Aroma Therapy

Okay, the title may be misleading, but welcome Facebook and Twitter followers.

The ingredient list from the stick of deodorant I just used up:

Cyclopentasiloxane-skin softener
Stearyl alcohol-lubricant, emulsifier
C12-15 Alkyl benzoate-skin softener
cyclohexasiloxane-moisturizer
sodium polyacrylate-absorbant
Hydrogenated castor oil-moisture repellant
PEG-8 distearate-pearly effect
fragrance-smells nice
Hydrolyzed corn starch-absorbant

What I Made:

The ingredient list for homemade deodorant:



Corn starch-absorbant
Baking soda-deodorant, absorbant, exfoliant
Coconut oil-binder, moisturizer
Vitamin E-skin softener
Clove oil-antibacterial, smells nice
Orange oil-smells nice
Tea tree oil-antibacterial

Here's the recipe link. I love instructables.

It will be up to the Businessman and my adoring public to determine the results. I love a good experiment.

Pearly effect? Seriously? Who needs armpits that give off a healthy glow?
