Ingredients Needed

Choose high-quality ingredients to boost the effectiveness and safety of your DIY beauty products.

  • Cream Base: This foundation for DIY creams and lotions is free of additives such as oils, extracts, colors, or fragrances. Its neutral composition gives you the freedom to customize it with your chosen ingredients, allowing you to craft a tailored cream or lotion that meets your specific preferences.
  • Musk Cube
  • 2 Essential Oils: Tea Tree and Lemon, or others that you prefer and suit your skin type. If you have sensitive skin, don’t use lemon essential oil. You can replace it with chamomile essential oil for example.
  • Fragrance Oil: Peach or other
  • Natural Aloe Vera Gel

Tools Needed

  • Scale to weigh quantities
  • Bowl
  • Extra fine grater
  • Wooden popsicle
  • Glass container or jar to store the DIY Deodorant with Cream Base

Prior to use, ensure that both your utensils and containers are properly cleaned and disinfected. Wash them with warm soapy water, dry with a tissue, and then sanitize by spraying with 70% medical alcohol. Wipe them clean and let them air dry before use.

Steps: DIY Deodorant with Cream Base

1- Start by putting 100 grams (3.52 oz) of the cream base into a bowl.

2- With the extra fine grater, grate the musk cube to obtain 2 grams (0.070 oz) of musk powder.

3- Add the musk powder over the cream base.

Note: The powdery musk in the cream will melt from body heat when you rub it onto your armpits. It is the musk that will fight the odor and that will make your DIY Deodorant with Cream Base last up to 48 hours.

4- With a wooden popsicle, mix thoroughly.

5- Add 5 drops each of your preferred fragrance oil and 2 essential oils that suit your skin type. In this recipe, I’m using peach fragrance oil, along with tea tree and lemon essential oils. If you have sensitive skin, you can substitute lemon essential oil with chamomile or green tea essential oil.

How To Use: DIY Deodorant with Cream Base

Let’s explore how to use this wonderful DIY Deodorant with Cream Base to experience all-day freshness and confidence:

Step 1: Preparation
Before applying the deodorant, ensure that your underarms are clean and dry. A quick wash with soap and water followed by thorough drying will do the trick.

Step 2: Scoop a Small Amount
Using your fingers or a clean, small spatula, scoop a pea-sized amount of the DIY deodorant from the jar. Remember, a little goes a long way, so there’s no need to over-apply.

Step 3: Warm It Up
Gently rub the deodorant between your fingers to warm it up. This helps soften the cream and allows for smooth and even application.

Step 4: Apply to Underarms
Now, apply the cream to your underarms. Massage it in using circular motions until it’s evenly distributed on the skin.

Step 5: Allow Absorption
Give the deodorant a few moments to absorb into your skin before getting dressed. This allows the natural ingredients to work their magic and keep you feeling fresh throughout the day.

Step 6: Reapply as Needed
For optimal results, you may choose to reapply the deodorant during the day, especially if you’re engaging in physical activities or experiencing particularly warm weather. However, this DIY deodorant is designed to provide long-lasting freshness.

Remember, everyone’s skin is unique, and it may take some time for your body to adjust to this natural deodorant. If you experience any sensitivity or irritation, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist.
