During the summer, application is really easy because coconut oil (what holds the cornstarch and baking soda together, pretty much) has a really low melting point and the deodorant stays creamy. I just dig my fingers in and rub about a dime-sized amount on my armpits. During the fall and winter, however, (especially if your house is old and poorly heated, like mine) a little rubbing is required to warm up the deodorant enough for the coconut oil to melt and become spreadable. This process is kind of weird or off-putting to some people, but I used Lush’s Aromacreme for a long time before I started making my own deodorant, and it’s applied in roughly the same way, so the whole thing wasn’t too foreign to me

Indeed, you can get anaphylactic shock from bites, but you’d have to be REALLY REALLY REALLY allergic or get something over 100 bites. I know you’re alive, so no anaphylactic shock, I guess. Try some benadryl cream if they keep itching you; or look for a home remedy that you’re so fond of :]

I really enjoy your domain, too, dearie!
