DIY ALL-Natural Deodorant with ONE ingredient! Simple!

So, what’s the easiest DIY ALL-Natural Deodorant of all times?

With just ONE ingredient?

It’s pretty Simple!

I like simple for any and all of my DIY products!

One that has only ONE, single ingredient is even better!!

And effective, too!

This combination is an absolute score for me.

I have found several DIY (Do-it-Yourself) recipes online. None have worked as effectively as this one. And, they’ve usually had more than one ingredient, took a lot of steps with, blend this and melt that, and then find an empty container and spoon it in.

Yada, yada.

Whew, no offense to my friends who do this, but for me, it’s just too much, and then the deodorants have just not worked.

They left me big time stinky!

I am looking for safe, effective and SUPER EASY!

This question comes up often when the conversation of removing toxins from your personal care line comes up.

Each step is important, yet this one is where many people compromise.

I confess, that I have, too.

After all, who wants to STINK?

In my quest to find the perfect deodorant, I have used ones that have resembled what’s been traditionally use, but guess what!

I still STUNK!

I’ve used the most recent rave–deodorant crystals– 2 different kinds, and they worked great!

But, it’s the “however’ that gnawed at the back of my mind.

They have Alum.

For a while, I lived in denial that Alum could add to my toxic burden, because using it allowed me to NOT STINK, and isn’t that what we all strive for?

But, deodorant crystals are applied wet and to a very vulnerable area of the body …

YOUR armpits!

Lymph nodes live there! Along with fat, whether you are thin or wide, you have fat there. Just saying! Toxins LOVE to live in your fat cells! I mean REALLY like it. So much so, it’s a booger to detox them, but there are ways!

And, our lymph nodes are kind of important to our immune system. Do they need a heavy metal applied daily?

Even though the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approves its use in these products, I do not trust them to have my best health high on their priority list. Let’s face it, when you almost die from an FDA-approved pharmaceutical injection, would you trust them?

Aluminum ions are still metallic, and I want to reduce my metal load as much as possible.

In my quest to find something with safe ingredients, a friend said she only used coconut oil. I’d already planned to bring coconut oil with me to Swaziland, so decided to give it a try.

Note to self: Try out suggestions before you travel abroad where very little natural deodorants are sold at the store.

And, to all who lived with me, or was in my presence, especially in a crowded vehicle, forgive me!

I know, I smelled AWFUL. But, I could not find a safer option for this chemically sensitive person to use.

Which is one reason I took a bath, morning and night! A real luxury, I know!

Ok, I’ve digressed down the “forgive me” path.

So, what do I use to keep from stinking in the South Louisiana humid climate?

I have 2 options that I’ve found completely safe and effective… YES, I used those words in the same sentence… for me!

So,  what’s the  SUPER easy DIY ALL-Natural Deodorant with ONE ingredient?

It’s as SIMPLE as Lavender!

Most recently, I have switched to Lavender essential oil.

Not because Healthy Home Company’s Deodorant stopped working, but because I had a hard time believing my oily friends who claimed they used ONLY Lavender. And, the Healthy Home Company is not longer around.

My reply was, “Did you mix is with baking soda? Coconut oil?” Or, other ingredients that I saw in DIY recipes?

And, they said, “No, I apply just a drop of Lavender oil on my armpits.”

I sat on my, “huh” for a while.

I then decided to give it a try.

I like to live as minimalist as possible, though it’s hard at times. Having one product for multiple uses really appeals to me.

And, lavender goes with me every where I go. I use it to soothe sunburns–and it is now summer. I use it to feel balanced with my emotions, or if my nerves get on edge, or if I’ve eaten foods that enhance candida, Lavender is my go-to oil. For just about anything~

So, I ventured out into the great unknown, and lo and behold,

LAVENDER WORKS! 

ALL DAY LONG!

Even when I exercise in the heat of the deep south.

And, it does so much more at the same time….

Lavender’s uses go beyond what I can say here,but if you know anything about Swiss Army Knives, Lavender holds the coveted title:

The Swiss Army Knife of Essential Oils.

When in doubt, use lavender for ANY issue that comes up.

Yes, ANY!

But, let me say this loud and clear:

I DO NOT recommend Lavender from ANY other company. Prior to experiencing Young Living’s Lavender, the rest “lavender essential oils” that I’d been around ALWAYS made me sick, gave me migraines, and put me to bed. I avoided Lavender at ALL COST, until Young Living’s crossed my nose. I knew immediately that this lavender was not chemically adulterated like so many on the market. I knew that it was as pure as their Seed-to-Seal Guarantee claims. Because if there was a HINT of chemical adulteration, my body would respond with negative consequences.

So, there you have it.
