If you've had successful DIY deodorant. Help👇🏽
I read somewhere on here a hippy crunchy mama had been using a coconut oil some type of deodorant for awhile but she felt like it was clogging her lymph nodes. I can't find an answer online if it specifically clogs lymph nodes but on the cosmetic level to clog pores it's a 4. So I've never wanted to use it for a DIY deodorant because I don't want my pores clogs, makes sense right?
I've tried a few other natural deodorants and they didn't work because my BO was crazy or I broke out from it. A crystal kind. A "primal pit paste". And one from Lush can't remember the name. Now the crystal deo didn't work on its own but if I put AVC and tea tree oil on my pits too then it worked more so but it was just a pain to put it on all separately. And I wasn't sure how to make a DIY crystal?
I ran out of deodorant this weekend so I decided I would just try this instead even though it had coconut oil in it..

I did the cornstarch instead of arrowroot, and I didn't have tea tree oil at my grandmas so I used eucalyptus, and my bentonite clay was at my house but I wasn't stressed in not having it because it didn't seem like a staple to me and I do a detox with that and ACV occasionally... now on this DIY deo I didn't have odor like I have from the other natural deodorants or even most chemical deodorants BUT my pits have a very weird feeling I'm not sure how to explain it but I'm guessing it's because the coconut oil IS clogging my pores.
Do you have a DIY deodorant without coconut oil that's been successful? 😫
