Homemade deodorants - Natural Deodorants which can be made in your home

A quick look at the history of deodorants and perfumes reveals that personal hygiene arrived later than the fragrance of personal objects, such as gloves, bed linens, and clothes. Indeed, until modern sanitary ware was invented, washing was considered a bit of a nuisance rather than the daily necessity we now take for granted.

This means that deodorants and perfumes were used to mask body odors, which is still the role of deodorants today. However, by using the following homemade deodorants, you are only applying natural, plant-based ingredients to your body. These work in harmony with your skin and body, keeping you naturally fresh and clean
