@Todos "Anti-yellowing bleaching powder":
"Its anti-yellow formula removes unwanted effects from the yellow discolorations ..."
Doesn’t it match your description, Andrew?

anti-yellowing agents A mechanical engineer once gave me a lecture on the addition of anti-yellowing agents to white plastics. Because the process is more expensive, they are not always used.
Mario Freitas Apr 3, 2019:
Andrew If it's not a bleach(er), I'd stick to Matheus's suggestion.
Matheus Chaud Apr 3, 2019:
Andrew,

I haven't seen numerous results for "anti-yellower". However, there are many products sold as anti-yellowing shampoo, cream, etc. And there are also anti-yellowing agents.
I would choose one of these options, if possible.
Andrew Hunt (asker) Apr 3, 2019:
Mario e Mateus et al many thanks your usual possitive feedbacks, i fear my fault for not investigating the text further, and it would appear that this product is not specifically a bleaching agent but more for taking out yellow ints or high lights so Im inclined to call it Anti-Yellower??
Mario Freitas Apr 3, 2019:
OK If they are two different things, then I have no idea how to call it.
R. Alex Jenkins Apr 3, 2019:
You're not "bleaching" the hair, but taking the yellow out of already bleached, dyed or whitened hair. I think that's it.

Bleach Hair bleach = 1.6 million occurrences (in quotes)

R. Alex Jenkins Apr 3, 2019:
Ideas I'm not qualified to post an answer to this, but a 'non-yellowing hair product' is about the nearest I can find. Essentially, it's a product to remove that yellow tinge in the white hair of older people, or turn younger hair into a platinum blonde effect, I suppose. Never tried it myself.

Thanks, Muriel!
agree Tereza Rae : Se fosse um produto para os dentes, eu iria sugerir 'whitener', mas já que ninguém quer ter cabelos brancos (nem amarelos nesse caso), voto no anti-yellowing.

Portuguese term (edited): DESAMARELADOR

bleach / bleaching agent / whitewash

É a mesma coisa que "branqueamento"
Peer comment(s):
neutral R. Alex Jenkins : That's a bit harsh. Maybe you would whitewash a wall or bleach a blouse, but surely not for hair?

1.6 million occurrences of "hair bleach"
agree Sergio Carré : If Schwarzkopf HairCare uses it, I guess your right. I found it at: http://bit.ly/2TTFmBx

Sim, bleach serve para praticamente qualquer coisa. Obrigado, Sérgio!
neutral Tereza Rae : Mario, muita gente usa bleach pra clarear os cabelos sim, mas acho que nesse caso não se trata de clarear os cabelos, mas sim evitar que eles fiquem amarelados. My humble opinion.

Você está certa. Só depois da discussão eu entendi a diferença. Mas também o que é que eu entendo de pintar cabelos né?
