All of a sudden about two years ago I started turning up allergic to every anti-perspirant I tried, starting with the one I'd used for years without issue. I finally landed on Lume' for the deodorant and that actually worked best for me, but could not use their anti-perspirant products, just their deodorant, and constantly had wet pits that would still start smelling towards the end of the day. After speaking to a dermatologist, she recommended this Vanicream Anti-Perspirant Deodorant for Sensitive Skin. I checked several stores before finding it on Amazon. The first time I used it, it did burn a little and cause a small rash. I think my skin was still agitated from the last shave. It was a little dry/rough going on the first time, but now that first layer is off the product, it does go on smoothly without pulling at the skin. It's been almost a week, and I've had dry underarms no matter what I'm wearing since after the first application (which was in the morning). Use it at night after washing, and it works perfect! I did also change my shave cream to something more high quality, started moisturizing the skin there, and changed my razor to a brand new one geared toward sensitive skin and all that together seems to have solved my two year problem. No breakthrough sweat, no breakthrough smell. I feel like a normal person again and can stop avoiding other people for fear my deodorant has stopped working. So far, no rash, no burning, no itching either. I think... hopefully... this is finally the product that's going to work long term for me. I'm so glad the dermatologist recommended it! Read more
I’ve been looking for a fragrance free deodorant as I cannot tolerate fragrances at ALL! I’ve smelled the ones in store that say they are fragrance free but they smell horrid and of chemicals. I did some research online and people suggested this one. I ordered it and WOW! It’s truly scent free! I can sniff it up to my nose and nothing at all! I have been wearing it for a week now and it’s great with keeping sweat at bay just like normal deodorant. I will say for the size it’s a bit small but worth it if you have sensitive skin or need scent free. Read more
The media could not be loaded. My husband has super sensitive underarms and almost every deodorant he’s tried causes irritation, redness, or that annoying burning feeling. It’s also way “cleaner” than another deodorant he’s tried! This one is the first that keeps him dry all day without any reaction. It goes on smooth, has no strong scent, and doesn’t leave residue on clothes. If you’ve struggled with sensitivity or reactions to other formulas, this is absolutely worth trying. Gentle, effective, and truly made for sensitive skin. Read more
Dries quickly, lasts long. No rashes and notice way less discoloration when I use this regularly vs drugstore antiperspirant. No discomfort or slickness after application. Good at antiperspirant but does not stand up to stinky. I pair it with a non-antiperspirant deodorant scent I like and that works better for my sensitive skin than a scented antiperspirant. Read more
Ordered two of these deodorants. Overall I think the deodorant itself was good. Doesn’t cause skin irritation and does a good job with preventing smells and sweating. However, just a warning to purchasers to double check it hasn’t already been opened and used. 1 out of the 2 was previously opened missing the safety seal and very obviously had been used at least once.

I have contact dermatitis that flares up whenever and wherever and recently I have been getting bad rashes under my arm. I would use the ordinary toner as a deodorant but after getting this rash I wasn’t able to so I switched back to clinical strength deodorant because the heat in NY recently is bad. I used degree and secret clinical strength and the burning of it was horrible. Did some research and chat gpt recommended this to me which I was skeptical at first because it has no scent but it works so well. Since using it my rash is slowly going away, it does in fact help with odor and does not burn going on at all. Would definitely be getting the rest of my life, please never stop carrying this!!! The only con I can think of is at the end of the day when trying to bathe it leaves a weird film under my arm which is hard to take off with regular rag and soap. I need to use facial product and a silicone face scrub to scrub the day’s deodorant off to then reapply a fresh new coat before bed. Read more
This is my new deodorant/antiperspirant. I seem to be allergic to anything else, especially ones with scent. I have purchased lots of different ones, many without aluminum. However I love some of the scents out there. My armpits do not. I break out with a rash with many of them. This one works well and no rash. Definitely will be buying again. Read more
Pros: 1) Hasn't made me break out (yay!) 2) basically has no scent 3) does mask/minimize odor 4) Performs MUCH better than most natural/aluminum free deoderants I've tried (including Schmidt, Lume, Native, Hello, and the Dove 0% aluminum varieties) 5) Comparable to other gel deoderants Cons: 1) like most gel deoderants, it is wet so you have to allow a few minutes for it to air dry or it will give you pit stains. 2) if you close the cap and push it down all the way, it creates suction and pulls out extra product**Edit--resolved thanks to packaging redesign in 2024 3) I went through a tube of this fairly quickly because I had to reapply at least once a day. 4) Compared with the Secret Outlast gel deoderant it does not last as long--but if you're looking for aluminum-free, this is a better option. 5) Pricey compared with other options ______________ Edited: as of 2025, the deoderant container has been redesigned, and I could kiss the person who redesigned it! The cap no longer creates suction that results in large amounts of product squirting out, so you can now control how much product comes out of the tube. I was considering leaving this deoderant behind because of the waste, but with the package redesign I changed my mind. Read more
