Commercial deodorant fill with a huge amount of chemical substances. So, I decided to stay safe away from these things and make my own deodorant. The natural deodorant will not stop you from sweating, but it will control the sweating odor.

All the measurements are in the recipe box.

Tips and suggestions for better natural deodorant

• Baking soda sometimes irritates my skin. So, I used only a very small amount of it in this recipe. That makes the natural homemade deodorant recipe suitable for any skin, even the sensitive.
• I have used 15 drops of lavender oil and 5 drops of tea tree oil in making this natural deodorant recipe.
• This natural deodorant tends to melt a little bit in hot weather. So, if you live in hot weather, keep it in a cool place or in the refrigerator.
• I recommend giving your body time to adapt to the new natural homemade deodorant. So, make the change gradually.

Although, all the ingredients I used in making this organic natural homemade deodorant are natural, but if you feel any kind of skin irritation, stop using the deodorant.
