My deodorant makes me itch! Am I allergic?

 
My deodorant makes me itch like crazy! My mom said it might be the fragrance, so I tried an unscented kind but that didn’t help. Could I be allergic to it?

 

You may be. Most of the time, this kind of reaction is caused by a sensitivity to chemicals creating the scent in your stick, says Dr. Vivan W. Bucay, a dermatologist and assistant clinical professor at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio, Texas. And those labeled unscented may still feature some fragrances that’ll bother sensitive skin. So avoid that annoying itch with a hypoallergenic and fragrance-free product, like Tom’s of Maine Fragrance-Free Deodorant Stick or Almay Clear Gel Fragrance Free.

I started developing rashes under my armpits a few years ago. After doing some research I decided to switch to an all-natural, aluminum free deodorant. I experimented with a few but ultimately decided to go with Lavilin since my body responded best to that brand. I'm happy with it so far - no more rashes and long-lasting!!

Whenever I shave my armpits, they get really red and itchy. Could I be allergic? It's not a problem with my legs, though.

My armpits get sweaty and REALLY wet. Even when the day just warms up to 60 degrees! I hate it, and I have tried Degree Strength deodorant but I haven't really seen a difference. I am going for a checkup soon to the doc's, so should I ask about it ? Any advice? I hate having such wet underarms!! It's really uncomfortable and annoying! Thank u sooo much!!

Hey girl, a checkup is the perfect opportunity to ask your doc about excessive sweating.  Mabs ask if he can recommend a different deoderant/anti-perspirant that works well.  Good luck!

MOD!!
My hands are ALWAYS sweaty and I have no idea why. It's not like I'm always hot or nervous. But even if I'm cold...my hands are sweaty! Why? And how can I stop it.
