Article by: The Kitchn

What You Need

• 1/4 teaspoon Himalayan salt or sea salt
• 6 drops lime essential oil
• 10 drops geranium essential oil
• 2 tablespoons rosewater
• 2 tablespoons grain alcohol, Everclear or high-proof vodka (don't use rubbing alcohol because you can become sensitized to it with regular use)
• 4 tablespoons pure witch hazel
• 6-ounce glass spray bottle
• Small funnel

Instructions

1. Combine salt and oils: Combine the salt and essential oils in the glass spray bottle and gently shake to combine.
2. Add remaining ingredients and shake: Using the funnel, add the rose water, alcohol, and witch hazel. Tighten the cap and shake.
3. To use: Spray onto clean armpits and allow to dry briefly before dressing.
