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