Sadly, the “secure” deodorant manufacturers in the marketplace have been progressively cheapening their merchandise over time. This pattern appears to have gained momentum since 2020.

Ingredient Substitutions
My private desire for selfmade deodorant formulations is to make use of magnesium hydroxide powder because the energetic ingredient as an alternative of baking soda.
Magnesium hydroxide may be very light on delicate pores and skin, though it’s barely costlier.
Even when your pores and skin isn’t significantly delicate, baking soda formulations might burn after you sweat (pH goes too excessive) or in the event you use them proper after shaving.
One other substitution is natural cornstarch for arrowroot powder. This substitution is a barely cheaper possibility.
I choose mango butter in my deodorant formulation as a result of I discover it non-greasy. Be at liberty to substitute shea butter or cocoa butter in the event you choose!
My favourite important oils to make use of in selfmade deodorant are vanilla, orange, vanilla orange (half-and-half), or lavender. You can too omit the non-obligatory important oil for an unscented formulation.
