Description

“You’re sooo sensitive!” Have you ever heard this? Did you take it as a put-down? We feel you. But, we believe sensitivity = feeling = being in touch with your heart = listening to your heart = getting to know your true self = being your true self = embracing being the snowflake you are = being a snowflake. Snowflakes need deodorant.

Sensitive Pit Cream is designed for people who experience irritation, redness, or discomfort from conventional or baking soda–based deodorants.

For the most sensi-sensitive-sensivistas, give our Bod Powders a try as a deodorant!

Plant Profiles
Coconut oil promotes a balanced pit biome, and the silky feel of Arrowroot starch naturally absorbs moisture. We borrow from the brilliant ability of Basil and Vetiver's (and herbs in general) to keep bacteria in line.

Details
Plant based, herbalist formulated pit potion for the most sensitive among us. This deodorant helps neutralize odor and absorb moisture without blocking sweat or disrupting the skin’s natural processes.

Some of us can only appreciate baking soda at a distance, some need less essential oils on their plant sensi-skin, some just love to get a whiff of the grassy-grassy-ness of Vetiver and green pop of Basil. We see you.

Good for:
- Sensitive or reactive underarm skin
- People who experience irritation from baking soda deodorants
- Daily deodorant use
- Those seeking odor control without antiperspirants

Not ideal for:
- Those looking for an antiperspirant
- People who prefer fragrance-free products (contains essential oils)
- Extremely hot climates if you prefer a stick or spray format

FAQ
What is the difference between the Sensitive Pit Cream and the Deodorant Cream?
The Sensitive Pit Cream is made without baking soda, and less essential oils overall. Some folks have a sensitivity to the alkaline properties of baking soda.
Does this deodorant soak in well on armpits with hair?
Yes both Deodorants work well with armpit hair. Just warm up the cream in your fingers before applying to the armpits and it will melt into your skin nicely.
Would storing this in a fridge increase its length of life?
We wouldn't recommend storing it in the fridge. Our Pit Creams are very stable products, just keep them out of high heat to maintain the potency of the plant oils.
