Deodorant

Homemade Solid Deodorant

Ingredients:

1/2 cup coconut oil
1 1/2 Tablespoons beeswax pellets
1/2 cup baking soda
1/2 cup arrowroot powder
10 drops each of Lavender, Lemon and Tea Tree Essential Oils  or whatever suits your fancy for scent if you want a scented deodorant





Directions:

Add the coconut oil, and beeswax pellets to a double boiler. Once melted, remove from heat and add baking soda, and arrowroot powder. Mix with a spoon until smooth and creamy in consistency, then add the essential oils and pour into your containers. Let stand to cool and solidify.

This works well in either a repurposed deodorant container or 4 oz mason jars.  Lasts a long time too!
