Homemade deodorant tutorial by Donielle at Naturally Knocked Up
1/4 cup aluminum free baking soda
1/4 cup arrowroot powder
5 TB coconut oil
5 drops tea tree oil
3 drops lavendar essential oil
Mix all ingredients together and press into an old deodorant container. To use, let it rest against your skin for a couple seconds to soften the coconut oil, do one slow swipe under each arm and use the palm of your hand to spread it around.
Okay, so I know this is kind of a personal item to have Mommy write about- but I think it's important so here goes! :) I LOVE this deodorant! I have put it to the "mucking the chicken coop in the Texas heat" test and it hasn't failed me! It is not good to use antiperspirants but I do not like stinking!!! A good deodorant will allow you to sweat but keep the smell at bay. It will not contain aluminum or parabens which are bad for you. This is a wonderful deodorant and I am so glad I found this recipe.
Love Always,
Mommy
