TL;DR: In this article, deodorant gel stick compositions comprising from about 0.1 to about 10.0% of active deodorants active, from about 7% to about 35% of intermediate polarity emollients, from 2% to approximately 8% of a benzylidene sorbitol, from 7% and 75% of polar solvent, and from about 5% and 40% of coupling agent.
Abstract: Disclosed are deodorant gel stick compositions comprising from about 0.1 to about 10.0% of a deodorant active, from about 7% to about 35% of intermediate polarity emollients, from about 2% to about 8% of a benzylidene sorbitol, from about 7% to about 75% of a polar solvent, and from about 5% to about 40% of a coupling agent. These deodorant gel sticks provide very stable deodorant compositions with good efficacy as well as excellent cosmetics which are further characterized by their ease of manufacture.

TL;DR: Initial results show that axillary cosmetics modify the microbial community and can stimulate odor-producing bacteria.
Abstract: The use of underarm cosmetics is common practice in the Western society to obtain better body odor and/or to prevent excessive sweating. A survey indicated that 95 % of the young adult Belgians generally use an underarm deodorant or antiperspirant. The effect of deodorants and antiperspirants on the axillary bacterial community was examined on nine healthy subjects, who were restrained from using deodorant/antiperspirant for 1 month. Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis was used to investigate the individual microbial dynamics. The microbial profiles were unique for every person. A stable bacterial community was seen when underarm cosmetics were applied on a daily basis and when no underarm cosmetics were applied. A distinct community difference was seen when the habits were changed from daily use to no use of deodorant/antiperspirant and vice versa. The richness was higher when deodorants and antiperspirants were applied. Especially when antiperspirants were applied, the microbiome showed an increase in diversity. Antiperspirant usage led toward an increase of Actinobacteria, which is an unfavorable situation with respect to body odor development. These initial results show that axillary cosmetics modify the microbial community and can stimulate odor-producing bacteria.
