I just made this today and omg this really works! I switched 2 years ago to natural deodorants and always end up w/ a rash under my arms. I was more concerned that it wouldn’t work but it really does! 💯
I stopped needing deodorant/antiperspirant a long time ago. I realized that I had body odor whenever I ate yeast bread products or drank soda pop. My fix was to stop eating and drinking them. It worked! Other members of my family won't make the change so thank you for this diy recipe.
Can I just say that I absolutely love that your videos are short and to the point! Of course I could watching you forever but the part of getting the task accomplished is what busy moms need☺️
Just wanted to let you know I tried this recipe and have been using this deodorant for 2 weeks and live in hot Arizona where it's been 100 degrees out and it works! Occasionally I reapply it once during the day if needed but I couldn't be happier. Thank you!!
Love this and can't wait to try it! But please be careful with citrus oils!! They are photosensitive oils and can cause SEVERE sunburn if you're in the sun after using on the skin.
I used to use baking soda but it irritated my skin, until I discovered the secret. I put lotion in my hand and sprinkle baking soda in it. Then, mix it together. I've never had any more problems with irritation or odor.
So glad to get this recipe. We are baking soda sensitive and I had to quit making the deodorant we were using. I have all these ingredients, so guess what I will be doing tomorrow. :)
Hey Dear, Thanks for this Amazing video, I've been using this deodorant for 3 years, please trust Me, it works!! I was wondering if You should keep extra deodorant in the fridge?
I'm so glad I just found your channel and blog! Where can I buy a whole box set of oils like in the video? I'm very interested in doing everything essential oils. Thanks again 😊
I know this was 3 years ago but I hope you see this message 🤞🏾 So I’ve just started making natural home products. I made deodorant with and without baking soda but the problem is that it does not work well in the summer for me- sweating, the humidity, etc the deodorant isn’t working as well as I hoped. Do you have any recipes for a stronger deodorant to help people who live in hotter climates?
Would it be good to add some magnesium oil in this? If so would I add equal amount of Arrowroot powder so it doesn't change the viscosity of it? Also does this recipe glide on like regular deodorant or is it harder or softer? Thanks bunches! ❤ p.s. does the deodorant work better with or with out the baking soda?
Do you experience a cooling sensation under your arms using essential oils? I've used as little as 5 drops and still feel that cooling sensation. I'm trying to find an essential oil that doesn't do that.
Mango butter won't clog your pores (it's non-comedogenic). Coconut oil helps ward off bacteria, and mango butter comes in and adds yummy vitamins and fatty acids for your under arms to enjoy. Coconut oil + mango butter is a powerhouse moisturizing duo. They carry antibacterial properties that effectively zap underarm odor.
Okay okay, are you related to the mama from Our Farmhouse On Boon? You guys favor each other in both your facial features and your voices and the way you talk. If not, I'm mind blown. LOL
I know this is extremely old buuuut. I have arrowroot and zinc oxide, would I replace the arrowroot with the zinc or would I cut the arrowroot in half and replace the other half with zinc?
"I did about 10 drops of the lemon and lavender and 5 drops of the rosemary" me counting st least 18 drops of the lavender 😂. I bet it smells amazing I'll have to try that blend
I've been making the one with baking soda and I used essential oils in it and it would sting my underarms. I took out the oils and it did well. I found that shaving my underarms that I would get a reaction. So, after seeing several videos I'm sure it's the baking soda. What about the cornstarch? I use that too! But I do use coconut oil. I have seen other videos when people used beeswax. I have it also. But no mango butter. I will order some but I'm going to try the shea until I get it in the mail.
@@ouroilyhouse I made this and I still stink. Literally. I sweat and stink too. Should I put cornstarch in or add more arrowroot? The recipe that I used with baking soda works but it stings my underarms.
@@wlsweat1 The issue with baking soda is it is very alkaline. I have heard/read one person who recognized this as the issue with baking soda. Magnesium, I believe is even more alkaline. So I guess trying to balance the ph of the deodorant. What I found really worked for me was Schmidt Activated Charcoal and Magnesium deodorant. The issue is that it just went up at Target from $6.99 to over $10. That is unacceptable! There is another Magnesium deodorant that was recommended. Magnesium oil does work for odor but your arm will sting after you shave. Also, depending on your Magnesium level, this can sting your arm pretty dramatically until your levels rise.
If I want to reuse an old deodorant container, how do I fill the tube without it pouring through the holes. Most tubes don’t have a solid base that you can just pour the mixture directly into, so how would you adjust for that?
I think you can put some into that bit and then put it in the freezer to solidify it, pour the additional stuff into the tube and put it back in the freezer (I hope that makes sense).
Thanks for sharing this video! It's very informative! Store bought deodorants do not prevent me from being smelly. So I'm back to DIY, I currently use baking soda with coconut oil, and cornstarch. I have strong underarm odor. I would be hesitant to try a baking soda free version. What ingredient in your recipe prevents odor? The essential oils won't probably cut it for me. If this leaves me stinky, what amount of baking soda would you recommend I add to a 1 stick recipe?
curb meat intake to 10% of your total daily intake and avoid dairy; curb sugar and alcohol as much as possible; coffee could b another culprit making you stinky. once you eat a plant based diet, your odors will be gone, even your poop will have little or no smell either.
@@Lauren-vd4qeThe same could be said with a meat based diet. It’s simply not true that meat makes you stinky. I’d say processed foods and rancid seed oils contribute to body odor.

Deodorizing happens when an electrolyte-mineral interacts with the enzymatic system of the sweat. Sadly, an anhydrous formulation like this really wouldn’t act like a deodorant.

An organic solvent with those ingredients in a stable emulsion with a PH range 5 to 6 would do a brilliant job!

@@chrismarr4234 Baking soda is generally not an irritant, though individual reactions can vary. Some people may have sensitivities to triethyl citrate. I don’t believe aluminium is inherently harmful either; much of the concern comes from the 'clean beauty' movement's fear mongering. For example, kaolin is a natural clay that 'green' companies often use and chemically speaking, it's just hydrated aluminium silicate.
Thank you for your reply. I was curious about something you may know. We got rid of aluminum cookware b/c heating it adds toxins to out food. But what about using tinfoil and disposable tinfoil pans? Maybe the amount is so small it wouldn't have much of an effect?
Recipe sounds good and I'm glad more and more people make their own deodorant of natural products. However I must say I'm honestly a bit disappointed that she said she 1) buys from Amazon who is the worst treater of his employees and 2) just tosses the containers, it is not very sustainable for such a natural product.. :/ I really hope she'll change that too..
@@Victoria-zl5ok You’re speaking to me about this, when you have no clue how i live my life. I am all for sustainability, up-cycled items, recycling, and using environmentally friendly materials. I sew with donated/discarded fabric samples to make old things useful again. I have my own flock of chickens who eat kitchen scraps and organic food. I plant my own garden, and use every method I can think of to decrease pollution and my carbon footprint. We have a well system and a septic system so we aren’t contributing to waste or the other use of electricity in those areas either.

Stop being so judgmental.
LOVE your lip balm, so smooth. Now it's time to make a deodorant stick without baking soda however, can I switch the beeswax to candelilla wax?? What's the difference? The smell or something else.
Its made of paper lined with wax. www.amazon.com/2-37oz-Kraft-Paperboard-Deodorant-Tubes/dp/B07DYPH87B Im thinking that maybe the oils will have a tendency to melt (im from a tropical country) and might leak out or seep thru the paper. Or maybe i could just increase the amount of beeswax, make it harder?
Question, so I notice most people use a few drops of vitamin E like you did. Is there a reason why you only use a few drops instead of using one or two droppers worth? Like does it have a negative effect if you did use that much, not good for your skin or something of that nature? That way I will know for future recipes. Thanks Laura! Xoxo
People with blood pressure issues should be very careful with vitamin E. There is a such thing as too much topically for any body when it comes to vitamin E. The heart doesn’t like it.
@@shawannadowning7952 holy crap i had no idea!! thank you for that vital information, i'll definitely have to make note of that and look into what amount becomes unsafe for those with blood pressure or heart problems. i'm just starting a business and i have a small customer base but a lot of the people are from my grandma's neighborhood, they're older so i really have to be very careful with what i put in my skincare products (&how much) so i truly appreciate comments like yours.
I ordered everything listed, but didn't see the arrowroot. After watching video again to be sure I make right, I see you used. Will it effect my results if I don't use?
Hi Laura, Can I use this recipe in the deodorant stick for a foot balm ? it could be good to apply on the feet, in a rush, without using hands to rub it in ? Should I add more oils like avocado oil and cocoa butter to soften cracked skin on heels ?
I would love to make this for my son,as he is asking for one even though he doesn't need it 😁.Could you please share your husband's oil combination,if you don't mind?
I make my own deodorant similar to your recipe but I still have a problem with the oil coming off on my tops. They will not wash out unless you use a spot remover spray or wash a couple of times. I’ve tried a liquid deodorant spray but it doesn’t work for long on me. So I know I have to use a wax or oil recipe. Do you have any suggestions to keep the oil from getting on my tops around the armpit area?
I made a recipe that has more beeswax and doesn't contain any other kind of butter. It's made beeswax, coconut oil, and grapeseed oil. The recipe was a little too stiff so I melted it down and added a little more grapeseed oil. Doesn't rub off ony clothes or cause any oil stains.
I am new to this homemade deodorant, so I am wondering I don’t have mango butter but I do have Shea butter. Which she better be a good substitute or is there no substitute recommended for mango better?
Compared to shea butter, mango butter is lighter and less greasy, thus easily absorbed by the skin. This non-comedogenic property means it won't clog pores, making it suitable for people with acne-prone skin.

Hardcore bio-chemist here. This is a great recipe but it’s more like a perfumed balm rather than a deodorant.
Because it has no deodorizing ingredient in it.
Deodorizing happens when an electrolyte-mineral interacts with the enzymatic system of the sweat. Sadly, an anhydrous formulation like this really wouldn’t act like a deodorant.
If you want to keep it safe and aluminum/alcohol/baking soda-free, there are lots of safer salts/minerals like “zinc ricinoleate”, “zinc oxide”, “magnesium sulfate” and/or esters like triethyl-citrate, oils like ethylhexyl-palmitate to help catalyze the sweat to supress the bad odour. An organic solvent with those ingredients in a stable emulsion with a PH range 5 to 6 would do a brilliant job!

Won't filling it make it get stuck??
What can you use to substitute the coconut oil?
You can use shea butter or jojoba oil.
Did I miss how much to use ?
Hey how long will this last for? As in how much shelf life thanks for the video 😁
one year
Our Oily House awesome thank you 🙏🏾
What’s the shelf life of these diy deodorant ? 🤔
6 months to one year
will the coconut oil or vitamin e oil in it stain shirts/tops? because they're oil?
I haven't had any issues with it!
