DIY Natural Deodorant that Works!
Non-Toxic Easy DIY Pit Paste

Ingredients:
4 TBSP Baking soda
2 TBSP Bentonite Clay
4 TBSP Arrowroot powder
6 TBSP Coconut oil
Optional, 10 drops essential oil of your choice (I like sage, grapefruit or geranium)
Â
Instructions:
Melt coconut oil using double boiler method; in a bowl over a pot of simmering water.
Put all of the powders in a clean glass jar (we use wide mouth masons from Canadian Tire).
Slowly add the oil to the jar until the mixture has the consistency of smooth peanut butter.
If using an EO, add and stir.
Let cool to room temperature to firm up to use.
Notes:
Be patient with yourself as your body adjusts! Some people find that they are a little stinkier as their bodies purge the chemicals from the conventional deodorants they used before their non-toxic life.
