Instructions
ONE RECIPE FILLS APPROXIMATELY {16} ONE OUNCE CONTAINERS
Measure and add coconut oil and olive oil to a one quart Mason Jar, set the jar in two or three inches of hot water and set your burner to medium/low.
Add beeswax, melt all three ingredients together slowly, stirring occasionally.
Add shea butter, melt slowly while stirring occasionally.
Add arrowroot powder, stir to blend.
Add rosehip seed oil and vitamin e oil at the very end, stir to blend.
Pour into glass or PET plastic jars. 4 oz jars are a handy size in my experience.
Let cool to harden, store in refrigerator.
WHEN YOU'RE READY FOR REFILLS:
Scoop out desired amount of refrigerated deodorant base and slowly melt it down in a mason jar water bath, add essential oils, stir and pour into desired deodorant container, let cool.
