I’ve started making my own deodorant. In thinking about how to cut back on consumption and waste, this seemed like an easy way to buy less plastic and keep that same plastic out of the landfill…I use a recipe from the book Making It: Radical Home Ec for a Post-Consumer World, by Kelly Coyne and Erik Knutzen. All you need is olive oil, beeswax, and a few essential oils to make it smell nice - better for your body (no harmful aluminum), better for the environment, better for your bank account. That, my friends, is a triple threat.

Can you tell me where I can find some receipts online of handmade soaps and deodorants?
