Natural Body and Foot Powder

Body Powder is refreshing and keeps your dry.  But, with all the harmful ingredients in store- brought body powder, one is afraid to use it. Make your own safe and natural body powder in a few minutes with a few ingredients you may have on hand.

This is all you need to make your own natural body powder:

organic arrowroot powder (buy here)

organic cornstarch (buy here)

100% pure baking soda (buy here)

ground herbs (opt.) (buy here)

essential oil (opt.)

 Here’s the recipe

1/4 cup arrowroot powder (buy here)

1/8 cup cornstarch (buy here)

1/16 cup baking soda (buy here)

1 tablespoon ground herbs or flowers (opt.) (buy here)

15 drops essential of your choice (opt.)

Use organic if possible!

Simply mix all the ingredients in a glass or stoneware bowl until well mixed.   Using a funnel, spoon your body powder in a sifter container.  Or, if you wish, place in a used powder puff container.

My favorite recipe for summer

1/4 cup arrowroot powder

1/8 cup cornstarch

1/16 cup baking soda

1 tablespoon ground peppermint leaves

15 drops peppermint essential oil

Mix it all together and use it under arms and breast to stay dry and cool.  You can sprinkle it in your shoes, socks, and underwear for a refreshing scent and stay comfortable too.
