Shower Pill Update

Shower Pill Update | Shark Tank Season 9

ByAndrew Smith

Former athletes Justin Forsett, Wale Forrester, and Wendell Hunter struggled to find time for showers in their busy schedules, often leading to less-than-fresh feelings. This challenge inspired them to create Shower Pill, body wipes designed to provide a quick and refreshing clean, similar to a real shower. These wipes are perfect for busy people on the go. Let’s see if they managed to secure a deal with any of the sharks in our Shower Pill update and pitch recap.

If you’re short on time, here’s a quick overview of what happened to Shower Pill after Shark Tank. 

Justin, Wale, and Wendell entered Shark Tank Season 9 to pitch their body wipes business, seeking $300,000 for 10% equity. They left the tank without a deal, as none of the sharks found the business worthy of investment.

In terms of a Shower Pill update, they rebranded to Hustle Clean, brokered strategic partnerships with NFL players, and are currently generating $4 million in annual sales revenue.

They sought an investment to expand marketing and distribution, aiming to make their convenient body wipes a staple for anyone needing a quick, effective clean without a shower.

The Shower Pill is designed for busy people who don’t always have time for a shower.

These pre-moistened body wipes offer a one-step cleaning solution and are extra thick compared to standard wipes. 

Their germ-killing formula eliminates 99.9% of bacteria, protecting users from sweat-related infections. 

Unlike harsh chemical wipes, Shower Pill uses a hypoallergenic formula with aloe vera and vitamin E to soothe and moisturize the skin.

The wipes come in unscented, fresh, and lavender scents.

Originally created for athletes, ShowerPill’s benefits now extend to campers, travelers, and gym-goers. 

Each wipe costs $0.14 to produce and sells for $0.99, with a ten-pack priced at $9.99.

In 2016, they did $300,000 in sales, projected $600,000 for 2017, and aimed for $2 million in 2018. Gross margins are 60%, with all profits reinvested into the business.

However, during their pitch, the entrepreneurs struggled with their financial details, which confused the sharks. 

Mark Cuban pointed out their lack of financial knowledge and exited the deal. 

Robert Herjavec praised their talent but criticized their execution; he, too, dropped out of the deal. 

Barbara Corcoran and guest shark Alex Rodriguez followed suit, suggesting they hire a CFO. 

Lori Greiner seemed interested but ultimately declined. Justin, Wale, and Wendell eventually left Shark Tank without a deal. 

Let’s find out where the company stands now in our Shower Pill update.

Despite leaving Shark Tank without a deal, Shower Pill experienced significant success. 

Our Shower Pill update found that they rebranded in 2018 to Hustle Clean and partnered with NFL players like Steve Smith and Ronnie Lott. 

Since airing, Hustle Clean quickly saw $15,000 in sales and surpassed $1 million in sales by 2019. 

Their product line expanded to include new scents and face wipes, now available at Target and Amazon.

Hustle Clean also launched philanthropic efforts, such as sports scholarships for underserved youths, and provided hygiene products in disaster-stricken areas. 

They continue to serve athletes, campers, and individuals with limited access to showers, demonstrating a successful evolution from their original concept. 

According to our Shower Pill update research, the company has grown to over $4 million in annual sales.

Despite not getting a deal on Shark Tank, we are calling this Shower Pill update a success.
