Pina colada Deodorant

2 Tb. coconut oil
1 Tb. baking soda
3 Tb. arrowroot powder
2 drops pineapple fragrance oil
3 drops coconut essential oil

Just mix it all together and put into a container. If you want easier mixing, melt the coconut oil first and then let harden before using.

My little secret: the top of my deodorant did not look this good at first. So, I melted it down with a hairdryer for a few seconds, then smoothed it with a knife.

Troubleshooting:

• Coconut oil melts at very low temps, so if you live in a hot climate, you might want to store this in the fridge. Or add a bit of beeswax to hold it together.
• Baking soda can irritate some people’s skin. If you want more odor-fighting, increase the amount of baking soda. For a gentler deodorant, decrease the baking soda, or leave it out alltogether.
• Don’t like coconut lime? Use a different essential oil like tea tree or lavender.

Effective deodorant seems to be a very personal thing, so change the ratio of baking soda and arrowroot powder until you find what works for you!
