    I’m looking for formulate a non-harsh, possibly chemical free roll-ons for the tween market.

    My starting formula is:

    Water 62.4%

    Aluminum Hydrochlorate 30%

    Steareth 2 2.5%

    Sunflower Oil 3%

    Steareth 20 0.6%

    Perfume 1.5%

    Any recommendations on how to make above less harsh and more kid friendly.

    This is antiperspirant with excessive active - Aluminum chlorohydrate max is 25%. If irritation it’s probably this ingredient that you could eliminate - making it a simple deodorant. You’ll need a preservative..

    No idea how you could defend “chemical free”.

    Apart from what Dr. Phil said (too harsh, no way “chemical free”, plus lack of preservative), I hope you’re aware that’s an antiperspirant, not a deodorant.
