How can I make High Heat Resistant Deodorant?

[Zalo]

I've previously made deodorant using these two recipes:

Coconut Oil Deodorant

1. 5 Table Spoons Coconut Oil
2. 1/4 cup Baking Soda
3. 1/4 cup Cornstarch

Shea Butter Deodorant

1. 3 Table Spoons Shea Butter
2. 3 Table Spoons Baking Soda
3. 3 Table Spoons Arrowroot Powder
4. Tea Tree Essential Oil
5. Rosemary Essential Oil

In both cases, temperatures past 80 degrees Fahrenheit cause the deodorant to get runny, much more so in the coconut oil one.

I'm wondering how I can make a deodorant that works in high heat, and doesn't melt on me.

Other alternatives are welcome.

You can see this thread for a discussion on rock deodorant, I use it and it handles the heat perfectly. :)

I just use a 50/50 mix of corn starch and baking soda. I sprinkle it onto my hands and apply it to my armpits after taking a shower. It works great.
