Have you ever had one of those days?

I hadn’t slept very well the night before and had to be up at 6 and out the door at 7 (I can usually sleep till 7:15). So in my haste and tired state, I got dressed and forgot to use my deodorant.

Now let me back up a bit.

I had tried and used at least 7 different natural deodorants and always thought they were pretty good but not great.

In 2014 I went on a business trip and met Stacia and Robert Guzzo, the owners of Smarty Pits. We became fast friends and I was excited to hear more about their product, Smarty Pits. She gave me one to try! I was excited for my arms pits and my nose.

So the next day I used the Coconut Mango and the smell was divine. But would the deodorant work? Day 1, and it was so good. Day 2, I was still good. Day 3 I called and asked Stacia if they would wholesale to me because I wanted to sell it at my shop.

They did and it was a best seller.

So, back to “my day”.  I taught a class on DIY sugar scrub and with no air conditioner in the room and 36 students, I was sweating heavily. I headed to the car and started unpacking my cart. What is that odor? I look around. Then I realized that OMG, it was me! I WAS SMELLY!! I quickly put my arms down, headed to work, and kept them glued to my body for the rest of the day.

Well, the next day, just like Groundhog Day, I got up at 6 and was out the door at 7 to teach the 2nd class. But this time, I remembered to use my deodorant. It was the same hot classroom, same no air conditioning, but this time with 40 kids, so I was sweating even more.

I got back to the car and loaded my stuff into the back. This time, the sweet smell of coconut mango wafts out from my armpits. I WAS NOT SMELLY ANYMORE!!

I was thrilled. Talk about proof it works!

So I raise my un-smelly arm happily as a testimonial to how great this deodorant works!!

* As of March 2024, the company unfortunately closed its doors.

Fortunately, in May 2024, Stacia started making SMARTY PITZ exclusively for us!  It’s the same formulation made by the same formulator.

It only has a slightly different name.
