Spray Deodorant
This spray deodorant is light, refreshing, and completely non-toxic. It takes just a few minutes to make and keeps you feeling fresh all day. This makes 2 ounces.
Materials
- 3 tablespoons Everclear grain alcohol
- 1 tablespoon witch hazel
- 1 tablespoon distilled water
- 1/2 teaspoon vegetable glycerin
- 10 drops essential oils
Instructions
- Add the essential oils to the alcohol. Stir gently to combine.
- Pour the mixture into a clean 2-ounce glass spray bottle using a small funnel. Then add in the glycerin and water.
- Shake gently before each use.
Notes
- Any essential oils work.
- Because of the alcohol, this should last around a year.
- It’s not an antiperspirant so you’ll still sweat, but it should control odor effectively.
- If you prefer a longer lasting option, you can add a pinch of baking soda or a few drops of magnesium oil (though those can slightly increase irritation for sensitive skin)
- For very active days or hot weather, you might need to reapply once midday.
