Absolutely The BEST Homemade Deodorant EVER!!

For months now I've contemplated if I should share this awesome homemade deodorant recipe with you. But I cannot be selfish and keep this amazing recipe all to my self. It truly is the best that I have made and it works absolutely wonderful.   I have had friends try it out and they now come back for more. That's a good sign that it works. I must tell you though, if you are use to using a antiperspirant your body will go through a detox for about a week. When I first started using this I had to carry it around with me in my purse. I had to apply it every two - four hours. Talk about smelling bad, but right around the sixth day, I only had to apply it once. Since then, I smell AWESOME :) However, I do sweat now and on a hot day my under arms are a bit wet but I still smell good. After much trial and error I finally came up with the great recipe. I hope you try it out for yourself and let me know what you think.

 

Ingredients:

1/4 Cup Coconut Oil 

1/4 Cup Mango Butter

1/4 Cup Beeswax

1/2 Tsp. Vitamin E Oil

1/4 Cup + 1 1/2 Tbs. Arrowroot Powder 

20 + Drops Essential Oils (My favorite blends are: 10 drops of lime, 5 drops of tea tree, 5 drops lemongrass) this is an awesome combo :)

Directions: 

Melt the coconut oil, mango butter and beeswax in a double boiler until all ingredients are melted together. Remove from heat and add vitamin E oil & essential oils ( you can use a fragrance instead if you prefer. I love using essential oils). Mix together, then add the arrowroot powder very slowly. Once blended together pour into your deodorant container. It will take about a hour or so for it to completely cool. You could also place it in the fridge for it to set up faster.
