Silk touch deodorant stick
The moment I had my hands on oat silk I knew I want to test it in a deodorant stick. Oat flour imparts a silky skin feel, improves the glide, reduces the greasiness and imparts anti-inflammatory properties to the stick.
I have been making and testing natural (and free from baking soda) deodorants for a few years now and I'm always trying to tweak/improve the formulation.
This years extremely long and hot summer was an excellent challenge for all formulations, specially for deodorants and this is my latest creation.
Formulation:
| Phase A | |
| Myrica fruit wax | 17,0% |
| Berry wax | 7,0% |
| Rice bran wax | 6,0% |
| Babassu oil | 7,0% |
| Cupuacu butter | 5,0% |
| Glyceryl caprylate GMCY | 0,5% |
| Phase B | |
| Triethyl citrate TEC eco | 5,0% |
| Olive squalane | 5,0% |
| Deodorant active decalact deo | 1,0% |
| Tocopherol | 0,5% |
| alpha-bisabolol | 0,2% |
| Lavender CO2 extract | 0,2% |
| Calendula CO2 extract | 0,1% |
| Curcuma xanthorrhiza CO2 extract | 0,1% |
| Rosemary CO2 extract | 0,1% |
| Sage CO2 extract | 0,1% |
| Ajowan CO2 extract | 0,1% |
| Myrrh CO2 extract | 0,1% |
| Manuka oil | 0,1% |
| Phase C | |
| Cetiol ultimate | 5,0% |
| Lexfeel natural | 15,8% |
| Modified rice starch | 10,0% |
| Oat silk | 5,0% |
| Tersil Z (Zeolite) | 4,0% |
| Brazilian yellow clay | 5,0% |
| Allantoin | 0,1% |
Procedure:
1- Weight each phase separately in a beaker.
2- Heat phase A in a water bath at aroun 75-80 oC. This is the temperature for melting rice wax which has a higher melting point than berry and myrica wax.
3- After phase A is melted stop heating but do not remove the beaker from the bath. Add phase B and blend.4- The powders in phase C do not dissolve in lexfeel natural or cetiol ultimate. You need to stir this phase to keep them suspended. Now add phase C to the rest of the blend.
5-pour into stick moulds
6- Put the moulds in the fridge for at least 12 hours (we let them stay overnight).
7- Remove from the fridge
8- Enjoy using this natural and mild deodorant
BeHappy and have fun
