I used a spoon to stir it all together (the coconut oil has to be slightly warm to be really stir-able) and stored it in a small rubbermaid container. Wala!
I was using aluminum free deodorants, and tried a few brands, but found that they didn't work very well! And, they were still full of chemicals. So far, I'm liking this much better.
This is what I've been using as a facial moisturizer:
While we were in Ethiopia, one of the women we traveled with (Hi Andrea!) turned me onto this idea and I have been loving it!
If it seems too greasy after applying it, I will take a tissue and sort of pat my face down before putting any make up on. I believe my (old, aging, dull :) skin is looking better and it does not promote break outs.
I found this page today listing some of the benefits of olive oil for skin care.

She fell asleep on the window seat while I was making breakfast. Comfy eh? She is complaining about a sore throat and stomach ache. Bobby is on call for work. It looks like we will be worshipping, reading the Bible, praising and praying at home - missing church - today. (Again!) Recently, it has proven difficult to get everyone healthy at the same time. And summer isn't even officially over! Such is this wonderful life. ♥
Happy Sunday.

I actually love the coconut oil for my face moisturizer. That is what all the aboriginal tribes use....in the south pacific.;) I like the smell a little better than the olive oil...and it doesn't make me want to sing "eh mambo'' or ''That's amore" ♪♪ I end up singing '' put the lime in the coconut" LOL!
