So im curious. I have now added Deodorants to my homemade collection of things I sell. Now i got all the supplies I needed to make them and then broke down what it would cost to sell them. They are 2oz bottles and are made of ALL Natural. They contain NO Aluminum which is very bad for your skin as well as the earth. It is great because it also has a melting point of 120 degrees! So it wont melt in the heat. What im wondering is would you pay a little more for a product like this? I would have to sell it at $6 to double what it cost to make but im going to sell for $5. Thoughts?


So if I were to make up samples would anyone try them if they came in a lip balm container LOL i have a million of them and would offer samples in that type of size and bottle. Or is that to weird?


Update!

Ok so made a 2nd batch and made it in Cucumber Melon scent. Smells Amazing! I have heard from others that no matter how much scent they add it soaks it up and smells of nothing so figured id try it and it worked! So i could make this in anything from cotton candy to ameretto! 


Does anyone here that is interested in this deodorant live in WA state? I went and spent over an hour in the hot sun cleaning up the tree that fell in the storm so hot and sweaty then went for 2 hours at my moms(about 80 degrees outside) and she was hardcore cleaning and had a fire going in her house to get all the trash gone. i helped her clean for 2 hours dumping sweat and i still smell like cucumer melon! I NEED people to try this product! I cant afford shipping right now so i want to offer this to anyone in WA state? so i can get a few reviews. I dont have friends in real life and Even if i did my fans would think i made them say nice things! which i would never do!

I would try it for that price. I have horrible eczema that spreads across my body. The past year it has been under my arms and deodorant irritates it so much. I've tried lots of home remedies and I also tried that Tom's deodorant and none of it works.

I would have to try it out first and see if I liked it, but I would pay that price for it if it worked!

No. I won't use home-made products from people I don't know.

There are a lot of etsy sellers who sell home made deodorant. And they have audiences. 

Unfortunately, I'm a very, very sweaty person and I need the chemical stuff to keep me from constantly having pit stains. I tried the natural stuff and it didn't work for *me* but I know other people who use it.

Quoting abbymomof1:

Honestly, only if I personally knew you.
I hope everything works out for you though :)
