The most active supporter of all natural already doing for themselves anti-age creams, medicated shampoos and even styling tools. How about deodorant?
Want smooth skin of the armpits and effective protection from sweat? Welcome to our virtual laboratory shop, where we tested all the new and interesting kind of Home-made. Today is the turn of deodorant their hands.
Surprisingly, there are about a thousand different recipes for homemade deodorant. As components are used in products such as butter (Shea butter and cocoa butter or beeswax. I will tell you that tried it myself.
Why was a Home-made deodorant
I get this question many. Indeed, there are many pleasant deodorants labeled "natural". But they all share in the composition of the aluminum. But harm this ingredient is quite serious: from premature aging and changes in hormonal levels to risk of Alzheimer's disease and even cancer. Recently, however, deodorants rid of aluminum in the composition, but the list of chemicals is still alarming.
How to create a homemade deodorant?
1. Soda
At first I tried to replace the deodorant is very simple means. Perhaps the most simple. Ordinary baking soda. Yes, Yes, I remembered that I read somewhere about this. Now, just rubbed armpit soda. Started the testing period.
I live in my own house, so the chance intensive testing had after the first snowfall, when I went to wave a shovel and clean the tracks from snow. I very quickly became hot, I felt moisture on his back and armpits. After working in the yard and went into the bathroom. To my surprise, I did not feel any smell of sweat! Sweat was, but the odor was not. For a start, not bad!
A few days continued the experiment. You know, it was there when I was wearing synthetics. Minus was that several soda dries the skin, and would like a softer sensations armpits, so I decided to try another recipe.
2. Add cornstarch
This recipe is also very simple. It is necessary to mix equal amounts of baking soda and corn starch. Again the cost is minimal, and again quite a pleasant sensation. First of all, because armpits were dry. And is applied like a regular baby powder. However, I have read that corn starch can irritate delicate skin, because my skin is sensitive, I decided not to risk and to experiment a little more.
3. Add coconut oil
Coconut oil has antibacterial properties and has a pleasant aroma, besides, a natural product, exactly who need in home cosmetics. The deodorant recipe: equal proportions of baking soda, cornstarch, and unrefined coconut oil. Specifically: 1 / 4 Cup baking soda, 1/4 Cup cornstarch 5 teaspoons of coconut oil. First mix bulk ingredients, after - coconut oil (if not amenable, then a little Relight the stove in a water bath or in the microwave). For flavor you can add a few drops of your favorite essential oil.
The mixture becomes quite viscous and thick. And hands to apply it on the skin will not always want (for example, when it is not possible to wash hands). Therefore, a good solution - used container of deodorant-stick.
Using a spoon or a fork filled container and forming the upper surface. Wait, before you use that weight well "village" in the container and kept for a long time.
The pros and cons of homemade deodorant
So I use their deodorant for 2 months, and something to judge for themselves, not only from blogs and articles.
First the pluses:
+ No aluminum, no parabens, no harmful and unfamiliar substances no longer on my body. Special attention should like to draw pregnant and lactating women, for them especially important to have on the skin safe products. Doctors even recommend the pregnancy to opt out of such funds as hair dyes, deodorants with aluminum, lipsticks. And lactating know how often the baby turns his in the armpit of the mother, " now kids any risk of contact with toxic chemicals.
+ From homemade deodorant not sipet the skin, if applied immediately after shaving underarms.
+ Pleasant fragrance, essential oils do their good work, and coconut oil smells amazing.
It is worth mentioning cons:
Coconut oil melts at high temperatures (60-70 degrees). In our Russian territories such temperatures do not occur, however, in the open sun oil may begin to fuse slightly. So keep your home better deodorant in the refrigerator or away from the open sun. On warm skin homemade deodorant only slightly softened, it only makes it easier to apply.
- It is difficult to travel, if you will not be able to provide the correct storage mode. On time travel, I'm putting on deodorant-powder of starch and soda.
Before putting on clothes, better five minutes to wait until the deodorant will be absorbed in order to avoid stains on clothing. But I still spots were not.
I would also like to say that in the last 2 months I once used it purchase antiperspirants. It was away. Feeling terrible. The skin is already accustomed to such stress: in addition to the tingling I felt that the clothes by the end of the day again began to smell then, as before. And this, I think, the result of the action of chemicals. Perhaps the body was estranged from chemistry, and this "aggression" on the part antiperspirant provoked a more copious sweat glands.
In General, believe it or not, but homemade deodorant me until satisfied, I feel only natural ingredients, and it is very inspiring!
Bonus: another recipe for homemade deodorant
This recipe tasted my friend from the USA, and after the success was entirely on him.
3 tablespoons Shea butter
3 tablespoons baking soda
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons cocoa butter
2 drops of vitamin E oil (vitamin e granules, it is necessary to take two pieces and punctures the shell to pour oil)

Mix all ingredients except oils. Then add oil and mix again. To get all of them to melt, just to warm up for 30 seconds in the microwave. Placed in a container and put in refrigerator. To use this cream deodorant is very easy: take a small amount the size of a pea and RUB into the skin of the armpits. If the resulting substance a few for you hardish and badly rubbed into the skin, you can add the next production a little bit of glycerin, this will make it easier to glide over the skin. Store homemade deodorant 2-3 month.
