Deodorant

Deodorant:

Ingredients:
* 1/4 cup aluminum FREE baking soda
* 1/4 cup Arrowroot
* 2 or more Tbsp Coconut Oil (organic, virgin coconut oil)
Add the Baking Soda, Arrowroot and 10-20 drops essential oil-Mash in Coconut Oil - start with 2 Tbsp and use a bit more until your desired consistency
Press firmly into an empty deodorant container; Let sit overnight, to allow coconut oil to solidify and set again. Or I put in the freezer for a few hours. Coconut oil can be tricky with temperature. (I have never had mine liquify but during warmer months, you may want to store your deodorant in the fridge)
