Non-toxic Deodorant Recipe



Easy Homemade Non-toxic Deodorant Recipe for Sensitive Skin
Ingredients
6 Tbsp Arrowroot Powder
3 Tbsp Shea Butter (I adapt this to other butters or none at all, it will be less creamy)
2 Tbsp Coconut Oil
1 Tbsp Baking Soda
2 Tbsp Bentonite Clay
10 drops of the essential oil of your choice

Directions

Add the shea butter and coconut oil to a stand mixer and whip it until incorporated. Turn down to low and slowly pour in the essential oil.

Meanwhile, in a separate small bowl, mix together your dry ingredients.

With your stand mixer on low, add 1/3 of your dry ingredients. Mix until incorporated and push down the sides as necessary. Then add another third of your dry ingredients and mix until incorporated. Then add the last of your dry ingredients. You should now have what appears to be little bits of dough in the bowl. Scoop the mixture out and roll into a ball like you are working with play dough. Then press into an airtight glass jar and store away from direct sunlight.

Apply a tiny pea sized amount to both underarms for all day protection.
