I got this natural deodorant recipe from the helpful book Organized Simplicity by Tsh from Simple Mom and have been making it since last year. I’ve told some friends about it so I thought I should go ahead and give you the recipe to try out for yourselves if you’re interested.

I add lemon essential oil to mine and really like the combination of the coconut oil and lemon together. Just pick whatever essential oil you like! A batch lasts a long time.

Recipe:

1/4 cup baking soda
1/4 cup cornstarch
4 to 6 tbsp. coconut oil
Essential oil (only if you want it to have a fragrance)
And then any little jar or container you like, some people use an old deodorant one

And check out the book for lots of other great tips and more recipes.


Have a great week!
