Distilled mead made from local honey serves as the alcohol base for this formula which offers antimicrobial benefits. Into this base, I infused dried, powdered grapefruit peel harvested here on Maui. I then combined the infusion with distilled rose geranium hydrosol—also sourced from the land. Citrus –especially grapefruit is traditionally used to support healthy lymphatic movement. Because lymph nodes and vessels are concentrated in the underarm area, citrus can help encourage freshness by supporting your body’s natural cleansing processes.
Sage petites essential oil reduces heat in the body and helps to prevent sweating. It is also the oil for the lady, balancing to hormones and especially helpful during perimenopause-menopause transitions. Sage is also a great disinfectant.
And rose ahhh. Rose otto essential oil is aphrodisiac like, lifting depressive moods, calming and relaxing to the emotions and nervous system. It is also anti-viral and also antiseptic. And then its scent — deep, rich, and floral a gift from nature to your heart.
Aloe soothes and protects the skin while adding a refreshing, cooling feel to the deodorant.
