Deodorant allergy -- relief?  

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
I recently used Tom's of Maine natural deodorant. In the past, I had a reaction to their lavender deodorant but thought the lavender might be the issue. Well, when I used the non-lavender one I had the same reaction -- red, itchy and inflamed skin.

So, I am wondering, what I can use for some relief? I tried some powder sort of like Gold Bond but it was useless. I stopped using the deodorant but the rash hasn't subsided.

(And if anyone has a deodorant recommendation I would appreciate it. I am allergic to several non-natural ones and now Toms).

Try something without propylene glycol? Don't know what to do about the rash. Aloe always makes me feel better.

I use a crystal spray and not stinkies here. I might try hydrocortisone cream if your skin isn't broken for some relief.

I get the same thing from Tom's. I didn't find anything to help it except washing it with cool water and time. I use Crystal Spray now and have no problems.
