Recently your deodorant has caused several of the armpits of my shirts to bleach out to a different color. Never had this problem in the past what’s going on with your product?! I’m afraid to even use this anymore! Your company should at least post a warning about this issue. A lot of pissed off people and a lot of ruined expensive clothes! If this is doing damage to our clothes what is it doing to our skin/body when it’s used?!

The Mitchum Unscented deodorant claims on the back that it is gentle on skin (which it is) and wont stain clothes (which it does!). About $200 worth of my nice tops have been destroyed because of this false advertising! There is no way to remove the white marks and its really annoying me. Do not say you can provide something when you clearly can”t! I would like this matter to be solved or I will go further with my complaint. Please contact me through email. Natasha.

The last 4 Mitchum solid deodorants I have purchased have broken off in huge pieces. Can’t return with no receipt.

The fact that this product breaks off and is impossible to reattach just after a few uses is extremely frustrating. So you excuse it and throw it away thinking, it must have sat on the shelf to long or maybe it was a bad batch, ( the person in charge of that batch was just having a not so good day, I can relate to that). So know, lets bring out the second tube. And guess what happens? You guessed! It also broke apart as well. This has happened numerous times! If there is a problem with the product, let the consumer know, it is our hard earned money that keeps you in business and keeps us from not making much of a stink to the rest of the world due to the crumbling effect.

The ball moves but nothing comes out it feels as though its gone solid inside this has happened before so this time rather than throw away the product, I thought I would contact you, I would liketo post it back to you as I really would like to know what has happened to this, Its the best deodorant My husband has ever used and has been using for many years, I also use the ladies product,

Stick breaks after a couple of uses. Most recent solid after 1 USE. Have used the solid for 15 years. And in the last year I have had a 100% breakage rate. Thye last various amounts of time (Never anywhere near using the stick entirely), most recently, the stick has been used 4 times and is now useless. For the previous 29 years I NEVER had that problem.

So the mitchem stick is the biggest failure of under arm protection you can use. First, when I exercise, the remnants of the stick that I applied on my under arm will form in little white balls from the sweat, and its so humiliating when I lift up my arm and you see this white thing on my under arm. Second, it gives of on your clothes and leave that dreaded white stain, and its not after a few months, nooo, its after a few weeks, then that stain begins to form. Third, it still gives off a bad odour in a very short time, 5 hours tops i would say, after I applied it on. Now as for the roll on, its a dream, it doesn’t stink, it doesn’t give of on my clothes yet, and it doesn’t lave those horrible white balls on my arm.

Why isn”t this on the news and taken off the shelves?? I too am another loyal LAB RAT consumer of Mitchum Deodorant and have been using it for 20 years. Purchased a new bottle of roll on, and after use, my armpits were painfully, swollen to the point they apppeared to have puckered, It felt like a the sting of a 1000 scorpions and looked like someone took a belt sander to my underarms! This is by far the most pain I have felt. I couldn”t take my bra or shirt off by myself it was that bad. My panicing made me sweat which made it even worse. This is no laughing matter. Took a bath in an attempt to neutralize the swelling, it only helped while I was in the water. After a bath, I rsearched the ingredients, Wikipedia notes: Mitchum is a brand of antiperspirant-deodorant, launched in 1970 by Revlon. It is widely known for its marketing slogan, “So effective you can skip a day”. The gel version of their product used to contain 20% of the anti-perspirant Aluminum Zirconium Tetrachlorohydrex Gly. The formula has since been changed to Aluminum Sesquichlorohydrate, and the slogan “So effective you could skip a day” has been dropped. Slogan should read, the pain is so bad, you wish your arms would fall off! Next I looked up: Aluminum Sesquichlorohydrate. Adverse side effects, toxic elements, alzheimer”s, cancer, renal warning. Ok enough for me, I”ll rub raw onions under my arms before I use this product again. If I lived in NY, I”d stand outside REVLON OFFICE and show the world my rashy pits! I do not recommend this product!

They took the place of the powder fresh ~ bad move! the cool dry (like sandpaper) and gel (makes you wet for hours) are horrible products and the powder fresh (when you could find it) was fabulous!!! I would buy a case of the powder fresh if I could find it… the other stuff is garbage! I have been a loyal customer for more than 15 years… Beware! Sincerely, Pamela.
