Body

Everybody finds themselves in need of a little moisture control from time to time and a simple homemade body powder is be the perfect fix.  Whether you’re getting sweaty being all athletic or if it’s just hot out having a good homemade body powder handy can make all the difference between being perfectly comfy or being uncomfortable and clammy.

This homemade body powder is very similar to my homemade deodorant recipe however the ratios are a little different.  Since deodorant has the tougher job of fighting odor it has a lot more baking soda than this recipe does.  Since with this recipe we are fighting moisture we have more absorbent than anything else!

Let’s make our homemade body powder!

I’ll admit it, I’ve got some nose pores that tend to be a little more dirty than I’d like.  It isn’t a huge deal, but it just seems like I can’t ever really get them scrubbed clean.  Store bought face wash only works ok.  Over the years I’ve tried a ton of different products with more or less the same result of not as clean as I’d like.  So, when I came across a simple homemade pore cleansing solution that was just powdered clay and apple cider vinegar I decided I should give it a shot.

As a guy I haven’t ever been overly eager for a “facial” before, not anti mind you, I never went out of my way to get one though.  For some reason, lately my silly nose pores have seemed a little more uncooperative than usual, so I decided to give this homemade pore cleansing clay mask a shot.

There aren’t a ton of homemade deodorant powder recipes around, so I scoured the internet and found a few awesome homemade deodorant powder recipes.

I haven’t tried out all of these recipes myself yet, but they all use basic non-chemically ingredients that should all mix together to fight odor, and absorb moisture.  I will definitely be trying out many, if not all, of these recipes over time, and will make updates as I do.

Now pick a recipe and start fighting odor without a ton of chemicals smeared in your armpits all day!

Several of these recipes use essential oils, so if you’re just getting started with making your own homemade goods, check out this essential oil starter kit to get your essential oil collection kick-started.

Deodorant, everybody needs it, and no one wants to admit it.  It’s something we use every (almost) every day of our lives.  Learning how to make deodorant is easy, and if you are looking for a way to stay fresh with less chemicals here’s how to do it.
