Old Spice Red Zone (Anti-Perspirant & Deodorant)

OMGD are you kidding me, you shouldent have to go online to figure out why the product you paid for is causing you pain and irritation this stuff is not good. this is why i will really pay attention next time to what is in the stuff i buy. thanx Old Spice for waking me up to this world we live in which lets companies like OLD SPICE put stuff like this out DONT TRUST NO ONE IF YOU CANT TRUST THE PEOPLE WHO ARE SUPPOSE APPROVE IT TO BE SAFE AND IS CLEARLY NOT!!

I used this for about a week. Now I have little red bumps under my arm and down. Got some on my back. My skin has never had a reaction to anything like this ever And I'm 25. What do I use for best results to clear this up?

I can't believe that other people had the same problem from Old Spice. Ladies deodorant never worked for me. I decided to get Old Spice Sport..now I have sever blisters under my arms from this product. They are very painful..it makes me wonder what are they putting in this product to cause sever burns...it looks like a chemical burn. I never had any problems from any other deodorants. I learned my lesson I will never use this deodorant ever again and hopefully these blisters will go away soon. There are several complaints at the Old spice forum with people going though the samething. They don't respond to the complaint..they just remove the post...what does that tell ya.

I am a female, and I bought this deodorant because women's deodorant does not work very well for me unless I reapply it several times a day. I bought the clear one because I thought that gel deodorant was the answer....BOY WAS I WRONG! Every time I shave my pits, it STINGS when I put it on everyday for a week, and being female, I have to shave my pits a lot. Also, I have been having pain under my armpits and wondered if it was this deodorant that caused it, as I never had it when I used Dove. Now that I have read the reviews, I am convinced that this deodorant is the problem and I will be getting new deodorant ASAP. But on the positive side of things, I like the way it smells :)

"Smooth blast"? More like blistery inferno in my pits! A few years ago, I stopped using Old Spice because it gave me a painful rash. Last week, I temporarily forgot about this painful experience, and purchased a stick of High Endurance Smooth Blast. After a single day of use, my pits broke out in hives...again. It is incredibly uncomfortable. My advice to any potential customer: DO NOT PURCHASE THIS PRODUCT -- IT IS NOT SAFE! My advice to Old Spice: recall all of your defective products. Test each of your products on your CEO before distributing them to unsuspecting customers. If you plan to sell this product, at least sell the antidotal ointment to reduce the excruciating pit pain -- OUCH!

This product sucks. Have used it for a few days and have the itchiest painful rash all around my armpit, is blistery and red. After reading some of the reviews on here from other people I now know that I’m not alone. How can a company get away with this? What is in the deodorant that’s causing this rash in so many people? What can I do about it?

I am with most of the people. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT! Like almost of the other people, Old Spice products have given me open soars that look like blisters, and the pain is terrible. I stopped using this product within the last three-four days, yet the soars are still there as well as the pain. I have reported Old Spice to the Better Business Bureau as well as contacted Class Action Lawyers. I recommend all of the people that have had a bad experience with Old Spice to report them to the Better Business Bureau at: www.bbb.org We need Old Spice to get their problem products off the shelves or get the ingredients causing the problem out.

1 stars lol the review before mine says he loves it and it works... Did u not read the people who used it for years before they got the burns/rashes my arms r burning so bad that I can barely type. I've been looking for a new deoderent and am currently using Old Spice Swagger, I like it and it works great except when I wake up my arm pits smell aweful I mean AWEFUL not like B.O. I can't describe it. My arms developed a rash and I wasn't sure it was from this one or the Old Spice Aqua Reef but I only used that one for a week a month ago. Horrible pain, HUGE bumpy rash that was an open sore for a while. It was made worse by shaving one time in the shower them using the deoderent, but the main rash is whee there is no hair on the edges of my armpits. Good luck. TAKE PICTURES FOR FUTURE LAWSUIT..

wow i couldn't believe how many negative reviews there were of this product. i had to chime in. i have been using this product since it came out back when i was in mid high school and have used it through college till now (i am 23) and i've never had any problems with sweat, odor, or any weird rashes/bumps/redness of any kind. couldn't be more satisfied.

I have been using Old Spice High Endurance for about 6 months now with no problems until yesterday when a huge sore formed under my left arm. This is the first time that anything like this has happened to me. I cannot lift my arm because the sore is so painful and it looks as if it is getting bigger. I looked up the product to see if anybody else was having the same experience and I found this site. I wish I would have found this site earlier because the sore is so painful that I had to call in a sick day at work. I was reading the ingredients of several Old Spice products and noticed that the Old Spice High Endurance Game Day has an ingredient (PP3 Myristyl Ether). I tried to find any information that I could on this ingredient with very little luck. The sites i found only warned of using on an open wound. Also there is an ingredient (Aluminum zirconium trichlorohydrex) that could possibly cause cancer. There is no way that im using this product again and I strongly suggest that anyo... Read more

Wowwww can't move my left arm, it's covered in one huge scab and a burn that looks so bad and deep I don't know what's going on. Off to the doctor in the morning so hopefully I can find something that works. DON't buy this product or ur arm pits will literally burn off.

WOW!!! DO NOT USE THIS, I got a very bad sore under my arm for using this, and its so painful i couldnt move my arm. This stuff will burn your skin. How is old spice able to sale this? There should be a lawsuit brought against them.

I just tryed Old Spice High Endurance for 3 or 4 days as I started getting bumps under my arms. Then a week later the bumps are still getting worse they have turned red and hurt very bad. It has been about two weeks now and the bumps are still red and hurting but the pain is slightly subsiding. I am wondering if I should go to a doctor. I called the 1-800-667-7582 number on the back of the old spice deodorant but they were of no help! I am hoping the red bumps and pain go away soon. I would not use Old Spice High Endurance pure sport deodorant ever again. The red painfull bumps are not worth it.

I bought Old Spice high endurance GAMEDAY last week. DO NOT USE!!!!!!!!!! My armpits look like somebody used a flamethrower on it. My skin was peeling like a warm banana. the skin was very black and burned so bad it felt like my armpits were laying on a skillet. I warn everyone DO NOT USE EVER THIS IS THE WORST PRODUCT I HAVE EVER SEEN.

Yeah. I've got two red painful pits. Bad product. Weird how it works fine for awhile (weeks, years, etc.) and then causes a burn.... reaction with soap maybe??? anyway, DO NOT BUY

Old Spice deodorant burnt my skin and caused peeling of the skin. The burn spread a little in the armpit area. Don't buy the roll-on or any of their deodorant.

Add me to the armpit rash/ welt list (including the part about nothing wear hair is). Whats odd is it happened about a year ago so i threw the remainder under my sink. Months later I was in a bind for some deodorant so i went back to the Old Spice menace under my sink and now problems. I figure, ok, I just couldn't handle it the first time so now I'm good. I use the rest of that stick and everything's cool. So when I run out I hesitate for a second to buy it at the store then figure I'll be ok. One day after using the new stick the huge rash and welts in my armpit springs forth. Another interesting observation is that when looking closely at the rash, especially near the edges where it's not as severe, you can see that the rash are actually come out of individual hair follicles, unless there is a full grown hair coming out of it then it's fine. For some reason the Old Spice only affects the peach fuzz tiny hair follicles and not the full ones.

Yes Old Spice Red Zone is terrible and will cause a rash. I have used many different deodorants and never had a problem until OS Red Zone. Of course I discontinued and tried a variety of products to heal the rash. I had great success and have healed it through Gold Bond Body Power. I applied it 6 times a day for a week and the rash has disappeared. I also called Proctor & Gamble to complain and they claim they never heard of anything like this and I referred them to this web site. I hope this helps to stop anyone form using this product and that my fellow rash sufferers can find relief.

I've been using the old Spice deodorant for a while with no problems except that i still sweat and so I have to apply it twice a day. So i finally decided to try the antiperspirant deodorant from old spice and within a day I broke out with a horrible rash. I immediately stopped the use but now I can't lift my arms without terrible pain, because the skin is peeling and a scab is forming so everytime I reach for something the scab tears and its so painful. ANyway avoid this antiperspirant deodorant, i don't know what is in it that causes the burning but the regular deodorant without the antiperspirant doesn't have this effect on me.

I just started using Old Spice High Endurance Red Zone about a week ago, and I recently have developed an extremely painful rash. As others have mentioned, it has odly enough formed a circle around my armpit, avoiding the hair area, although that area is peeling. I have immidiately discontinued use of the product, but I don't know what to do because all other deoderants clearly state, "Do not use on broken skin." I'm pretty sure a rash and peeling counts as broken skin. For now, I'm just using AXE and Right Guard to keep me smelling good, but hopefully this will go away soon. I urge everyone out there to take legal action, and DO NOT USE ANY OLD SPICE PRODUCTS!!!!!!! They should be shut down for keeping this on the shelf. \ Happy Healing.

Old Spice Anti-Perspirant gave me a rash too. For the people that are still using it, get rid of it asap. I've been using this product for 2 years before and it worked fine until one day, it gave me a terrible rash and it has been bugging me for more than 6 months now. If anyone has a care for this or a substitute anti-perspirant product please let us know!

In a long list of people suffering, i would like to join the gang. Last evening after applying the red zone clear deo in a matter of minutes my armpits were on FIRE. Felt like a million ants having a BBQ. Had to get in the shower right away to cool it down. When i got out n looked in the mirror there was this ring of fire under both my arm pits. Did not have any anti allergic meds at home, applied some after shave which cooled the sensation down and helped me fall asleep. This morning, the redness is still there and the skin is starting to peel off looks darn ugly. This is bad stuff period.

When I put this stuff on I thought it wasnt that bad except sometimes the smell can really scare you away but it worked

I just now put this deoderant on, and knew right away some thing was up because my armpits started burning. I immediately wiped the shit off and came here to look up reviews, and what do I see but the same thing happening to over people. I threw my stick out and will for now on only use speed stick. Some one needs to start a class action suit against Old Spice for putting harmful shit like this on the market.

I've literally used this product since I was 13, im now 21. I always wondered why my arm pits were dark since I shower daily. I always used the clear type, and then I thought that was the reason why they were dark, but now that I read the comments, I know that it was a chemical burn. Just recently,meaning 1week ago, I started using their solid type and it's the worse thing ever. My pits severely sting, and I see sores developing, therefore I stopped using the product today before it got worse. Seriously, do not use any of these products. The darkness can go away or atleast diminish if you use a different kind of solid white deodorant, it's kinda like arm pit whitenin.

Like all of the previous comments before...I experienced the same thing. It burned my armpits. I had severe burns that lasted for weeks, where my skin peeled. Not too mention, that it seems to last less than 4 hours. I would love to be part of a class action on this one. Do not buy this.

I used this stuff and it has permanently destroyed my armpits. I have not used this stuff in over two years and still have extremly sensitive pits. I can shower and start smelling within minutes. My skin still peels. I have been to dermatologist and they have taken skin samples and found it is not a fungus or anything like that. They give creams that work only when applied after cream is gone the red, irritated skin comes back and peels off.

I have used Old Spice High Endurance for over 16 years. On Saturday December 5 2009 it burned the crap out of me. The next day all of my armpit was dark and I had deep sores on both arms. today 4 days later I was able to raise one arm over my head but the skin on my other arm is clinging together and hurts like hell when I try to raise it. Every day the skin is peeling off my arm when I was. some of it is just hanging on. I complained on the Procter & Gamble web site and sent them pictures. They offered to send me a coupon for more of this product. NO WAY am I using this product again! I rate it a zero. This stuff is Dangerous. If any of you take up legal action please let me know. Email me at [email protected]

Three days after using this my underarms started to hurt. One day later, I had open sores that took 2 weeks to heal. During those two weeks I was in a lot of pain. Spent many evenings on the couch in a wife beater shirt with my arms open. As you know, skin gets tacky when it heals and in the arm pit area, it sticks together reopening the wound. My advice is for old spice to pull this product. If they don't, I'd be on-board for any class action lawsuits that should arise because this product is NOT SAFE.

This piece of garbage burned my armpits. I hate it. Old Spice should be taken off the shelves.

Please call Dr Kervorchian!!!!I had to go to the doctor today because of this crap. I have at least a dozen sores under my pits after using RED ZONE clear gel. WARNING WARNING This is dangerous stuff. Will someone get an attorney involved? This is class action material!!!!

this thing is the worst deodarant i ever used in my life!!!!!!!!!!!!!! after 3 days i had a rash on both of my arm pits, it hurts like hell!!!!!!!!!!!! u cnt imagine how bad it feels during football practice. i recomend for no1 2 ever buy this piece of shyt!!!! fukkkkkkk redzone

As the reviews indicate, Old Spice Red Zone will burn your pits beyond comprehension, Old Spice should rename this product "Raging Red Pits" because thats what it leaves you with. I need a deoderent right, so I come home after buying it and apply it. The third day I had red sours and peeling skin. You should buy this product unless you enjoy severe pain.

I can't even believe what this stuff did to me, i'm in so much pain I can't even move my arms, my armpits look bright red with skin peeling cuts and rashes all over it kills, MY ARMPITS LOOK LIKE THE COLOR OF THE STICK I USED BRIGHT RED, TALK ABOUT A RED ZONE I HAVE 2 RED ZONES UNDER MY ARMPITS, whoever created this is an idiot go burn yourself with this junk, now i have to go to the doctors and get serious meds for this. I can hardly move my arms looks like someone cut my armpits with a knife bright red and almost bleeding cus skins peeling off and pus. I'm calling the company right now as I sit here barley able to type...be aware use speed stick or something. TOTAL GARBAGE!!! It will burn you, if you even saw my armpits you would not even believe this its sooo bad cant move, cant work, cant do anything, nothing physical so much pain! I cant wait till i talk to someone at the company about this i'm gunna tell them off so fast, OLD SPICE RED ZONE SUCKS!

I agree xtremepain, this was a terrible product. It feels like they put Listerine in this deoderant.

THE ONLY REASON I RATED THIS PRODUCT WAS BECAUSE I HAD TO IN ORDER TO GET MY REVIEW TO BE ACCEPTED. I WOULD HAVE RATED IT BELOW ZERO, THIS IS THE WORST PRODUCT ! I WISH WE WOULD HAVE RESEARCHED THIS BEFOREHAND BUT HOW DO YOU EVER KNOW? THE MFG SHOULD HAVE PUT A WARNING OUT THAT THIS COULD HAPPEN. I WAS ASTOUNDED WHEN I READ THE OTHER REVIEWS... MY SON (AGE 14) USED THIS DEODORANT 3 DAYS AGO. HE DEVELOPED A SEVERE RASH, BURNING LIKE DARK RED WELTS UNDER BOTH ARM PITS. SUCH PAIN AND DISCOMFORT WE ENDED UP TAKING HIM TO THE ER. IT LOOKS LIKE OTHER PEOPLE DESCRIBED -CIGARETTE BURNED AND HOT RED WELTS. ANTIBIOTIC STERIODS WERE PRESCRIBED. I AM FURIOUS WITH OLD SPICE AND AM CONSIDERING TAKING LEGAL ACTION AGAINST THEM. WOULD NEED MORE PEOPLE TO COME FORWARD. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN TO ANYONE!!

This is my favorite deodorant. Any deodorant that lists aluminum in the ingredients can cause cancer, and some old spice products do. I stick with the red zone aqua reef. It smells great, and contains no aluminum. The only problem with it is that it was tested on animals, but there are no good deodorants that are not tested on animals.

Red zone is a very strong deodorant. It has that CORE stuff that releases scent throughout the day which makes it a powerful deodorant. Although very strong I would not recommend using any other scented products such as cologne, body spray or aftershave cuz the scents will clash

Old Spice deoderant is probably the best stuff when it comes to long lasting and smelling good. But it is not made for people with sensitive skin. It is probably best if you find another deoderent because it will burn and leave rashes on you sometimes. But if your going to use it dont put it on before you go in a pool, it will burn like hell.

I don't even know what to say to that. Nilla Wafer?

Yeah and tell your boyfriend when you get their you just had your fill of tapioca pudding.

I have been using this for years. The smell is great and keeps strong for a long time, but the only downside is that it does burn your skin.Just recently I've had to stop using this since I've developed 2 small burns from it and it stings a lot. Just think about it before buying, one day this can happen to you like it did to me.

I used the Old Spice Red Zone Clear Gel Antiperspirant/Deodorant, and within two weeks developed massive chemical burns under both my armpits. By massive chemical burns, I mean open sores, redness...it hurt to move.... I have used the invisible solid, and that one is fine, but there's something about the clear gel that is not quite right.

Had this one too. Very similar to the High Endurance.

i've used the red zone invisible solid for at least a few years now.  never had a problem with it at all.  i dunno where all this talk about burning armpits is coming from, unless it's from something other than the invisible solid.  my biggest problem has been trying to decide which scent.

Recently, I bought Old Spice Red Zone. The burning is for sure true! Within a couple of days I noticed my underarms were feeling a bit tingly, uncomfortable, and itchy. Then, the severe burning began, under both arms! They left HUGE red marks and it is hard to move my arms. Please be aware of this caution! Old Spice Red Zone is terrible! Please do not make the same mistake I did! You will regret it!

This stuff is awful and should be banned.  Poor hubby tried this stuff because I forgot to buy his regular brand and now I feel guilty because he had to endure it.  It absolutely stinks and it caused his underarms to turn red and burn terribly.  He is the type that just grabs up the first anti-perspirant/deoderant he sees on the store shelf so he has used many different brands and he has never had a problem with any of the others.  But this stuff stunk so bad I was actually worried I would have to throw out the shirt he was wearing.  I couldn't imagine that scent would ever come out.  It was probably a week before all the redness and pain he was experiencing went away from this awful product.    I am shocked that a brand name such as Old Spice would be this terrible.

Old Spice Red Zone Anti-Perspirant Deodorant DOES NOT CONTAIN DIPROPYLENE GLYCOL! On the other hand, Old Spice Red Zone Deodorant does. There is a difference between an anti-perspirant/deodorant and just a deodorant. This product will keep me dry, though, maybe too dry. I give this product a 4 star rating becuse, I have a difficult time even washing this product from my armpits the next morning after wearing this, though this is probably true with all anti-perspirants that contain aluminum salts, which is most all. This is a great product for when I know I will be working up quite a sweat in hot weather. It works and pretty much all the scents are awsome, probably the best out there, I think they even make unscented. I like After Hours, or Aqua Reef the best. The entire Red Zone line is designed with complimentary products, body wash, body spray, deodorant and anti-perspirant/deodorant.

This is turly the worst stuff I have every had the mispleasure of using. I burned my armpits so bad I couldn't wear anything for weeks. I would warn anyone that is thinking of using this product to think twice prior to using it. I have a very vivid memory of how painful this was!! I will never ever use this product again and will tell everyone I know about my experience with this product. It should banned from the market and the company should have to pay all the medical bills for all the people that have ended up spending money to fix the problems this product has created. I'm very mad, just in case you couldn't tell!! Old Spice Red Zone Aqua Reef BAD STUFF never use it this deodorant.
