As with most cosmetics, we recommend using PiperWai within 6 months of opening and opening within 12 months of purchase. For external use only. Do not apply to broken skin. Do not use if you have any known allergies to the listed ingredients or to any botanicals or essential oils. These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. These products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. If you experience a rash that is itchy or painful, discontinue use as this could indicate an allergy.
Product Shelf Life: Because we use natural preservatives instead of harmful chemicals in our deodorants, PiperWai products should be used within 12 months from the date of purchase and 6 months after opening. To optimize shelf life, we recommend storing PiperWai with the lid on tight in a dry room with a moderate temperature.
Ever wonder why you stink?
You have two different kinds of sweat glands on different parts of your body – the eccrine glands and the apocrine glands. Eccrine produce sweat with simply water and salt to cool your body, while apocrine glands secrete what’s known as “stress sweat”. Apocrine glands are on your feet, groin, and armpits, and they secrete sweat with an added protein molecule attached to it that the eccrine glands all over the rest of your body don’t have. Your sweat itself is actually odorless, but it starts to stink when the naturally occurring bacteria under your arms eats away at that protein! Your body produces more of this type of sweat when you eat certain foods or when you’re stressed, which is why stress sweat is the most offensive kind – that is, if you wear any other type of deodorant besides PiperWai!
PiperWai creates a pH balanced environment under your arms where that stinky bacteria cannot thrive, so your sweat remains odorless. It works so well because it actually neutralizes the odor instead of just covering it up!
Let’s talk about activated charcoal!
We use the same kind of medicinal grade activated charcoal you can take internally for gastrointestinal upset. Activated charcoal is SUPER absorbent – it absorbs odor, moisture, and toxins! This helps most people transition seamlessly from their clinical strength antiperspirant to PiperWai. No detox period necessary.
Of course, every body is different. But then again, so is PiperWai.
Why PiperWai? Because it works, naturally.
