Homemade Deodorant

Mix about 1/4 c. baking soda and 1/4 c. cornstarch or arrowroot starch in a small bowl. Add unrefined coconut oil, not melted, about a Tablespoon at a time, mashing with a fork until all the dry ingredients have been mixed in. I find it takes 4-6 Tablespoons.
Optional: If you’d like a scent, add a few drops of your favorite essential oil at this time.
You could use this mixture as is and apply with your fingertips, or put it into an deodorant container. We just use our fingers to apply.

The above was taken from here which I found through my friend's post here. I find it perfectly fine to leave the mixture in a small container and apply with my fingers. I have been using this for about a month now and it is far superior to store bought natural deodorants and regular deodorants as well. No stink and very minimal moisture. I haven't noticed any oil staining either! Try it and let me know how it works for you!
