Natural deodorant is all the rage right now - Who wants to put chemicals directly on your skin and that close to you lymphatic system? But they're so expensive - That's why I've created three simple recipes for natural deodorant that you can make at home for as little as $1 a package. Amazing right?
Today I'm showing you how to make a Push-Up Deodorant, a Pit Paste and a delicious Body Spray.
Ingredients for Push-Up Deodorant (Makes 2 x 2-ounce tubes):
½ cup coconut oil // [ Ссылка ]
½ cup shea butter // [ Ссылка ]
4 teaspoons beeswax pellets // [ Ссылка ]
2 Tablespoons zinc oxide // [ Ссылка ]
20 drops grapefruit essential oil // [ Ссылка ]
You will need to buy 2-ounce tubes for this
Directions for Push-Up Deodorant:
1) Melt oils and butters in a double boiler
2) Remove from heat and whisk in zinc oxide
3) Add the essential oil
4) Pour into molds
5) Allow it to set for 3 – 4 hours
Ingredient benefits:
Coconut oil moisturizing
Shea butter, hydrating and nourishing
Zinc Oxide will help you to stay dry and helps with odor
Grapefruit essential oil is antibacterial.
Ingredients for Pit Paste:
¼ Cup Tapioca Starch // [ Ссылка ]
¼ Cup Baking Soda // [ Ссылка ]
¼ Cup coconut oil // [ Ссылка ]
1 teaspoon zinc oxide // [ Ссылка ]
40 drops of your favorite essential oil
Directions for Pit Paste:
Mash ingredients together in a bowl. (Note that when it’s warm outside the coconut oil will be liquid enough to mash without heating first. In the colder months, you may have to heat it by placing in a cup and then standing the cup in very hot water for 5 minutes.)
Simply place all the ingredients in a bowl and mash together with a fork. Transfer to a jar, and chill in the fridge.
In very warm weather it’s best to keep it in the fridge. In cooler weather, you can keep it out.
Ingredient benefits:
Tapioca Starch and baking soda help keep you dry
Coconut oil will protect and nourish your skin
Zinc Oxide deals with wetness and odor
(Since we are using essential oils, I prefer you use an opaque sprayer because light degrades the oils). I found mine (cute metal sprayers) at The Container Store.
Ingredients for Body Spray:
2 ounces distilled water
1 ounce Witch Hazel // [ Ссылка ]
1 ounce aloe vera juice // [ Ссылка ]
40 drops of your favorite essential oil
4-ounce sprayer bottle // [ Ссылка ]
Directions for the Body Spray:
Simply mix all the ingredients and transfer to bottle!
Ingredient Benefits:
The witch hazel is an astringent, so helps to evaporate sweat on contact. The aloe vera juice is moisturizing. The essential oils (if you choose lavender, tea tree, peppermint, grapefruit, lemon are anti-bacterial).
