Homemade Toothpaste

Why spend $5 a tube for natural, fluoride-free toothpastes? Try this recipe instead. The Lambies have given it their approval.

Homemade Toothpaste

2 Tbsp coconut oil
3 Tbsp baking soda
1/2 small packet of stevia, or liquid drops to taste

Mix well, then flavor with:

5 or more drops peppermint oil
OR
5 or more drops spearmint oil
OR
1 tsp cinnamon + 3-4 drops clove oil

I bought some anise oil. We are going to try that next time. I store mine in a wide mouth food container with a tiny little samplespoon I snagged from Target.

Homemade Deoderant

Don't poison yourself with storebought chemical sticks! I found this at Naturally Knocked Up.

Homemade Deodorant

1/4 cup aluminum free baking soda

1/4 cup organic cornstarch (or arrowroot powder)

5-6 tablespoons coconut oil

5-10 drops tea tree oil

Mix all ingredients together and press into an old deodorant container. To use, let it rest against your skin for a couple seconds to soften the coconut oil, do one slow swipe under each arm and use the palm of your hand to spread it around.
