Elevated FAQs

Why not plastic containers, what's the big deal?

Plastic poses 2 serious issues. 1: To our Planet - Plastic NEVER breaks down. Yes, it can be down-cycled, but what most don't realize is that it can only be down-cycled so many times until it just stays in our ecosystem / oceans / landfills / etc. FOREVER. Not for 2 generations, but for ALL generations to come. 2: To our health Plastic is FULL off unsafe toxins. BPA is actually NOT safe & in some studies has proven to be worse. But that is just one of the many toxins in plastic. We just haven't been exposed to the threats of the others. Do your research, we did & as a company we would never want to put you or your Family's health in jeopardy. Instead, we are a company who offers safe, sustainable, eco-friendly containers for products going on the largest organ of your body, your skin!

What is Rear Clear used for?

Rear Clear is like a master "instant-wipe," it helps clean everything quickly, efficiently, and effortlessly, as well as moisturize, heal, and freshen.  It's AMAZING for:  IBS, hemorrhoids, itching, dryness, sores, etc.

Why is the Pits! Deodorant giving me a rash?

Most likely, it is the baking soda, as many are sensitive to it. Over time after detoxing from traditional deodorants/anti-perspirants, this sensitivity may go away.  To assist with this we recommend using and/or rotating between products.  Try our spray, detox spray and super-sensitive formula. If you are experiencing issues, please contact us, we want our products to work for you and will do our best to help that to happen.

I'm allergic to gluten/wheat, can I use your products?

YES! All of our products are gluten & wheat free! Customers with celiac disease love our products for this!

What are the "gritty" pieces in my balm?

Sometimes you will see little "grains" in our balms. This is due to it cooling & heating many times during shipping.  Because we use all natural ingredients with no synthetic or unhealthy binders, separation may occur during shipping in warm months.  We recommend not leaving your product in the mailbox.  This doesn't harm anything & should melt right on skin it's being put on.

Why does my PITS container look half full?

PITS! contains shea butter & may melt in the hot months. If it does melt, it is still a full 2oz.. However, instead of looking "full" it now is just concentrated & dense; so we advise using a little less to make up for this.

Is your sunscreen water resistant, and good for face?

Yes & yes!  It is water resistant (may need to be re-applied, depending on water activities, but holds up for awhile), and is ok to use on your face.  As a small company, we cannot pay the super high fees to get it tested and registered with the FDA.  That said, it was expert formulated to be SPF30, and customers have been using it effectively for 12 years now, in every region of the world (from Costa Rica, to Hawaii).

Are your products organic?

Most of the ingredients we use in our products are organic.  The list of ingredients for each product will show ones that are organic.  ALL ingredients are 100% pure & natural.
