"Our deodorant is different."
"Yeah... They all say that."
"No, it really is."
-
First: It's a whole-body deodorant cream. Pretty much anywhere there's a potential for stinkage, you can now defeat.
Second: You know how "natural" deodorants often cause a burning rash & sometimes still don't work very well?
-
That's not us.
-
Baking soda is a major cause of the burning pit rash, and our deodorant does not contain baking soda.
AND it's effective ALL day long.
We've tested it without showering that night, & the next morning there's still no stink. And then that night there's still no stink. Then the next morning at our next shower time, once again, still no stink. Yes, 48+ hours with NO STINK!
THIRD: Not only is our Perfect Pits™ Deodorant FREE of toxic chemicals (including cancer-causing neurotoxins like aluminum, & common endocrine/hormone disrupters)... but we also don't use questionable "natural" ingredients (like titanium dioxide, etc.), that other so-called "natural" companies use.
Hint: Reading the ingredients list is important, EVEN IF they claim to be natural. We invite you to read ours. We researched the world over to find healthy, stink-stopping ingredients that work!
- Our Butters & Oils ~ serve a fresh-pit-purpose with their anti-bacterial & anti-fungal properties, to fight off the bad guys.
- Our Beeswax ~ provides an extra layer of protection, but still allows your body to naturally sweat a bit… (which it's supposed to do!).
- Our Arrowroot ~ soothes, calms, & nourishes your skin, while absorbing underarm moisture.
-
Our powerful Magnesium & Zinc ~ are the 2 key ingredients that keep you fresh all day or longer! We only use non-nano, uncoated zinc oxide, so it only stays on the surface of your skin & does not absorb.
-
If you're not a fan of scented things, try our No-Scent formula. It doesn't contain any essential oils, and it has only the very subtle scent of the base ingredients themselves.
-
We do have Wonderful Scents we're confident you'll love, that include a very minimal amount of essential plant oils for additional deodorizing power. They smell astonishingly wonderful, but not overpowering… Just enough to be pleasant & do the job.
FOURTH:
Our Deodorant Can Also Be Used On Your:
- Feet
- Décoletté (ie: between & under your breasts)
- Belly button
- Skin folds
- Private Areas (exterior ONLY ~ not interior)
- Behind your ears
We're keeping you fresh in ALL the important places.

So, why a jar, and not a stick?
1 ~ Glass jars are reusable (Look for a blog post on this in the future. We'll be sharing lots of great ideas for reusing & repurposing your jars!)
2 ~ It's easy to scoop out with the back of your fingernail, or a popsicle stick, or a small scoop/spoon… and (just being honest here) you won't get gross hairs & lint stuck all over it, like your deodorant stick does.
3 ~ Applying with your fingers gives your lymph nodes a nice massage, which is VERY beneficial in keeping your body's lymphatic detox system moving.
4 ~ A little goes a VERY long way. Just a pea size (or less) works for most pits. Personally, I only use half a pea-size per pit!
5 ~ Complete coverage. You can actually feel exactly where it's being applied, without a big wonky stick smearing too much or too little, in the wrong spots.
6 ~ It puts you in touch with your own body. Application of personal-care products with your own skin allows you to be consciously aware of your physical body & connect with yourself & your senses.
7 ~ It's easy to travel with! Both our mini & full-size jars are perfect for on the go (in your purse, or for a trip!). And with the self-sealing lid, it won't leak, even if it melts from being left left in a hot car! That can't be said about sticks. No, sticks don't melt as easily, but if they do, it's just a big “hot mess.” And ours is not. :)
8 ~ Because it's pretty… It can sit on your countertop without being an eyesore. You can even organize a display of all your favorite Missouri Homestead Co., Pits & Pearlies™ products, so they're attractively within reach, whenever you need them.

Will we do a stick version down the road? Maybe, maybe not. Our feedback on the deodorant cream has been wonderful enough, that at this point, we're happy with our cute & convenient little jars. We hope you will be too!
