Here is a recipe for a spray antiperspirant.
1 cup water
1 1/2 teaspoons alum powder (can be found online, and at some drugstores)
1/4 cup vodka

combine ingredients and stir to dissolve alum. pour mixture into a spray bottle or container with a tight lid. to apply, spray on, or use cotton.

Thanks, I don't know what alum powder is but I'll look it up on the net, thank you I'll try those ingredients.

It can be found online as well, at online pharmacies and i also saw it on amazon.

Also baby powder works well as a deodorant

By the way, just yesterday I saw alum powder in the spice section in the grocery store.

wash with soap. Dry arm pits. Then wet armpits with vineagar, white preferably.
Armpits smell due to bacteria- ( I think they release sulfur) that can live in a high salt concentration type of enviornment.
Vineagar is acidic and kills the bacteria.
I used to do this when I was broke in college studying bacteria. lol!

Caution: If your skin is sensitive, be careful with shaving and vineagar deodorant.

Alum powder is very effective and never cause dark armpits. It can be also used as foot deodorant by rubbing some powder within your feet especially in-between toes.

You can also use liquid chlorophyll, which has natural odor absorbing properties. You can make your own with lawn clippings- yep, just grass, cut into bits. Put into a clean jar, and cover with 1 cup of vodka. Cover tightly with a lid and store in a cool dark place for one week. Strain and discard the clippings. Here is a recipe for a chlorophyll deodorant:
1 TBSP glycerine
2 TBSP Vodka
1/2 C witch hazel
1/2 tsp. liquid chlorophyll

Combine ingredients and pour into a spray bottle.
