Default Deodorant?

Any crunchy mamas make their own? If so, what recipe do you use?

If not, what brand do you use?

Kiss My Face Liquid Rock Deodorant works for me... it's the most "natural" I've been able to go, that's still effective. Would love to diy something up though.

I wash mine with baking soda every day and it works great for me!

I also use baking soda as a deoderant. I pick some up with a wet finger and rub it under my armpits and it works a treat!

Aw! Don't feel bad, P. I have a white, skinny-skinny-skinny friend that has lots of sweat and she thinks it smells. I've never noticed, honestly. I wouldn't be surprised if race had soemthing to do with it.

I used to be a lot sweatier/smellier too. I just started backing off the deodorant and *that* made a difference! My body isn't so depedent on it. But it's winter. LOL! Not the middle of the summer. So we'll see how it goes.

I've used toms of maine for years and after my 3rd, I just cant do it anymore. I had to start using secret. I also was stinking like a man. (although my hubby also doesn't stink and hardly ever uses deoderant) I am hoping to get off the secret might try the baking soda. Does it itch?

I bought some Crystal Essence on a recommendation of a friend. We'll see how it works.

The recipes to make your own look SO easy! And I have all the ingredients. I'm still tempted. Haha.

Thanks Jessy! I didn't remember ever talking about here before. Maybe because this thread was when I had just started and was about to pop Grace out! LOL! A little preoccupied. AND before my even remotely close to being crunchy life!
