This week my "favorite" I would like to share is a recipe for deodorant I found online this past summer. Since having my 2 children I have been a little "rough" on my deodorant (in other words, most o them don't work). I had been reading about all of the awful things in deodorant (a good summary of this is HERE). I had tried some of the deodorants that don't contain many of the most harmful ingredients and none of them worked. I don't really care if I sweat, I just didn't want to smell!
Then I came across an awesome recipe for homemade deodorant on Homestead Revival. You can find the recipe HERE. I used this recipe all summer. Yes, you still sweat (it's not an antiperspirant), but that's okay, your SUPPOSED to sweat. The important thing was that I didn't smell! I used tea tree oil and vanilla(as a scent) during the summer. Now that it is fall, almost winter I made a batch of plain. The recipe lasted me about 7 months and in the long run is not only MUCH healthier to use but is also a lot less expensive.
So there it is! My first ever favorite Friday! Do you make your own deodorant? What's your favorite recipe?
