There is an even better video on Youtube -

DIY: How To Make Homemade Deodorant 

1 ounce of pure cocoa butter (I got from CVS for $1)
1/4 cup of cornstarch
2 tablespoons of baking soda
5 drops of tea tree oil
5 drops of lavender essential oil
1 drop of pure vitamin E oil
3/4 teaspoon of sea fresh fragrance oil- purchased from camdengrey(dot)com

The average cost of making my own deodorant, which is FREE of harsh chemicals is around $1.50, NOT BAD!

Here is a link to Sparkwisdom for another homemade tutorial.
