I was delighted when Starla and Dana from Muddy H2O contacted me to review their all-natural deodorant, Pit Powder! I was immediately thrilled with the completely natural ingredients – absolutely no questionable ingredients in their deodorant! There are many “natural” products that still contain ingredients that are not the best option for our skin.
Antiperspirant deodorant contains the ingredient, aluminum, which is a toxic substance for our body to absorb. Aluminum does damage to the muscular, skeletal, nervous and respiratory systems.
Antiperspirant deodorants also are obviously made to keep a person from perspiring. Even if you use a “natural” antiperspirant, it is still designed to keep you from perspiring. The problem with this is that our bodies are made to perspire. Sweating is an essential and vital process to regulate the body temperature and release toxins. Antiperspirants lock poisons in and can cause health problems, including breast cancer.
Check out the ingredients of Pit Powder:
sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), maranta arundinacea (arrowroot powder), fuller’s earth clay, trigonella foenum-graecum (fenugreek seed powder), essential oils of organic citrus paridisi (grapefruit), organic lavendula angustifolia (lavender), organic pelargonium graveolens (geranium), organic melaleuca alternifolia (tea tree), organic pogostemon cablin (patchouli), organic cananga odorata (ylang ylang).
And using Pit Powder? Pit Powder does an awesome job of keeping me fresh for hours! I love how it makes me smell and feel so fresh, and I love knowing that I’m using a product that is actually good for my skin! As with any natural deodorant, apply it twice a day {or more if it’s a really sweaty day or you are very active}.
Psst…They also have Pit Stop for men!

I have used a couple that I have not liked yet.
I would love to try the Pit Powder Deodorant, I have been trying to find an alternative. The Chocolate masks look intriguing also !
No, I have never used a natural deodorant but I am ready to switch.
I’ve never tried one before but I’m ready!
I have used a natural deodorant…it’s by arm and hammer with no parabens and not aluminum. It works for a few hours then I have to wash, dry and apply again.
Yes, I have used Tom’s before which is sort of natural!
Interesting… worth a try!
I have made my own deoderant. I like it. I have also tried JASON and Tom’s brands. I am very interested in this product. TDickinson

I tried Crystal Body Deodorant. Didn’t work too well. Had to switch back to Mitchum’s.
Would really like to try the Pit Powder Deodorant.
Yes, I use salt sometimes, but normally use Tom’s or Nature’s gate. Let me know if these are bad.

I’ve never tried this kind of deodorant, I’ll try anything once!
I would like to try the Matcha eye & face mask.
I have tried TOMS but find it lacking
I’ve used the deoderant stone but quit because hubby kept dropping it and breaking in a million pieces.
have tried making it….ok in the winter, not so much in the summer!
Not yet.
I use coconut oil and sometimes baking soda on top of that. Works as long as I shower every day. But if I don’t, the funk might over power my natural routine.
I’ve been using plain baking soda for awhile now, and it seems to work pretty well! 🙂
