If you...Hi Mia - Triethyl citrate is water soluble. If you put it into an oil-based product, you're going to need an emulsifier. Also, I'm a little concerned about mixing it with baking soda… this sounds like the recipe for a fizzy bath bomb more than a deodorant. Can you tell me a bit more?

Do you know anything about this, or have any thoughts about it? <br /><br />Thanks! - and thank you for sharing so much of your knowledge :-) <br /><br />best regards Mia, Norway Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2131647485414323768.post-84273649350337034982013-11-09T16:09:06.486+01:002013-11-09T16:09:06.486+01:00HI Hana - thanks for your kind words! You asked ab...HI Hana - thanks for your kind words! You asked about lemon ester: yes, it is water soluble. It is often paired with farnesol to strengthen the effect, so you may also want to check out farnesol. If you check out the links (bottom right of the blog), there are a few suppliers listed. Aroma Zone offers a 'deodorant mix' that consists of lemo ester and farnesol. Best of luck with it and please feel free to check back and let me know how you get on.

My favourite store bought deodorant is no longer available so I made my own version of it and was wondering why it doesn't work. And now I know - it's the lemon ester! It was third on the list of ingredients of my old deo but I didn't care about it because I didn't know what it was :D My old deo was a spray and that's what I like so my question is: is lemon ester soluble in water? Currently, my diy deo only contains water, ethyl alcohol and lavender and litsea cubeba EOs. Can I just pop the lemon ester in or do I have to use some other ingredients to make it work? Have a nice day and thank you for this great blog! Hananoreply@blogger.com
