PiperWai

Two childhood friends from Philadelphia tried every natural deodorant, which left yellow armpit stains and continuous body odor, so they created their own. Their charcoal cream jar of PiperWai is packed with 11 therapeutic-grade essential oils like skin-conditioning organic coconut oil, shea butter, pure vitamin E and cocoa butter. It rubs on clear, so wave good-bye to any pesky stains.Available from PiperWai
