I would like to make my own deodorant, I need a very mild one because my sweat is usually pretty much odorless and I want to stay away from commercial products which often contain Aluminum. I read recipes that would combine - Baking Soda - Corn Starch - Tea Tree - Coconut oil (I would replace this with squalane or emu) Then maybe I would like to add an essential oil or fragrance oil to this mix. My question is: is it ok (healthy) to put a mix like this on the skin and could it be effective? Many thanks in advance for any opinion!  *************************************************** Life is too short to remove USB safely! | ||

Hi Rossana, I have used several natural products that contained those ingredients - they worked ok and didn't cause me any irritation. If anything you may find them a little expensive. I switched to natural deodorants to avoid the aluminum and because antiperspirants aggravate my breakout prone skin. After trying everything I had great success with Crystal body deodorant, and some success with Lavilin cream. The crystal "salt rock" runs about $7 - and I'm still using the same one for just over 2 years now. Good luck, KesThis message has been edited. Last edited by: SkinBiologyWebmaster, | ||||

It should be healthy! You could add some sugar and water, stir, then bake at 350 F for about 10 minutes and get cornbread. | |||

what about for people that have problems with odor? I bought the rock crystals but it fails after couple of hours. then i tried a couple more natural deodorant and they also fail. arm and hammer works best, but I have to keep re-applying after every couple of hours. Although after a workout, it will also fail. I'm guessing aluminum containing deodorant works better at fighting odor? Any recommendations on any natural works that works just as well as the prescription deodorant? | ||||

KimLei, maybe you are overwashing and using aggressive soaps, which strip away your acidic mantle and thus create a favorable environment for bacteria? I read the genetics also matters a lot in determining what kind of bacteria are prevalent on our skin so it might not be a solution.. But you could measure the ph of your skin with ph strips. If it is too alkaline (>5.5) then I think you may try with neutral soaps and less washing so that your skin can be naturally acidic and naturally create a hostile environment for bacteria *************************************************** Life is too short to remove USB safely! | |||
