My husband and I have been happily and successfully using a mixture of baking soda and coconut oil for our deodorant the last month or so, but we've noticed it's starting to ruin our shirts! 
What do you all use for laundry soap to get the oil stains out? We have VERY hard water. We were using Purex, but recently switched to Charlie's (and I add 1/4-1/2 c borax). I use cold water because these are cotton, darks, and more delicate-like. I don't want them to fade, run, shrink, and what-not.
TIA!

I separate all the shirts and do them as one load so I don't have to have it all smell.
I have premixed the CO and BS and so I use about 1/8-1/4 tsp per arm? DH probably uses a little more and he's hairy. We've been trying to put it on as soon as we're out, but I can only delay putting on my shirt a couple of minutes. The stains don't appear overnight, it was kinda a build up over 3-4 weeks that we noticed the dark oil areas appearing.
