Acne Mask

1/2 tsp tomato juice

Apply.  Leave on for five minutes.  Rinse off with lukewarm water, then a second rinsing with cold.  This mixture can also help with scarring.

Basic Antiperspirant Deodorant Powder

1/2 c baking soda

1/2 c cornstarch

few drops essential oil, if desired

Place in jar.  Shake to blend.  Pat on with a dry washcloth.

I have not tested this one.  I feel odd about using a powder for this purpose.

Basic Liquid Antiperspirant

1/4 c each witch hazel, aloe vera, and mineral oil

few drops of preferred essential oil  (choosing on of the anti-bacterial herbs may increase the efficacy)

Combine ingredients in a spray bottle and shake before using.  (Quality of the spray bottle matters.)

This is the one that I use, and it has served me quite well.
