With advances in technology comes the availability of commercial deodorants that promise satisfaction. However, you should be aware that not all of them are considered healthy. Some of them contain ingredients (such as aluminum) that may cause rashes or irritations, and even lead to skin disorders. Spraying chemicals on your body day after day might not be a good idea.

What makes the best deodorants? Are they the ones that whiten your armpits and make them odor-free? Are they the ones that prevent your from perspiring? Are they the ones which are widely available in the market today, or are they the natural ones that allow you to perspire?

Many people have long believed in the notion that sweating is the root cause of body odor. But this isn’t actually the case. Bacteria are the #1 cause of odor, not perspiration. You should also know that sweating is one of the body’s natural mechanisms to get rid of unwanted toxins. So eliminating perspiration “seems like a good idea on paper” but it’s worth understanding the pros and cons.

Aside from being healthy and chemical-free, natural deodorants can be budget-friendly. We found a great tutorial on how to make them. And the process is surprisingly easy! Here are some of the ingredients they included:

Cocoa butter is probably one of the most popular ingredients of many beauty products nowadays.
