Benefit from the
amazing properties of Himalayan sea salt for homemade deodorant! Make
your own DIY Himalayan salt deodorant right at home. Below are a few
reasons why Himalayan salt is good for use in a deodorant:
* Minerals – Himalayan salt is super rich in minerals that nourish the skin and help it detox. They include magnesium, potassium, sodium and more.
* Antibacterial – It kills off bacteria and germs that are the number one cause of bad body odor. When we sweat, it doesn’t stink but when the bacteria on skin mix up with the sweat is when the BO comes in full blast.
* Neutralizes bad body odor – Salt absorbs the bad odor and neutralizes it.
* Fresh clean skin – Himalayan salt also soaks up excess sebum and sweat on the skin, keeping it fresh and clean.
Below, I’ve listed two great DIY Himalayan salt deodorant recipes: one is a roll-on recipe and the other is a spray. I’d use the roll-on for winter and the spray for summer. But it’s all up to you! Choose whichever tickles your fancy.
# Roll On Himalayn Salt Deodrant
Ingredients
1 tbsp witch hazel
½ tbsp vegetable glycerin
1 tsp Himalayan pink salt
5 drops rosemary oil
5 drops peppermint oil
5 drops lemon oil
Roller bottle with stainless steel roller ball
Method
* Remove the stainless-steel roller ball from the bottle and add the essential oils.
* Add the Himalayan pink salt crystals and top with witch hazel and vegetable glycerine.
* Push back the roller ball firmly onto the bottle and shake well.
* Roll onto clean and dry underarms.
# Himalayn Salt Deodorant Spray
Ingredients
3 oz distilled water
2 tsp fine Himalayan pink salt
1 oz witch hazel
1 tsp baking soda
10 drops essential oil of choice (I like tea tree for antibacterial properties, lemon for fresh clean scent, lavender for sensitive underarms and geranium for floral scent)
Small funnel or Pyrex measuring cup
4 oz amber glass spray bottle
Method
* Heat the distilled water until very warm.
* Then dissolve the Himalayan sea salt and baking soda in it.
* Now let it cool off completely then mix in the witch hazel and drops of essential oil.
* Stir well.
* Carefully pour the Himalayan salt deodorant into a glass spray bottle. You many need a small funnel for this or use a Pyrex measuring cup.
* Spray onto clean and dry underarms as needed. Twice a day: before work in the morning and then in the evening works perfect.
