Some ideas:
- This recipe with zinc ricinoleate & zinc – hard to get
- Alcohol based: isopropanol? Might not be good for skin
- Try to recreate my current deodorant based on Triethyl citrate (TEC) – probably about 3-5%. Replace propylene glycol with glycerin like this product? Or this one? Formulations on Specialchem (or at least the ones without alcohol) have about 3% glycerin.
Some ingredients:
- Glycerin
- Triethyl citrate (TEC)
- Xanthan gum? HEC?
- Isopropanol?
- pH buffer
I did find TEC (29%) in a product called dermosoft decalect deo MB, which also contains sodium caproyl/lauroyl lactylate (70%) and sage oil (1%). Specifically meant for deo. Maybe I’ll just buy that. At the recommended concentration of 0.5% however that’s only like 0.15% TEC though. Hm.
