Sweaty Situation? Pit Liquor Can Handle It.

Sweaty Situation? Pit Liquor Can Handle It.

Like death and taxes, sweat is an inevitable part of life. Unlike death and taxes, it’s actually good for the body and mind to get your sweat on. For those who haven’t yet discovered Pit Liquor, stinking can also be a part of life. Before we concocted this natural, whiskey-based deodorant, we suffered through many sweaty (and smelly) situations. If you plan on partaking in any of the following scenarios soon, it’s about time you stocked up on some Pit Liquor. 

 

Flailing During a First Date 

Some people are just really good at going on dates. They’re unicorns. For most of us, a first date ushers in an existential crisis like no other. Suddenly, everything is called into question - your wardrobe, your restaurant choice, the way you style your hair. The only way to avoid sweating through a first date is if you take your romantic interest to an ice rink or a penguin exhibit. Quench your stench with Pit Liquor’s whiskey lavender natural deodorant. It’s light, fresh, and, most importantly, powerful enough to kick body odor to the curb. No third wheel needed on this date. 

 

Taking Center Stage at a Halloween Costume Contest

You’ve thought of every accessory to create the perfect Sonny Bono costume, right down to the eye-catching metallic platform shoes. You know what doesn’t pair well with your white, flowy gossamer blouse? Yellow pit stains. That’s why you’ll pair your groovy duds with Pumpkin Spice Pit Liquor. When you go to strut your stuff across the stage and reach for that 1st place trophy, the only thing you’ll radiate is peace and love, baby. 

 

An Ambiguous Job Interview

Your sweat situation seems to be under control until the interviewer asks you to name your greatest weakness. Raspberry cheesecake, a man who plays the guitar. Oh, no, they mean personal weaknesses that could potentially impact this job you so desperately want. You rack your brain trying to remember what you and your roommate rehearsed just hours before. The pungent scent of your body odor begins to diffuse throughout the room. Body odor. Body odor is your greatest weakness. Next time, give yourself a dose of liquor courage with our straight Whiskey deodorant

 

Meeting the In-Laws

Armed with a bottle of wine and a bouquet of flowers, you ring the doorbell to your future in-laws home. Your partner assures you for the seventh time that they’ll love you. Yet somehow, just as the door swings open, you break out in a thin sheen of sweat. Maybe they won’t notice if you quickly wipe your palms on your pants before reaching out for a handshake. Prime your pits with Coconut Lime Pit Liquor so that you can go in for a big bear hug, pits first. 

 

Giving a Toast at Your Best Friend’s Wedding

Really, any public speaking engagement is cause for perspiration. What if you flub a line, linger for a beat too long after a corny joke, or accidentally spill an embarrassing bachelorette party story much to the bride’s chagrin? Hopefully you stashed some Whiskey Vanilla Pit Liquor in your bridesmaid bouquet. 


Sweating means you’re alive! It also means you’re working hard or pushing past your comfort zone to do things that may make you a little nervous. Go you. Pack Pit Liquor along on this little ride called life and you won’t have your B.O. riding shotgun any longer.

5 Stages of Deodorant Disappointment

5 Stages of Deodorant Disappointment

Finding a natural deodorant that works and keeps your body free from toxins, irritants, chemicals is a roller coaster of emotion that usually ends in dismay. You’re forced to buy a ticket to get back on the ride. If you’ve struggled to source a non-toxic, organic deodorant that eliminates stank and doesn’t irritate your pits, it’s likely you’ve experienced the 5 stages of deodorant disappointment.

It’s not me, it’s you.

You board the crowded subway and grab a hand hold only to catch a whiff of garlicy-musk so strong it brings tears to your eyes. You think to yourself that this bout of body odor must be coming from someone else in the packed transit car. You bought this deodorant yesterday, after combing through countless reviews. Yeah, that scent totally belongs to someone else. We’re in a heat wave after all and these bozos probably didn’t do as much investigation into their pit products.

The WTF Stage.

You sit down to lunch with a friend at a cute outdoor patio and reach across the table for the pepper only to catch another pungent whiff. Hint: it’s not your salad niçoise. What the ever-loving hell is going on here, you think as you vigorously pepper your lunch. Why is this new deodorant not working? Should you dab at your ripe pits with the delicate linen napkin across your lap or rush to the bathroom to a quick PTA bath, minus the T and A?

Perhaps-ing your way to Pit Perfection.

On your walk back to your coworking space, your mind starts churning. Maybe you really do need to detox your pits for this natural deodorant to work. Perhaps you just need to wait a few weeks and keep using it, day in and day out for your body to grow accustomed to it. No other personal care products work like that though, do they? Perhaps if you just commit to reapplying it every few hours, you can stave off stink until some magical ingredient kicks in. You pick up another stick on the way back and reapply hurriedly in the drugstore bathroom.

Unbridled Dismay.

You return home at the end of the day only to discover your cat doesn’t even want to nuzzle up against you. You sniff your pits and alas, the B.O. is back, baby, with a vengeance. You make a mug of hot tea, sink down on the couch, and begin to sulk. Bear hugs, conga lines, and high fives disappear in the rearview as you soldier on into a decidedly solitary future.  

Unacceptance.

Like you, we’ve worked our way through the four stages many times, only to find that the fifth stage – buying another stick of deodorant in hopes of achieving healthy, fragrant pits – was not good enough for us. We decided that we were going to hop off this emotional rollercoaster entirely and make our own deodorant. One that is actually non-toxic. One that works. One that offers people the chance to try it without fear of throwing hard-earned money down the drain.

 

Enter stage left: Pit Liquor. Denatured vodka and whiskey kills the bacteria that live in your armpits. Within seconds, the light alcohol scent evaporates and leaves behind naturally scented essential oils, like lavender, pear, cedarwood, or rose. Teas, arrowroot, and salt make your armpit undesirable for new bacteria to grow, resulting in good smelling underarms all day long and no chemical regrets. Each body responds better to either the rum, vodka, or whiskey base and we are happy to help you find deodorant heaven.

 

It’s time to get off this ridiculous ride. You’ve got better things to do. Try Pit Liquor. If you don’t love it, your first one is on us.

Blasting the Boob Sweat

Blasting the Boob Sweat

Sunshiny time on a beach or by a pool can also mean pools of sweat. In the armpits, sure, but for many in the world there's another major problem area. Hint: They live between the pits. Or, for some of us, they used to. (Ugh, gravity works!)
