Homemade deodorant (that actually works)

This deo:

• neutralises smell

• kills bacteria

• lightens skin

• moisturises

Ingredients:

• 1 tbsp beeswax

• 1 tbsp cocoa butter

• 2 tbsp shea butter

• 4 tbsp coconut oil

• 2 tbsp arrowroot powder

• 2 tbsp baking soda

• 1/2 tbsp magnesium flakes/powder

• 1/2 tbso salt (celtic or himalayan)

4-16 drops essential oils of your choice, for example:

• 10 drops rose geranium essential oil

• 3 drops patchouli essential oil

• 3 drops lemongrass essential oil

(in summer I like using lavender and mint, bcs it has a cooling effect)

Directions:

1. Melt the bees wax and then add the cocoa butter. Once that has melted, add the shea butter and coconut oil.

2. Once everything is melted, remove it from the heat.

3. In a spices mixer, grind the baking soda, salt, Mg powder and arrowroot powder. Mix the powder with the oil and put it in a ice bath while continously whipping the mixture.

4. Once the mixture is no longer hot and is starting to turn creamy, you can add the essential oils.

5. Before it completely solidifies, pour the finished product into containers. Careful, it turns solid very quickly!
