Review (1/5): Inconsistent/Changed Formula was Problematic
The first time I purchased this, I loved it. It felt great, smelled good, and worked nicely to get away from regular deodorant/antiperspirant. I was really pleased with the product - never had a problem with staining, only a very minor reddening of the skin on one armpit during the first week of use and no further skin reactions or anything other than a pleasant experience. You don't have to use much to get good results. One little bottle seemed to last forever!
My second purchase didn't go so well. The first thing I noticed was that where the first jar had been perfectly smooth, the new one seemed more gritty or clumpy. I let it warm some and mixed it around to improve consistency, and things seemed OK until I was doing laundry and realized I had ruined two nice shirts with disgusting, oily stains - something that never happened the first time around. This just seems weird to me, because I would assume the second jar with its grittier, dryer composition would be less oily.
I reduced the amount I was using even further and made sure it had absorbed more fully before putting on a shirt, and things seemed better for the next week. Then my armpits started breaking out with a painful, blistering rash. Again, something I never experienced with the first jar.
I threw the second one away, and won't be purchasing this product again. The first experience was great, but the changed formula--or perhaps it didn't change and it's just inconsistent across batches--was awful. It took a couple of weeks for the rash this caused to go away, which was painful, embarrassing and inconvenient.
