pros/ con home made deodorant

Pros

1. avoiding questionable chemicals in current products
2. have fun creating products customized to your needs
3. saving money with endless batches while also reusing old containers.
Con.
1. Finding what works for you
2. might be a bit messy.



After the small success of whipping up a sweat fight and odor control stick and considering I missed a ingredient...Time to made some more deodorant.

This batch refilled two reused stick deodorant container and since I made extra I decided to experiment.


Say hello to "Deodorant bar"  The first ever batch I made was missing baking soda and I found it lack the strength of a commercial brand. Having to reapply through out the day is not my cup of cake but still strong 3 containers of the stuff lasted..5 months. Finally at my last bar I  could wait no longer i I cut the last remaining bar and re-melt and added it to this newly made batch.

 

In a sauce pan I heated a pot of water to almost boiling. Enough to melt 1 spoon full of Shea butter and my last stick to a creamy consistency.

I found some recipes on youtube from some awesome ladies  and then did my own thing with what I learned. It's so simple to find recipes and tutorials online and experiment I leave it up to you to take matters into your own hands and join the fun!!!! XOXO

I do a blog trying to help people like you braids weave relaxers do not help hair growth. for your hair you need A a satin or silk pilow case of bonnet cotton dries out ethnic hair types and it was drying mine out.
Then your need to know your hair needs constant moisture Vaseline or any petroleum products only coat hair and does not give it moisture. To keep your hair moisturized so that it stop breaking you need a deep conditioning or a protein conditioning. Look up avocado hair mask on you tube. Also look up healthy hair care for african american hair there too. It will be a repeat of what I am telling you. check my blog for more details. Keep it simple sista has long hair and great tips on what she does to keep hair long.
It will take time but I was able to get my hair healthy in 2 months. Check out vegetable glycerin spray and aloe vera gel. Also I use dr bronner castile soap it saves money and you will only need s tiny bit

I grow aloe with love

My aloe plan is growing so big it sit in the kitchen soaking in the sunlight. I have had it only a few months but its growing like a weed every day i make sure to send it positive energy and love only water with distilled water and just leave it along to do what it does best...grow.
Once it reaches its mature state I will be making hair products with its leaves. I was even adventurous enough to eat some hella gross!!!




When I first purchased this plant it was super tiny and I could wait for it to grow I snipped off a few leaves one leaf to taste and one leaf to to rub into my hair to see what would happen. I would fully support anyone who wanted to grow an aloe plan they are easy to care for and do not need much attention.

Must see video on the reason behind my new found love of DIY cosmetics

Simple put what I became shocking aware of, while trying to get my hair healthy. It all started to make me aware open my eyes and wake up to the lie I was telling myself. Things are never what they seem now that I know I want to protect not just myself but everyone who lives on this planet. Instead of blindly believing those that manufacture all the product I use daily I make them myself.
