Ready for a little DIY? I know, it’s long overdue. I have been looking for a natural deodorant for MONTHS now. And let me tell you, it’s been a very painful couple of months in doing so. I am allergic to SO much that I knew I needed something that was 100% natural. My search failed so many times that I finally started researching how to make my own. Now that I’ve perfected the recipe I’m here to share it with you.
