Making a deodorant base is very easy. Just adjust the base ingredients to make a larger batch.
8 oz. sweet almond oil
2 oz. besswax
2 tsp. wheat germ oil or Vit. E
1 tsp. bergamot e.o.
15 drops tea tree e.o.
30 drops geranium e.o.
1 tsp. lavender e.o.
1 oz. white clay
1 oz. baking soda
Here is another recipe:
Heat 1/2 cup coconut oil and 1 1/2 Tbsp. bees wax until melted. Add 1/4 cup baking soda and stir constantly as it cools. (I put it in the soap making blender.) When mixture begins to thicken, add 12 drops essential oil.
Some suggestions are rosemary, white sage, lavender, lemon or thyme. I added a few drops of Bay Rum fragrance oil and a few drops of lavender. Pour into twist-up deodorant container and set upright until solid. This makes a little more than a large deodorant container.
