RE: Ditch the Toxic deodorant and MAKE YOUR OWN! ♥ Here's how:

in #homeremedies7 years ago

This sounds like fun!

My middle child loves slathering on lotions and deodorants - maybe I’ll have her mix her own for a home school project.

Your tutorials are very easy to follow, have you posted in making lotion or sunscreen before?

Thanks so much!
Yes, I recently did one on sunscreen: link
You can check that out.
I am going to do one on lotion here soon, since I have a neighbor who requested some homemade lotion, and apparently all her family love it too, so I have a lot of jars to make, haha!

Ive read before that its "very important" to have separate heating/kitchen/cooking utensils when you make your lotions and such. Do you have dedicated materials?

And if you had to, put some color in that sunscreen of yours. A little tint of sorts, what would you add?

Lots of people DO have dedicated utensils for these things. I don't, though. Then again, all my ingredients are safe, and if a trace of it ends up in the food, its no big deal. As long as I wipe the things down before washing, they come out squeaky clean. :)

That is an excellent question! I do not know, since I have never tinted any of my products! I would probably just do a google search and find out what organic tints people use. Something mineral based, probably.

LOL! I was more worried about getting beans in my deodorant 😂😂😂.

Being a part of steemitmamas gives me more project ideas!

Bah ha ha! I get it, no one wants beany deodorant, haha!
