Sure, you could add some tea tree to the mix, but in my opinion, that totally takes the joy out of the scent for me. On the plus side, tea tree has an added benefit of protecting your skin from yeast or fungus buildup [ source ], which is often responsible for malodorous pits. It might sound strange to add vodka to a recipe for something you’re using on your body to smell, well, less, but it’s an important ingredient. In fact, it’s an essential ingredient. Why? Put simply, oil and water do not mix, but adding a little alcohol fixes that. It disperses the essential oils and helps the scent linger in the pit area for far longer. I also think that the vodka dries things out a bit, kills bacteria (think: alcohol in hand-sanitizer) [ source ], and helps slow down the sweating in general. To make your own deodorant spray, you'll need a few essential ingredients, such as distilled water, witch hazel, and your favorite essential oils. You can use sweet orange, lavender, sandalwood, jasmine, rose, or any other essential oils that you like. Start by adding a few drops of your chosen essential oil to a spray bottle, along with witch hazel and distilled water. Then, add a small amount of baking soda and coconut oil to the mixture to help absorb odor and keep your skin moisturized.Combine all of the ingredients in a small, dark-colored bottle (to keep the essential oils from degrading). Shake the ingredients well so that they’re nicely combined. Lin, Tzu-Kai, et al. " Anti-Inflammatory and Skin Barrier Repair Effects of Topical Application of Some Plant Oils." International Journal of Molecular Sciences, vol. 19, no. 1, 2017, pp. 70., doi:10.3390/ijms19010070 Simple Soothing Anti-perspirants, a deodorant with a natural skincare ingredient. This formula is un-fragranced and alcohol free, but still promises the 48 hour protection you need to take on the day – perfect for even sensitive skin. Applying anti-perspirant is often an essential part of your morning routine. However, some deodorants can be harsh on your skin. At Simple, we believe that the ingredients you leave out are just as important as those you put in. That is why our new soothing range is free from artificial colours and is dermatologically tested to prevent irritation or dryness to your underarms. Bring the water to a gentle boil over medium heat and then add the shea butter and coconut oil to the top pot, stirring occasionally.

I tend to spritz a couple of times a day just because I love the smell. Honestly, this recipe could easily double as a homemade perfume ! Deodorant Spray FAQ Can I replace the vodka with another kind of alcohol?

Kind to people

Deodorant and antiperspirant are terms that are often used interchangeably but actually describe two unique products. Most deodorants promise odor protection lasting anywhere from 12 to 72 hours. If you’re looking for enduring coverage, keep an eye out for options in the 48- or 72-hour range. (Otherwise, just remember to reapply frequently!) Once the shea butter and coconut oil have melted, add the beeswax and stir frequently until all the ingredients are liquid. I'm calling this a “flower power” spray because the essential oil blend is a mixture of my favorite florals— jasmine and rose —with a bit of lavender and orange . It's a happy, vibrant scent.
