Natural floral roll-on deodorant

How to make an organic roll-on deodorant at home? Well, it is not that complicated, to be honest, and you can make one yourself in just 10-15 minutes.

Normally a roll-on deodorant is either a gel-based or emulsion-based product. In this post, I will share the gentle and creamy deodorant recipe that moisturizes the skin and provides effective and long-lasting protection. 

NATURAL ROLL-ON DEODORANT 

This product is made with professional natural cosmetic ingredients, but don’t be confused! Today you can purchase it on hundreds of websites worldwide (like amazon.com, where you can find almost anything). I have also made a list of useful websites in different countries, and you can have a look here and find one that operates in your region here. 

We are making an emulsion (cream) and charging it with odor-fighting and antimicrobial actives. The final product has a lovely, velvety, and creamy texture, very comfortable and gentle even on sensitive skin. Nature-derived actives provide long-lasting protection, and May Chang, Lavender, and Palmarosa essential oils give the deodorant sublime floral perfume. 

NATURAL ACTIVE INGREDIENTS

I am going to use three different active ingredients:

  • Zinc Ricinoleate – zinc salt of ricinoleic acid, a major fatty acid found in castor oil. It is used in many deodorants as an odor-adsorbing agent in professional natural cosmetics. 
  • Decalact Deo – is a natural deodorant active blend with antimicrobial properties by Evonik (in Europe, you can order it on a small scale here)
  • Complex Déodorant – a mix of two potent natural ingredients, Farnesol and Triethyl citrate (this ingredient in Europe you can order here)

These three ingredients together work in synergy and protect from lousy odor without suppressing perspiration. No parabens, aluminum salts, or doubtful components – only nature-derived or nature-identical ingredients that provide great results!
