DEODERANT!(some of us are afraid to stink...)

So, this is not food.

This is deoderant. Don't eat it, dummie.

1/4 cup baking soda
1/4 cup cornstarch
10+ drops tea tree oil
2+ TBSP shortening

1. Put baking soda and cornstarch (see Warnings) in a bowl with tea tree oil. The deodorant in this example was made with 20 drops due to an enthusiasm for tea tree oil. Lavender oil will work as well.

2. Stir enough shortening in until it's a consistency you like.

3. Smash into empty deodorant container. It will be a bit sturdier once it sets a day or so.

Please se this link for more information and concerns that you might have about it, they got lots of cool stuff there.

Warnings:
If you have especially sensitive skin, increase the amount of cornstarch to 6T and decrease the baking soda to 2T.

Be sure to store in a cool place. LouAna coconut oil starts to melt at 76 degrees. There are coconut oils you can purchase that won't melt until it's 92 degrees.
