This simple two ingredient detoxing deodorant will have you odorless! It works every time and it even works if you already have an odor permeating from your pits! Not only is it super effective but it is good for you, the earth and your pocket book.
I love my body and the earth but when I went and I read the ingredients of deodorants (most of the time not knowing what they were or where or how they originated) I knew those ingredients weren't good for me or the earth. So it was trail and error trying to find something that would work and would work all day. Then I stumbled upon baking soda. Cue a choir of angels. This stuff worked like magic! It worked so good and would work all the same till it was rinsed off. The only down side was for me was it would leave my arm pits red and blotchy. Then I mixed it with another magical ingredient known for its soothing and detoxifying properties.. bentonite clay and never had red arm pits again!
What You Will Need:
Baking Soda
Bentonite Clay or Montmorillonite Clay
(optional) Essential Oil of Choice
Step One
This will be 4 parts. 1 part will be the baking soda. I used a baking soda derived from the earth vs being created synthetically. The baking soda is what is going to be the odor neutralizer of this deodorant. It is very powerful and a little goes a long way. If you would like to add an essential oil for a scent add 10 drops into the baking soda and mix around to distribute evenly through and set to the side for 10-15 minutes. This will allow the baking soda to absorb the essential oil and the moisture.

Step Two
Now that you have 1 part baking soda now it is time to add 3 parts bentonite clay. NEVER MIX WITH METAL! Mix together the clay and baking soda. They clay becomes electrically charged when hydrated and pulls out toxins.
