I ditched store-bought deodorant 3 years ago. It took about a week for my body to adjust. That was my stinkiest week ever. Haha! After making my own for about a year and a half, my recipe was just too abrasive and didn't withstand any heat at all...so it was usually melted. I didn't have beeswax or shea butter in it. I buy Young Living's deodorant and I love it! I never feel like I stink...mainly because now that my body can flush its toxins like it's supposed to it doesn't build up. I smell like a person. Not a flower shop. (Or a funeral home...take that however you want. Haha!)
I can't stand being behind the ladies that apparently bathe in feminine deodorant. Like...how bad does your hooha smell that you have to spray that much and why don't you just take a bath?!
Sorry, little rant there. Anyway, yes! Ditch the toxic deodorant! Thanks so much for sharing. :)
