Calling all shops, have you ever thought that is a great product, but I need something that is going to make it stand out? Then look no further than our Pits & Bits Free Standing Display Unit which holds Shampoo, Body Wash and Wash Kits, all conveniently packed into a strong and sturdy display unit.
If you are after something slightly smaller such as counter top, don’t fear we still have our best selling Counter Display Units.
Good hygiene is very important when travelling, especially by bike. It is something often not taken seriously. When cycle touring, with all the sweat, bacteria can build up causing infections or boils. If you are travelling for a long period, you don’t need that!
When finding products to fill my panniers up and weigh down my bike, I came across Waterless Pits and Bits body wash and shampoo. They both don’t require any water so can be useful when out in the wild or away from showers. They are also very quick to use if in a rush.
They come in small 65ml plastic bottles so are handy for easily fitting into your luggage. Depending on use, I find that they can last up to a month if used a few times a week. If your planning a long trip, taking years you may need to take a couple of bottles!
Both very simple to use and only need to be wiped off with a towel after being applied. They shampoo is especially great, and smells good too, apparently apple fragrance! It cleans your hair and leaves it soft and without any sticky residue left.
The body wash is un-fragranced and has the option of being antibacterial, something I’d definitely recommend. It cleans, moisturises and eliminates odours. Both products are alcohol free, paraben free and have a balanced pH. All made in the UK!
If your planning an adventure or travel which may involve being away in the wild, or just not wanting to pay for campsite showers, I would highly recommend both of these products from Waterless, Pits and Bits.
They cost £2.49 each for 65ml

Pits and bits the waterless towel off wash in a bottle.
It lays claims to be able clean and moisturise the skin, able to remove dirt, grime, mud and all sorts of nasty stuff that you dont want on your hands after a run.
A quick rub of this stuff on your skin suddenly makes you realize that it can easily break down dirt and grime, removing the ground in dirt.
Odourless liquid, no stickyness and no after smell like alcohol gels make using this product a pleasant experience. Clean enough to eat your first meal after all that hard work.
What pits and bits didn’t know is I’ve actually been using this for a year already. I just bought the stuff as a trial for cleaning up after runs and it works a treat. I’ve been very happy with the results and will carry on using it.
Pits & Bits: Towel Off Body Wash – a waterless cleaning liquid targeted at cleaning yourself off after racing, camping, festivals, or outdoors: “Whatever your pleasure, Pits & Bits will clean you post activity – without water.” Sounds good.
I used a bottle to clean myself off after running the recent Loaded Tough Guy and Gal Challenge in Wellington (a post about this race coming soon).
This is the degree to which Tough Guy and Gal Wellington got us muddy… and Pits & Bits cleaned it off perfectly.
After the race, we skipped the lines for the showers and headed back to the car. Corinne from Obstacle Racers NZ handed me a small bottle and a small bag. Inside the bag was a dehydrated cloth, one of those ones that magically expands with water like these dinosaur shape things I bought for my son at the $2 store. But unlike the few minutes amusement we got from watching $2 dinosaurs grow, the Pits & Bits bottle saved a lot of hassle.
It was fairly easy to use: squirt some on your body where you’re covered in mud, rub it around, and then towel it off – along with the mud. By the time I finished the race and gotten to the car, all the mud on my arms and legs had dried and caked over, so I used about 5/6s of a bottle for most of my body, only doing the dirty bits (and perhaps not all my pits and bits), and surprisingly it really was a waterless shower. The liquid foamed up and wiped away the mud with it. I was given the ‘antibacteral and antifragranced’ version, and it didn’t leave the skin sticky or scented.
While the liquid in the bottle itself was water free, as the label proclaims, water was required to squirt on the magic cloth to expand it for use. Although, using their cloth really isn’t required if you have your own towel or rag handy.
No doubt there’s some soapy chemical mutations going on in the mixture to cut through dirt, and my skin often flares up in life…. But in this case the Pits & Bits seemed fine on my skin without irritating it. More uses may be required though to see if it does have an effect in my case. Pits & Bits is paraben and alcohol free, and the pH has been designed to match that of healthy skin.
While I wouldn’t use Pits & Bits to replace a whole shower (I’m still going to jump under warm water to relax once I get home from a mud run), it definitely conveniently and quickly removed mud after charging through it on the obstacle field. While going camping, or perhaps just when I’ve been jumping around in a park and then have to look presentable again for work, Pits & Bits will be very useful.
