For the sticks I used this one: http://becomingpeculiar.com/homemade-summer-deodorant-that-wont-melt-in-your-cupboard/I did not use it yet, but my husband does and he likes it a lot.The recipe I use is practically the same, but I did not put the beeswax. I therefore don't use it as a stick. I like it also. I think that for the summer I'll add some Sage essential oil as it regulates perspiration.

I searched a lot of places for a good and simple recipe, and tried a few, I can't really suggest the best place since a lot of it is subjective. After many trials I ended up coming up with my own 1 part baking soda, 1.5 parts cornstarch and 2 parts cocoa butter.

I got mine from http://www.crunchybetty.com/all-roads-lead-to-the-pits-homemade-deodorant. Crunchybetty.com has a lot of homemade recipes, I also thought the consistency of this recipe worked well with this container. There are other recipes that are more moisturizing, but they tend to have a more moist consistency that this container wouldn't work as well for.

Search under "home made deodorant" and choose your favorite. This is my fav: http://wellnessmama.com/1523/how-to-make-natural-deodorant-beating-the-b-o-with-natural-deo/ Really easier than you would think. I recommend using the beeswax, it gives you a stable bar that will work well with the deodorant tubes. Caution-baking soda can burn if your skin is sensitive. I omit baking soda but increase the corn starch/arrowroot powder and add more essential oil of tea tree and lavender. My husband has no trouble with baking soda so I make his batch with and mine without.

I do google searches. There are different recipes to follow, so you'll have to experiment to find the one that works best for you. I used a recipe from wellness mama, it works very well for me.

This is what I mix for one deodorant container... „Ã 1.5oz Liquefied Coconut Oil + 1/8 Tsp Baking Soda + 1 TBSP Arrow Root Powder + 8 Tsp Bentonite Clay + 5 Drops Of Any Scented Essential Oil ( Note if it makes your pits itch, back off on the baking soda, you need to use such a tiny amount of that ) I like to use lime oil or teatree and pepemint oil for scent. I keep mine in the fridge too. Keeps it fresh, solid and fees nice going on. Enjoy

I mix it with Shea Butter, Grapeseed oil, vitamin E, Almond oil and heat it in the microwave and mix it. Let it cool for a bit and add Aloe Vera Juice and in a container at least twice the volume use a stick blender and whip it. I actually put the bowl in a larger bowl of ice while I whip it so you can get the consistency of a lotion. All of the ingredients are good for the skin, it depends on how much of each as to the oiliness of it in the end. You could just melt it and add water and whip it I suppose, or maybe glycerin and aloe instead of water. I am still experimenting, but if you are a member of Pinterest there are a lot of actual recipes.

I would not use these butters for a deodorant because it would probably stain your clothes and make your feel sticky. If you're looking for natural deodorant, apply a little bit of baking soda after your shower while your underarms are still moist. Yes, the butters make a nice lip balm.

I purchased this last year and honestly don't remember the ingredients. I do know that it is natural and a mineral salt is used. The main thing to remember is to shower and get the crystal wet before applying. Regular deodorants failed me too many times and a friend recommended using the crystal. It's been a year and I have had success with the crystal. I hope this helps you.

I am sorry, I have no knowledge of recipes. I just use it for grilling, like hot dogs or Korean bbq style meats.

I did a Google search, and came up with dozens of recipes from YouTube, Pinterest, and various blogs across the web. An easy one is to melt together equal parts of mango (or shea or cocoa) butter, beeswax, and coconut oil (or olive or sweet almond oils). When all butters, oils, and waxes are melted together, remove from heat, and pour into your molds. Here's a recipe link too, her recipe is very similar to the one I use. http://wellnessmama.com/4770/lotion-bars/

It still contains potassium alum, which I believe has some aluminum in it, but most of the natural deodorants contain that ingredient. It also contains something called phenoxyethanol, which sounds like a type of alcohol probably used as a preservative, but I think it's natural. This is a good product, but I've started making my own deodorant that I think is more effective using coconut oil, cornstarch, baking soda, and a few other ingredients. You can find recipes online.

There is a great cookbook out for Dutch ovens called Glorious One-Pot Meals by Elizabeth Yarnell. Over 200 pages, soft cover book. No pictures, but the book is very well put together and some great recipes, all seperated by category. Seafood, vegan, chicken, vegetables, etc. If your looking for recipe ideas, check this book out :P

I'm not familiar with lotion bars, personally. However, as long as they are a consistency that is firm enough to maintain a bar shape they should work just fine with these deodorant containers. I used them for homemade deodorant made from shea butter, cocoa butter, Vit E oil, baking soda and corn starch as the main ingredients. They turned out great. One tip.. tap them on the counter or stir the contents a little (maybe do both) to prevent air bubbles from getting trapped and ruining the nice look of your bars. ;) Hope that helps.

Ditto on the prior answers, but they all come up short. Just call the company at 1-877-466-7342 Monday - Friday between 8am and 4:00pm CST and their Consumer Representatives will be happy to assist you. They are really quite helpful and emailed me a .pdf recipe book that contains dozens of recipes, many more than are available via the pamphlet you received with the product.

I used it to make lotion bars. I found the recipe I used on Pinterest. You can also Google recipes. Best of luck.

There are recipe books available on the manufacturer's website. The website should be printed on the material that came with the unit, or just search "Aroma."

i don't use the mixes. i have a cook book for the dogs so I make my own. I find it less expensive to do it myself. Good luck I love the machine it keeps me from sweating to death trying to bake cookies in this heat.

Don, There are a lot of recipe out there and I think I used most of them, I think this one is very good in that it only takes 4 hours, so here it is. This recipe is from Dan Leaders taken from the internet.

No I have not, but I use it as deodorant, lotion, to take off make-up, you can even mix it with baking soda and a few other ingredients to make toothpaste!!!
