Diheptyl Succinate (and) Capryloyl Glycerin/Sebacic Acid Copolymer). Would this help with the glide or is there any other ingredients I could remove or add? Thanks for your help!

IPM is a nice lite emollient...but there are many lighter. In creams...I use a cascading effect of emollients (IL +IPM+LL)...basically means...use emollients of different weights...kinda gives a depth to the emollients....hehehe...maybe not so important in deodorant.
If I'm not mistaken DIY bloggers suggested powder at the second ingredient.
And you didn't state your formulation was meant to be a stick or a paste-like.
Maybe you can try looking at natural lipstick formulations how do they get the glide.

When you see something you like....enter it here....or an ingredient...and it will provide you with some useful info....at least on those components that are above the 1% line.
Babassu oil is a nice light oil that is solid at room temperature (low melting point though).
Also, hemp oil oxidises very quickly... it smells horrible when it goes rancid. Not sure it's worth adding to a deodorant product!
And I do have Babassu oil but after I purchased it, I started reading everywhere that it is nearly identical to coconut oil, only more expensive 🤷♀️
Thank you for the information!
Good idea about looking at lip stick formulations! I will do some research on that tonight 😊
Quality of oils varies enormously between vendors. The best I have gotten was from NDA... but not far behind was MYO.
And I haven't purchased anything from NDA yet but I have used MYO in the past.
Thanks!!
NDA will almost always win.
Except butters....MYO...hands down the best. (They sell the good Danish stuff!)
