This Homemade Deodorant still allows you to sweat but gets rid of odor. It is aluminum and paraben free! It has an amazing smell thanks to the cocoa butter and essential oils. This works really great too! It’s been tried and tested and smells amazing!
Let’s check out the tutorial below for how to make a healthy natural deodorant.
This is super easy to make. Here is what you will need:
2 Tablespoons Organic Coconut Oil
3 Tablespoons Organic Cocoa Butter 
2 Tablespoons Baking Soda
3 Tablespoons Arrowroot Flour
10 drops Lemon Essential Oil
10 drops Rosemary Essential Oil
Directions:
In a small saucepan, add 2 cups of water and put your small jar or bowl on top. Melt the coconut oil and cocoa butter. Stir with a small spoon.
Once the oil is fully melted, remove it from the heat and stir in baking soda, arrowroot and essential oils. Make sure to remove all lumps with the back of a spoon.
Now pour into a small jar, place a lid on top and refrigerate until solid, about 30 minutes.
You can now keep the jar in your restroom or medicine cabinet. Use your finger or a tiny spoon to scoop desired amount and rub onto armpits.
That’s it! It is super simple and works really great! Do you have a favorite deodorant that you make yourself? Please share! I would love to hear about it.

Hi Ester, thanks for the recipe, looks very delicious.
Thank you!
Thanks for posting this. I have seen natural deodorant in stores before but it is always so expensive. This is a great resource.
Thanks Olivia! We really love this! It does save lots of money!
Great easy recipe and all the ingredients are natural! The skin is the biggest organ in the body and it absorbs everything. I have stopped using chemical based commercial deodorants. Natural diy deodorants are the way to go. Thanks for the recipe.
My pleasure! I am glad you like it. Yes, we should be really careful of what we put on our skin, especially our underarms! Great point Kathleen!
I have been always wanting to make my own deodorant and this seems like a simple recipe. I have all the ingredients except arrowroot flour. I need to buy that.
Thanks! If you want to make it more stiff to put into a deodorant tube, add another Tablespoon of cocoa butter. We love it! I also made one for a friend and she was really happy with it too! Please share your results! Xoxo, Ester
