Description

Zinc Ricinoleate – Effective odor neutralizer, active in natural deodorants

Zinc Ricinoleate is obtained by combining zinc with ricinoleic acid, the primary fatty acid in ricin oil. It is one of the most valued active ingredients for natural deodorant formulations due to its mode of action: it does not block perspiration nor does it possess antimicrobial properties, but rather traps and neutralizes the molecules responsible for unpleasant odor formed during the bacterial breakdown of sweat components.

This mechanism sets it apart from both classic antiperspirants (which block perspiration) and deodorants containing strong antibacterial agents, making it a staple ingredient in natural cosmetics and gentle formulations that respect the skin's natural microflora.


Ingredients (INCI): Zinc Ricinoleate


Technical Characteristics

  • Appearance: Off-white to yellowish granules (pellets), subtle characteristic odor
  • Solubility: Insoluble in water; melts together with the oil phase of the formula
  • Quality: 100% natural origin, according to the COSMOS standard and other standards for natural cosmetics
  • Recommended Dosage: 1 - 3%

Properties and Benefits

  • Effective odor neutralizer acting through a physicochemical mechanism rather than an antimicrobial one
  • Does not block natural perspiration
  • Respects the skin's natural microflora
  • 100% natural origin, suitable for clean-label and certified natural/COSMOS formulations

Applications

  • Emulsion-type deodorants, roll-ons, sprays, creams
  • Foot creams, deodorant body creams
  • Emulsions for wet wipe applications with deodorant effect
  • Solid deodorants and anhydrous sticks
  • Personal care products in general where odor control is desired without antimicrobial actives

Formulation Guide

  • Add to the oil phase of the formula and heat above 85°C until completely melted
  • For anhydrous sticks, adding approximately 5% water to the formula can increase odor absorption efficacy
  • In body creams, a dosage of 1-1.5% is sufficient
  • Stable across a wide pH range (4.0 - 8.0)
  • Compatible with other common deodorant active ingredients in formulation

Usage Safety and Storage

  • Profile: Safe ingredient with good skin tolerance
  • Precautions: External cosmetic use
  • Storage: Store in a closed container in a cool, dry place, protected from light

I also use this one in my personal deodorant recipe and I think it helps neutralize unpleasant odors. it also helps to harden the composition. I recommend to melt it together with the butters, as it takes quite a long time to melt.

For deodorant. Great product for making solid deodorants. Does not clog pores when sweating and does not change the natural flora of the skin.

I use sericit when making deodorants and recommend it. It is definitely a key product, without which the texture and even the success of the deodorant would be compromised.
