Question: I can not find a deorderant that does not cause me to break out into bumps that itch on my underarms.
I was wondering what is causing this? Is it a certain ingredeient? What do you suggest me trying?
Answer: Probably a local dermatitis reaction. Try deodordant soaps to minimize the need for the product. Also, avoid any of the anti-perspirant styles to remove this from the equation. Local cortisone at night would also help this.
