Natural Deodorant for Plastic Free Living!
Oh yes, this is just brilliant because it's cheap, there's no plastic involved and it's fun too! I love the way you can choose exactly how your homemade deodorant will smell and it is so effective at keeping you smelling fresh and clean. I use this stuff and it is great.
This is how to make your very own Natural Deodorant.
1/ Clean out a jar, one that is big enough to get your hand into and out of, as you will be spreading the deodorant on to your underarms, with your finger tips.
2/ Blend together the following in your jar:
1/3 cup of Coconut Oil (I use deodorised oil, as I really cannot stand the smell of coconut!)
1/4 cup of Arrowroot Powder
1 Tablespoon of Bicarbonate of Soda
5 drops of your chosen Essential Oil, good suggestions are Tea Tree Oil, Lavender, Grapefruit, Orange, Rosemary or Clove.
Yup, that's it! That is all you have to do. Mine lasts for ages and ages. So although the initial outlay on the ingredients might seem a lot, it really is a very economical and eco-friendly way to keep your armpits fresh!
