PiperWai Natural Deodorant PIPERWAI.COM | [email protected] What exciting new product or collection will your company be unveiling for 2017? PiperWai is the first naturally powerful, aluminum-free deodorant that uses activated charcoal to absorb wetness and a blend of 11 essential oils to fight odor. Natural ingredients like organic coconut oil, shea butter and pure vitamin E soothe sensitive skin. Our stain-free formula rubs in clear and won’t discolor clothing. Initially created in a cream form, PiperWai is launching the stick applicator version of this cult favorite and best-selling product as seen on Shark Tank. What’s the brand’s outlook for the coming year in terms of expanding market reach and growing the business? PiperWai has come a long way since co-founders, Jess and Sarah, handcrafted the product in a community kitchen in Philadelphia. After a successfully funded crowdfunding campaign, and a meteoric debut on ABC’s Shark Tank, PiperWai is now expanding into Whole Foods Markets, several hundred lifestyle boutiques nationwide, international markets, and a brand-new line of natural personal-care products launching in 2017, including the highly anticipated stick applicator version!

I believe the foremost spa trend in 2017 will be wellness services on-demand. With schedules becoming tighter, and an increase in leisure and business travel, consumers will be looking for the most convenient options for pampering onthe-go. On-demand beauty and wellness service-based apps will be at the forefront of this industry since a majority of internet browsing is now mobile. SPECIAL PULSE ADVERTISING SUPPLEMENT
