Coconut Oil: In addition to moisturizing and soothing the skin, a 2019 study published in the Journal of Traditional and Complementary Medicine concluded that coconut oil protects the skin by enhancing skin barrier function through its ability to suppress inflammation.
A study published in Archives of Dermatological Research reported that daily usage of store-bought antiperspirants stimulated odor-producing bacteria. In contrast, coconut oil contains natural antimicrobial properties that may help to rebalance the skin microbiome, which would reduce malodor. Whether applied topically or ingested, coconut oil is broken down to lauric acid and monolaurin, which have significant antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria, as well as a number of fungi, according to a study published in the Journal of the American Oil Chemists’ Society.
Arrowroot powder: is used in deodorant because it is absorbent and helps to keep the skin dry.

Baking Soda: Because of its antibacterial properties, baking soda decreases bacterial abundance, which reduces malodor. It's alkaline, which helps to neutralize acids and maintain proper pH for prevention of malodor formation.
