Make Your Own DIY Natural Deodorant

Commercial body care products like deodorant can sometimes contain toxic ingredients. Natural deodorant provides a form of body odour coverage without any of the toxic chemicals.Plus it doesn’t block sweat pores, unlike anti-perspirants.This DIY deodorant recipe has baking soda as one of the ingredients, which can cause irritation in some people when used on sensitive areas such as the underarms.You can therefore omit it from the recipe if you have sensitive skin.When selecting the essential oils to use as a fragrance in this recipe, please be mindful of the photo-sensitive essential oils such as the citrus ones.This recipe is for a 30ml deodorant container and has a 3% dilution of essential oils.
