As a family, we are trying to move to more natural products for home use and personal care. I have tried just about every deodorant out there, with little success. Forget the so called "natural" ones, they work on me for about 2 minutes! I love Passionate Homemaking's basic homemade deodorant recipe.
Then I found Healing Heart Oils recipe for homemade deodorant and it's amazing! I decided to try her combination.
Homemade Deodorant Using doTERRA essential oils
1/2 cup baking soda
1/2 cup cornstarch
1/2 organic Nutiva coconut oil
20 drops doTERRA CPTG essential oil
I followed Healing Heart Oils suggestion and used 10 drops of Purify for it's odor eliminating power and 10 drops of Citrus Bliss because I love the clean scent!
I mix it up and store it in small Pyrex glass containers and put it on with my fingers. The deodorant literally can last 2 days! It doesn't stain clothing! And best of all, it's all natural and I'm not putting aluminum on my skin that seeps into my body daily. Less toxic load is a good thing! And it's cheap!
