Guest guest Posted May 23, 2001 Report Share Posted May 23, 2001 Dear Herbalists, Here is the Deodorant that I make which handles the Florida Heat extremely well, SAGE DEODORANT 1 ounce of sage tincture 1 ounce of witch hazel extract 10 - 20 drops of essential oil blend - Use sage, coriander or chamomile to fight bacteria and add another one that has the fragrance you like (I use 10 drops of sage essential oil and 10 drops of peppermint oil so I can smell like a peppermint drop) 5 - 10 drops of grapefruit seed extract (a natural anti bacterial agent used here as a preservative i. e GSE by Nutribiotic) I do not necessarily add the grapefruit seed extract as it is expensive and my deodorant went thru a year of Florida weather with no-one complaining WITHOUT USING IT . My present batch, however, has it in.... when you DO add the GSE add it into the sage alcoholic tincture before you put the oils in otherwise the GSE tends to separate the oils. This needs to be shaken before you use it. i keep mine in a $1 squeezy bottle that I can spray that I bought from Wal Mart. I would love to put it into an old fashioned ceramic atomizer..anyone got one they don't want?,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Love Penny Deodorant Bar 1-1/2 oz beeswax 1/2 oz cocoa butter 1 oz coconut oil 10 drops rosewood essential oil 4 drops cypress essential oil 4 drops spanish sage essential oil 4 drops coriander essential oil Melt beeswax and cocoa butter. Remove from heat and add coconut oil. Stir until melted. Allow to cool but mixture should still be warm and pourable. Add essential oils and pour into deodorant container.
