Experiment with coconut oil, bicarbonate of soda (the bit that will stop the smell), cornflour and essential oil.

The bicarbonate of soda can affect some people's skin so mix with cornflour and patch test first. Mix together half a teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda and quarter of a teaspoon of cornflour. Form a paste with a little bit of coconut oil. Test on your armpit if there is redness reduce the amount of bicarb.

Then when you're happy with the blend make a larger amount using the same ration and add a few drops of essential oils.
