I had a
number of natural deodorants that worked well for me for years. But all of a
sudden, those deodorants stopped working. My pits starting smelling funky. Like funky stank mixed with deodorant smell. Yuck. The cause? My best guess was combination of
hormones and stress. My diet was the same. So out of desperation, I created this deodorant.
Anywho, I’m looking for testers. I would love to hear from
vloggers and bloggers, but it’s not a requirement. I just want feedback about
how it works for other people. Samples are limited. If you’d like one, email me at nhabtreasurehunt@gmail.com and please include your mailing address. I'd like to be able to ship internationally, but if costs are prohibitive I may not be able to. Shoot me your address and I'll check it out. Once
the tester samples are gone, they’re gone. Samples will likely not be available until the 2nd week of May because I'm waiting on an essential oil delivery. Depending on feedback, I may open an
etsy shop or take individual orders via email and just send people Paypal
invoices.The only thing I ask in return is feedback after you've used the products for awhile. You can send me a quick email and let me know what you think :)
I’ve considered adding some shea butter to firm up the
liquid-y-ness that occurs in hot weather, but Andrea over at Shoudra Stargleam
says not to mess with a good thing. What are your thoughts? I may develop some
other scents depending on interest. I know citrus scents are not everyone’s
jam. Requests are welcome, but the efficacy of the deodorant is also influenced
by the action of the essential oils so not every scent may work as well as the
next one. Also, keep in mind, everyone’s body chemistry is different so what
works for me may not work for you. Oh, and this is a natural deodorant, not an
antiperspirant. You’re still going to sweat, but hopefully you won’t stink.
I don't have pictures available at this time but the current formulation is a paste;
so you’ve got to massage those armpits. I’ve heard massaging your pits helps with lymphatic drainage and may contribute to breast health. Why not
help stop odor and do the girls a favor? Disclaimer: I’m not a scientist and
make no claims about curing or treating any diseases. Just trying to help
with my funky pit stench.
Scent description: Very citrusy. Sweet and tart. Bloggers,
help me out—how you would describe the scent?
Also, I'm looking for a fitting name. Somehow Desperation Deodorant doesn't seem particularly appealing.
Ingredients: arrow root powder, baking soda, coconut oil,
bentonite clay, essential oils of grapefruit, lemon, lemon myrtle, lime, and
sweet orange.
Warning: Before you try it, please do a small patch test it to ensure you have no sensitivities to any of the ingredients. Also, some of the essential oils may be photosensitizing,
so don’t go waving your pits around in the sun :)
Instructions: Rub a dollop between your fingers and massage
onto CLEAN and DRY armpits. I like to allow a few minutes for the oil to sink
in before putting on clothing, but it goes on pretty dry so it’s not absolutely necessity.
