Wearing pit liquor
When is the best time to apply Pit Liquor?
It is best to apply to fresh clean armpits right out of the shower and at least 3 sprays per pit. At first, the product may need to be reapplied throughout the day until your body adjusts.
Is this product safe to use for pregnant or nursing moms or their kids?
Pit Liquor is absolutely safe! Because the alcohol evaporates off your skin, you run zero risk of absorbing it into your bloodstream. Pit Liquor came about when our founders were pregnant with their first child, as a safe and healthy alternative to toxic deodorant! Fact: hormonal women need a strong and healthy deodorant, and Pit Liquor was created from that need. Also, moms are absolute queens.
How long does a bottle last?
On average, a 100ml bottle (that's our largest spray) will last 3-4 months, and a 50ml bottle (that's our small spray or roll-on) will last 2-3 months. This can vary from person to person depending on use.
Should I order a Spray or a Roll-On? Which is better starting out?
It truly comes down to personal preference. Some people prefer the roll-on since it is more familiar, similar to a stick. The spray is our recommended method (clean and hygienic, multi-purpose so you can spray more than just your pits), and our most popular seller.
Is your product safe for use by children & teenagers?
Ah, puberty... a time in everyone's lives when the hormone monster takes over and the odor battles begin. To answer simply, yes. Pit Liquor can help your kiddos battle their newfound odor in a safe, natural way. We denature (make it taste REALLY bad!) all our products to make them safe regardless of age. Don't forget, Pit Liquor can be used on shoes + apparel too! Keep their gear fresh with a few sprays of Pit Liquor.
Can I use Pit Liquor if I shave my armpits? Won't it burn because it's alcohol?
This is a great question! It really varies by person—most common is a mild stinging sensation that passes quickly, but the only way to find out is to try. If you are more sensitive, give your pits some time to dry after you've shaved. Freshly shaven pits are more exposed and your skin has micro-abrasions from the razor causing any stinging to be more apparent. After a few uses, the sensation will diminish and/or go away completely. Upside to putting alcohol on your pits—ever have razor burn? Well, that's caused by bacteria, you know what kills bacteria?! Pit Liquor...Pit Liquor kills bacteria. Buh-bye razor burn! You're welcome!
Can Pit Liquor be used on other parts of the body?
Pit Liquor is amazingly versatile. Spray it all over—pits, feet, face, under-boobs, use it as hand sanitizer, spray your funky sneakers and gym bag—anything and anywhere you want to be fresh and smell great. Many customers use Pit Liquor below the belt, just keep in mind—Pit Liquor is made for external use only, and we always recommend testing sensitive areas with care.
What is Pit Liquor?
What is that white stuff on the bottom of the bottle?
The sediment on the bottom of the bottle is Arrowroot. This natural antimicrobial powder helps the product stick to your armpits and do its job, so make sure to shake up the bottle thoroughly before each use.
If your product is made with alcohol, won’t I smell like I’ve been drinking?
While Pit Liquor is powered by whiskey and vodka, the alcohol will quickly evaporate off of your skin—much like hand sanitizer. Unlike sanitizers, however, Pit Liquor is made with organic ethyl alcohol and is perfectly safe for your body. Shortly after you apply Pit Liquor, all you’ll be left with are the essential oil-based scents.
What are those green globs in my bottle? Is there mold in my Pit Liquor??
The oils we use can pick up a green tint when they're being infused with our efficacious botanicals. In other words, that's plant power! This is normal and does not mean there's anything wrong with your Pit Liquor.
Do you use fragrance?
"Fragrance" is a bit of a bad word around here. The term "fragrance" is used in a lot of body products to hide chemical-laden ingredients. We prefer the term “scent.” We clearly list all of our ingredients in their naturally derived form– ingredients like lavender, black pepper, and sea salt. Every essential oil we use is thoroughly researched to make sure it’s completely all-natural, we only want the finest going on your pits!
Does Pit Liquor expire?
It does not! However, we do recommend using it within a year of purchase for maximum freshness.
Is Pit Liquor an antiperspirant? Or does Pit Liquor help control sweat?
Pit Liquor is a deodorant, not an antiperspirant. We do add several antimicrobial ingredients that help keep the pits a bit drier and some customers report that Pit Liquor helps control sweating but that is not our main goal. Sweating is a natural function and we believe it should not be blocked.
Are your products gluten-free?
We know it seems strange, "how can a product made of wheat be gluten-free?" but it is! The alcohol we use has been distilled to a point where all proteins and sugars have been converted into alcohol. This means that none of the gluten protein is left in the alcohol. We do want those of you with severe allergies to consider any reactions you may have had to similar products when considering purchasing Pit Liquor.
Did you know the name Pit Liquor sounds like Pit Licker?
Yes, Karen, we're aware. It's called a homonym. You choose to hear/do what you want with it! We won't judge.
