Pit Liquor Natural Deodorant

You're Worth It

 

Here at Pit Liquor headquarters, we regularly talk about how much we love our customers. We think you all are pretty amazing for many reasons, and one of the biggest is that you get it. You understand that spending money on yourself for good, quality products matters. And you aren't shy about sharing that with us and with your people.

We also fairly regularly get comments from non-Pit Liquor customers saying things like, "Your deodorant costs how much per bottle?" or "I'm not paying that when I can get a tube of deodorant at the drugstore for $3.99!" We usually chuckle a little and encourage these new friends to give us a try. Today let's take a closer look at why Pit Liquor is worth the splurge:

Cost Per Wear

Our 100ml bottles of deodorant cost $19.95, and last for 3-4 months. This means you actually pay around $5-6 per month for your deodorant. When you consider your lotions, body products, skin care, etc., you regularly pay just as much for a quality wrinkle cream or quality hair products.

We love a good bang for your buck as much as the next woman, so we have a little not-so-secret for you today: You can save money on our deodorant. How, you ask? Well, let me introduce you to our reFILL bottles. These babies hold 370ml each, which is enough to refill your 100ml spray bottle more than 3 times (that's about one year's worth!). Not only does this produce less waste, it keeps you on budget and stink-free for months at a time.

If reFILL bottles aren't your jam, try our subscription program. Subscribe to a product and save 12% off every purchase. That's money back in your pockets and an auto-shipment that saves you mental energy. Fun fact: if you really want to save you can subscribe and save on our reFILL bottles!

Little Luxuries

Out to eat with friends? $40.

Coffee at your favorite shop? $7 per visit

Good beauty and skincare products? $60 each

That subscription box everyone is talking about? $50 a quarter

It's crazy how fast small luxuries add up over time. With our glass bottles, beautiful labels, and fantastic scents, we see Pit Liquor as luxury for your arm pits. This much-maligned body part deserves some love too! Bonus points for looking beautiful on your bathroom counter.

Health Benefits

Need we say more? You already know Pit Liquor is an actually natural natural deodorant. (Or if you didn't you can read about it here!) We pride ourselves on our natural, organic ingredients. With a rising concern about the chemicals in deodorants, we believe this matters most of all. Your health isn't worth saving a few bucks. Period. We dream of a world without cancer or other nasty illnesses, and we see our deodorant is one step toward that goal.

 

So what do you say? Are you convinced? We sure are! Shop our amazing line of (actually) natural deodorant now and use code THANKS for 15% off through January 18.

Why use natural hand sanitizer?

Why use natural hand sanitizer?

 

Hand sanitizer has become a hot commodity this year. It's in every store, on the shelves and in dispensers. We're all using a whole lot more of it than we did last year. Did you know Distilled Bath and Body sells hand sanitizer too? But we think our Hand Liquor is a cut above the rest, and we're here to tell you why.

Methanol

Ever had a truly terrible hangover the morning after drinking? This might come as a surprise, but there's a reason for this that doesn't have anything to do with you drinking too much. Fasten your seatbelts, friends, it's time for a little lesson in how alcohol is made.

When alcohol is distilled, it sits in large containers for a period of time to let the alcohol settle. As it settles, the methanol alcohol rises to the top and the ethanol alcohol floats to the bottom. Ethanol alcohol is what's in your drink, and what your body can process. Methanol, on the other hand, cannot be processed as easily and is toxic, even deadly. To remove the toxic methanol, companies perform a process called "cutting" that siphons out all or most of the methanol, leaving the ethanol behind. The higher quality your liquor, the deeper it was cut.

Now these liquor companies who cut off their methanol are left with large quantities of un-sellable methanol alcohol. What to do with it? Why, make it into hand sanitizer of course!

Hand Sanitizers

Now let's be clear, not every hand sanitizer is made with methanol. The FDA has recently created new policies around methanol and issued warnings about it. But some methanol hand sanitizers are still sold, and this is where the "toxic hand sanitizer" claims originate. Additionally, even hand sanitizers without methanol can be unhealthy. Companies are not required to disclose where their alcohol comes from, meaning some use petroleum based alcohol or other chemical-laden products.

A Cut Above

Unlike other hand sanitizer, our Hand Liquor is made with grain-neutral, quality spirits that are made for drinking. Literally, you could drink our clean hand sanitizer with natural ingredients and be completely fine (although we don't recommend it!). The food-grade vodka and whiskey in Hand Liquor kills bacteria, but is safe to put on your body. And even though hand sanitizer is made from alcohol, we promise it's safe for little hands too. We purposely make our Hand Liquor taste bitter to deter children from drinking it. And because all our ingredients are food-grade, you can sanitize little hands before eating and have no fear for your child's health. And not only is our Hand Liquor clean & natural hand sanitizer good for your body, it's good for the environment too! You can use our glass bottles and enjoy the organic ingredients know you're taking care of yourself and our world.
