Homemade Deodorant

Vicki and I made this homemade deodorant.  I LOVE it.  I’m not sure where the recipe came from though.

Powder deodorant:  1/2 cup  baking soda, 1/2 cup cornstarch, about 10-15 drops essential oil (we used lavender)

Add 1/2 cup softened coconut oil to make solid deodorant.   I prefer the powdered one.
