアラビア語のtalq(解放される,明るくなる)が示すように,透明度が高い。また,蠟石とも呼ぶように蠟様に軟らかく,真珠のような光沢の白色鱗片状,あるいは細粒状結晶がある。そのため,肌へなめらかにのびて汗の蒸散を助ける。タルカム・パウダーは90%以上のタルクに,少量のステアリン酸マグネシウムを加えて付着力を増し,それにホウ酸などの殺菌剤と香料を配合したものである。
