      Yes, I have arrowroot starch. I was hoping you would use it. Also, if you use sodium bicarbonate, make sure it's aluminum free. But you can simply use Arrowroot starch by itself. It also works as a dry "shampoo". Since it absorbs oil.

    Arrowroot powder is actually a fantastic substitute for sodium bicarbonate, also. Sodium bicarbonate (also known as baking soda) has a much higher PH level compared to your skin, whereas arrowroot powder is much closer to your skin's PH, making you less likely to break out :)

    Itchy is more likely to come from the baking soda (many people develop skin problems from the stuff when used on the skin), the corn starch is also used as babypowder alternative. I use just cornstarch and coconutoil (1 tsp each) + 2-3 drops good essential oil if you want a scent. Mash the first to together with a fork to a paste and then add the essential oil. No preservatives, so make a new batch every month.

Works beautifully! Only thing is, it will melt if I try to travel with it in hot weather. Though I haven’t tried it yet, I think some beeswax may be added to help with the melting factor.

Going to try your demo for deodorant as I have all the ingredients to hand. I agree when you say that you shouldn't butter stuff on your body you aren't prepared to eat first. Way back in my day, Im 63 now, there was talk that deodorants that stopped the body chemically from sweating had a link to breast cancer, so I have been wary ever since.

      I do the same! after using a lemon, usually after preparing a ginger lemon tea in the morning, I use the squeezed out lemon on my armpits. It neutralizes the bacteria.
      Another similar alternative is apple cider vinegar. It just comes on a bit strong at the start and is not as pleaseantly smelling (which is not the point of applying lemon juice).
      Or just slice a thin lemon slice and rub it.

    I make my own deodorant like this too only I don't need the starch (I don't sweat like most people though) however, I add powdered magnesium to help control the skin bacteria so I can use much less baking soda on my skin because of sensitivity. I also make our tooth paste with coconut fat and baking soda. When we brush our teeth, we can add a drop of peppermint or clove oil. I've not had any need for dental work since switching to this homemade tooth paste & my children have never had a cavity in their lives! They're both adults now 🥰 White coconut oil naturally kills bad bacteria that cause odor and can damage gums or teeth while leaving a protective layer in the mouth.

  • @leonitasmaximus4004
    @leonitasmaximus4004 Год назад

    I started your video... ran upstairs... made some deodorant and came back down to finish the video. Great video.
    Couple of things I would recommend to those making it.... You are balancing the oil with the cornstarch and baking soda. You don't want greasy/oily and you don't want dry crumbly.
    The baking soda is going to act as a neutralizer of the PH and acidity in your pits. This will help with keeping the bacteria at bay that cause odor. The baking soda and the corn starch will absorb moisture helping keep you "dry". They can absorb
    Choose essential oils that are pure and if possible get those that are cold pressed and not extracted by chemicals like methanol and ethanol. A lot of essential oils on the market are fake so make sure you are getting pure essential oil and not a scent added to a generic oil.
    If using essential oils then you should try to chose oils that are naturally beneficial to being anti-bacterial and oils that are not "Hot". He used lime which is a citrus oil so if you have sensitive skin you may react to that oil as it is a "Hot" oil just like peppermint and many others. You can still use them but in small amounts and if you have sensitive skin you may not be able to.
    Some oils that are naturally antibacterial would be things like lemongrass, geranium, lavender, tea tree (hot), lemon (hot) and a bunch more but these are the common ones for the most part.
    Other oils you can blend in would be grapeseed oil, avocado oil, argan oil. These are great for the skin and they help as a "carrier" for the essential oils and will help the oils blend into your deodorant and mix better. You want to add these slowly and mix in well. You don't want your deodorant to be to oily.
    You can also add butters like shea butter or cocoa butter but you want to add small amounts as they are very greasy but are great additives.
    The other additive some folks will use is cream of tartar that you can buy in the spice aisle. It is a PH balancer and is alkaline. It is also anti-bacterial so a little of this added into your cornstarch, baking soda mix can make a difference.
    All of this is completely natural and if you want you can always buy empty deodorant containers on Amazon or online and you can put it in those if you don't want to use your hands like a cream.

    Made this and it worked well for the first couple of days. Since then, I put it on after my shower but around 6-8 hours later I can notice B.O. I've not been doing anything particularly arduous and it's not been that warm where I live. It's also been itching a bit when I put it on (that subsides later) and I think it's staining some shirts (and I've been waiting at least 20 minutes to put on a shirt), which I'm worried because, since it's not working so well, I've been adding a bit more of the deodorant than during the first days (about two-peas worth, now). Been using it for a couple of weeks and want to continue, but may need to refine the recipe. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    Best deodorant for armpits is just 60-70% alcohol. Should not be denatured but may contain d-limonene and other fragnances. I use this since the 2019 pandemic. It also dissolves the already generated smells. I would never put starch anywhere on my body and it's better to use acidic instead of caustic substances on skin.
    I also added just some table salt and citric acid to increase bactericidal effect. Not too much salt because it crystallizes, smaller amount works really great. Works for 24 hours when not swating much and less when sweating heavily, in which case just reapply. Lately, I have experimented with adding some hydrogen peroxide, again not too much.
