The Product?
100% Natural Deodorant. This was a challenge, but that just makes it fun=D The first obstacle to overcome was the fact that most Natural Deodorants either aren’t truly natural, or if they are, they just plain don’t work! (More on that below.)
The next obstacle was the carrier or base. “All Natural” deodorants often contain nasty ingredients like propylene glycol. While there is not conclusive evidence against it, there is definitely cause for concern. One other carrier that is common is Coconut Oil. That was our first consideration. However, Coconut Oil comes in between 4&5 on the clogging skin index! (5 is the highest it goes.) Considering it can clog facial skin, and your underarm skin is sensitive as well…Well, that was somewhere we just didn’t want to go. 100% Natural Deodorant
Shea Butter to the rescue…
One of the reasons so many companies use Coconut Oil for Deodorant is because of the evidence that it is anti bacterial, anti this, anti that…So in research we were looking for an equivalent in that area, but without the high pore clogging factor! Research showed Natural Shea Butter to be just that! And Shea Butter absolutely LOVES your skin!
De-stinkers?
Dozens of hours of research went into this aspect of the product! We didn’t want to do the “easy” thing and just load up the Baking Soda! A lot of people find this an irritating ingredient. So after loads of research we decided to rely on smaller amounts of several deodorizers, in order to be as thorough in our odor attack, and as non-irritating as possible! 100% Natural Deodorant
Texture
Does this have the “store-bought” texture? Not exactly, but close. You pretty much have to use chemicals to get that texture. The store bought stuff is, after all, mostly a bunch of chemicals. This texture has been worked on pretty extensively to get as close as we can, but it isn’t exactly like “store-bought.” But we think you may find that with the new update (the reason it was out of stock for so long), you like it better than the “store-bought” versions! m00% Natural Deodorant
One last thing…
Softness. While you don’t want moisture in your pits, neither do you want a product causing you to “dry out,” and cracking your skin! We added Organic Jojoba, known for the same things as Coconut and Shea, but oh so creamy and soft! So between Natural Shea Butter, intensely soft Jojoba, creamy Meadowfoam, and a touch of silk your pits should stay nice and soft!
We like you❤️
We find the processes of creating fascinating! But if you stuck with us through all that explanation…well, thank you!
Instructions for Use: Remove cap and roll product up slightly until only the amount you are going to use shows. Apply small amount to entire, clean underarm area by swiping gently. Allow to absorb before getting dressed. This is a deodorant, not an antiperspirant. This works best for most people with one small daily application, and using “a lot” won’t make it work better, however you will have to experiment to find out your perfect amount. In hot summer months some people with excessive sweat may need to reapply in the afternoon.
Please Note: As with any new product test on small area of skin first to make sure you don’t have any sensitivity. If irritation develops discontinue use. A natural deodorant may take time for your body to adjust, especially if you have been using an anti-perspirant. Some people have found that mixing Bentonite Clay with AC Vinegar and applying to pits before beginning use of a natural deodorant helps speed the adjustment period. Simply make a paste of Bentonite and AC Vinegar and apply to underarms for 20 minutes. Rinse and dry. Do not apply deodorant for at least 4-6 hours after applying clay mixture to underarms.
Please Note: We have worked our best to reduce the price on this product to be more in line with other brands out there. As our deodorant is 30% more product than most, it is actually less expensive, and because of the low price point, this product is not eligible for any discounts.
Product Type: All Natural Deodorant
Brandi J –
Pit Stop works! We wanted to avoid aluminum and other harmful and unnecessary ingredients in deodorant-antiperspirants, so we tried Pit Stop. It has greatly helped my daughters and I. One of my daughters had an excessive sweating issue and this deodorant was the only one that stopped the odor. It is now a necessity in our home! Thank you, Spero Soaps, for making such a great product!

As a customer who had previously been using “store-bought-only” deoderants, I am really, really impressed with Spero’s Pit Stop deoderant! It work better than every natural store-bought brand I have tried (and I have tried three this past year, because nothing was cutting it). I only need to use a little bit in the morning for it to last all day! Furthermore, only using a little bit every day means that this product is going to last a long time (as I write this, I have been using it for three months and it still feels like I could still use it for another two weeks, at least!) I am definitely going to be a repeat customer for Pit Stop!
