Move your first plate to the fridge for a few hours.

Yes, you just made your first individual desserts of Tiramisu.

Repeat process with more lady fingers until you used all cheese mixture.

Quick Note

Cheese – for this recipe you can use mascarpone cheese. If you can’t find the Italian cream cheese or if it is too expensive use Philadelphia cream cheese. (original, don’t use light version)

Raw Eggs – this recipe is using raw eggs yolks. So be sure to use fresh, organic eggs. If you are afraid of raw egg yolks, you can cook egg yolks using double boiler method.

Lady fingers – check Walmart, Superstore, Safeway, Italian food stores in your area or any food store. If you have time you can make homemade lady fingers.

Heavy Cream – use 33% or higher

Icing sugar – if you don’t have the icing sugar, just make homemade version. Use coffee grinder or blender to make icing sugar from regular.

Cocoa – I used organic from Costco. If you don’t like the taste of cocoa use shaved chocolate or ground coffee.

And don’t worry like always 5 star cookies is here for you and we do have solution. The big and the best solution for your body odor. We have the homemade DIY recipes which is better choice from store-bought deodorants.

So, let me describe homemade natural deodorant recipe.

DESCRIPTION How to Make Natural Deodorant

-THE BEST NATURAL DEODORANTS (it is, trust me)

-only 3 ingredients DIY recipe

-organic flavor oils

To make your own natural deodorants you will need 3 simple ingredients:

coconut oil, baking soda and your choice of organic flavor oils.

My favorite oil to use is the sage oil. You can use lavender oil or mint organic oil.

This recipe will be your good luck recipe and the best way to get rid of unpleasant body odor.

Shopping List for DIY Recipe

coconut oil (organic coconut oil)

baking soda

sage oil (use your favorite essential oils)

Action Time

How to Make Natural Deodorant – Smelly Cat Cure

Ingredients

3 TBSP coconut oil

1 to 3 drops of sage oil (lavender oil or mint oil)

3 TBSP baking soda

INSTRUCTIONS FOR MAKING DIY RECIPE

Add baking soda to the small glass jar, small bowl or your favorite cup.

Then add 3 TBSP of coconut oil and stir 2 ingredients until it is smooth and fully combined.

Your next step is to add 1 to 3 drops of your favorite oil.

Stir again and you are done.

You just made new product in your kitchen.

It will look like a little white angel waiting to make you happy.

And above all this fresh scent is the best beauty products.

You will smell so good and from the first time you will love this DIY deodorant.

Please move the coconut baking soda mixture to a jar with lid or just keep it in a small cup cover with lid.

How to apply the natural deodorant

Use your own fingers.

Swipe a clean finger into the coconut and baking soda mixture.

Please use a very tiny amount.

Rub the mixture or very small amount into your underarm area.

Wait until it is dry before wearing clothes. (I like to wait 10 minutes)

IMPORTANT:

I did not have any problems with using the baking soda. (how about you?)

This is the recipe I am using for a very long time.

If you have redness or allergic reaction replace baking soda (or use smaller amount of the baking soda). Please check important note below.

If you are asking how often should you use this recipe the answer is below.

For the best results I use every morning after taking the shower.

BTW, this recipe works 100%. I will repeat again: This recipe works 100%

You will love this homemade deodorant recipe using simple 3 ingredients.

Once you make this recipe you will never buy or look for the store-bought deodorants.

This recipe will be your regular deodorant and you will save so much money.

Remember: Should I mention again and I will … the bad smell will be your past and your own deodorant will be the new products you will use every single day. Why? Because it is good idea and the best deodorant for all of you who are looking how to get rid of bad smell.

Quick Note

Coconut Oil – I used organic, liquid coconut oil. If you are allergic to coconut oil you can use almond oil, avocado oil or jojoba oil.

Baking Soda – I used baking soda with no ALUMINUM. Please this is super important, be sure you are using aluminum free baking soda for homemade natural aluminum-free deodorant. My favorite brand is Red Mill. The best place to buy is the health food store or any health store near you. (In Canada Vita Store, Superstore, Safeway is the place to buy sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) that has no aluminum in it.

Essential Oils – I like to use organic sage oil or organic Peppermint oil. Also you can use lavender oil or tea tree oil. I don’t like using cinnamon or clove oil. For me it is too strong.

Homemade Natural Deodorant — Natural Deodorant

IMPORTANT NOTE

1. In case you develop a rash underarm please stop using the baking soda in the recipe. Replace with arrowroot powder or tapioca starch. Another option is to cut baking soda in half so instead of using 3 TBS of baking soda use 1 1/2 TBS. Check your skin and the irritation will be gone.

2. Make sure that essential oils you are using are safe for you. For me I can’t use cinnamon oil. It is too strong for me.

3. When using the homemade deodorant recipe please use a tiny amount (and I mean very tiny amount). Wait for 10 minutes before you wear shirt or dress to avoid any staining issue.

4. Do not apply homemade deodorant immediately after the shaving. I like to wait at least 8 hours before I apply a tiny amount underarm.

FINAL NOTE about making Homemade Deodorant recipe (or your own deodorant)

Super easy to make. It is only 3 ingredients recipe.

BTW if you don’t like to use the essential oils you can make this recipe using only baking soda and coconut oil.It is that simple. Your own deodorant is not high-maintenance personality.

Final Grade: A+ for very best homemade deodorant recipe.
