Homemade deodorant: the recipe for sensitive skin

Zero waste, 100% natural and delicately scented, this deodorant is particularly suitable for the most delicate armpits.

The deodorants are in your armpits! Not that you don’t like to smell good, though. The problem is, no deodorant is right for your sensitive skin. Not only are you allergic, but you are also wary of the components of these products.

Homemade deodorant: the ingredients

15 g of shea + 20 g of coconut oil

20g cornstarch + 15g baking soda

5 drops of tea tree essential oil

The deodorant recipe

  1. MELT shea butter and coconut oil in a bowl over a bain-marie.
  2. OUT OF FIRE, add the rest of the ingredients to the bowl and mix with a wooden spoon.
  3. Pour out in your glass jar then place it in the refrigerator for about 1 hour so that the mixture freezes.

Top Health advice

A 50ml jar lasts about 3 months. The essential oil of tea tree has antibacterial and purifying properties. If you don’t like the smell, you can replace it with palmorosa or peppermint essential oil.
