Question

I am looking for a roll-on deodorant formula with the following properties:

  • No scent, no color
  • Antibacterial properties
  • Effective anti-perspiration, especially during heavy sweating
  • Fast absorption, does not leave yellow stains
  • Does not contain alcohol
  • Does not cause underarm darkening

Could you provide a suitable formula? Also, would a formula for women differ significantly from one for men?

Answer

Subject: Roll-on Deodorant Formula Request

Thank you for your inquiry regarding a roll-on deodorant formula.

You requested a formula with the following properties:

  • No scent, no color
  • Antibacterial
  • Anti-perspiration (especially during heavy sweating)
  • Fast absorption, leaves no yellow stains
  • No alcohol
  • Does not darken underarms

Based on your requirements, the staff recommended a formula similar to Clarins Gentle Care Roll-On Deodorant:

  • Water: Remaining part
  • Anti-Sweat™: 20%
  • Propylene Glycol: 5%
  • Methyl Gluceth-20: 5%
  • AnyGel: 1.5%
  • Mild Preserved Eco: 1%

Regarding the mixing process, as confirmed by the staff, all ingredients listed are water-soluble and can be mixed directly without the need for an emulsifier. AnyGel helps to create the gel texture and can also help emulsify small amounts of oil (such as fragrance, if added, although you requested no scent).

Regarding the difference between formulas for men and women, the base formula provided is generally suitable for both. Differences typically arise from the addition of specific fragrances or active ingredients tailored to gender preferences or needs. Since you requested a formula with no scent, this base formula should be appropriate for both men and women.
