DIY: Natural body deodorant with coconut and lavender

Body odour is caused by bad smells produced by bacteria that feed on sweat. Due to its antibacterial property, coconut oil inhibits bacterial overgrowth. In addition, coconut oil keeps the skin moisturized. This natural deodorant is safe for even the most sensitive skin.

Coconut oil has many wonderful uses. But did you know that it can be used as a deodorant? If you want to replace chemical deodorants with a natural product, coconut oil is an excellent choice.

Body odour is caused by bad smells produced by bacteria that feed on sweat. Due to its antibacterial property, coconut oil inhibits bacterial overgrowth. In addition, coconut oil keeps the skin moisturized. This natural deodorant is safe for even the most sensitive skin.

The simplest way to use coconut oil as a deodorant is to apply it directly to the armpits. Take a teaspoon of solidified coconut oil and apply it evenly on the area. The heat in the armpits will melt the coconut oil. To avoid stains on your clothes, allow the coconut oil to be fully absorbed by the skin before getting dressed.

Because of its fragrance, lavender essential oil is added to homemade deodorants. In addition, lavender soothes the skin and reduces irritation. It is also known for its antibacterial property.

Easy and quick recipe, ideal for sensitive skin

For the homemade deodorant recipe, you will need:

  • one cup of coconut oil
  • 30 g. shea butter
  • 15 g. beeswax
  • one tablespoon of vitamin E
  • 40 drops of lavender essential oil

Execution

Melt and mix the beeswax, shea butter and coconut oil in a small saucepan. Allow the mixture to cool. Add the vitamin E and lavender essential oil and mix well. Apply a small amount of the mixture to the armpits.
