Missed all the marks
This deodorant didn’t do anything for me. It was really kind of a bummer in my underarms because I felt like I may have smelled a little worse after just a few hours of having it on then I normally would’ve with nothing at all. I love everything else by Vani that I’ve ever purchased, and am totally bummed that they’ve discontinued the actual antiperspirant. It’s a no from me, but give it a go because at this price it’s worth trying!

Deodorant
Wish I had bought only one of these or skipped it all together. Very sticky and on very hot days, did not protect at all. Throwing all 3 in the garbage. Total waste of money!

Beware.......Contains Irritant!!!
I was excited to order this product because the reviews on various sites are really positive. However, shortly after I began to use the deodorant, my underarms started to itch and burn severely. This deodorant contains sodium hydroxide, which is a known skin irritant that can result in burns and lacerations on the skin. After using this, I felt like my armpits had been set on fire! I'm not even joking, it really does feel someone took a match and lit up my armpits! If you have VERY sensitive skin and lots of allergies and sensitivities like I do, please avoid purchasing this deodorant. Also, this deodorant is a gel like substance, so after applying it, your underarms feel very wet until it fully dries. I have been searching for a reliable deodorant for years it seems and I have not found anything yet. I cannot use anything with aluminum, fragrances, or other skin irritants. Due to my sensitive skin, I have to apply hydrocortisone cream before using most deodorants to prevent severe itching and burning. I did that before using this Vanicream deodorant, but it did not help subside anything, I still felt the burns, itching, and I was left with a rash. I am trying to remain hopeful about my deodorant search, but it is not looking good because most companies use some type of harsh chemical to manufacture deodorant. I am just hoping that this incident does not leave me with anymore scars. I am a Black woman, so when I get scars, they turn very dark and I definitely am not about to put fade cream under my arms because my skin would probably peel off if I did that. Being me is very depressing at times because my body is extremely sensitive, I cannot use too many products, and if I do, they cannot contain any fragrances or harsh chemicals. The strange thing is that I can wear perfume and it does not bother my skin......weird! Like a very smart nurse practitioner once told me, there are other people in the world like me, I just have never met them :).
