It stings! Gave me bumps!
Don’t get me wrong I love sukin products but after using the natural deodorant on second day! I was stinging with bumps! I always use BODY CRYSTALS natural deodorant and swear by it but after it got confiscated at the airport coz I put it in my hand carry as it was over 100grams I was upset so next natural deodorant I thought could buy at airport is sukin as I use their natural hydration facial spray all the time. Sorry Sukin you need to come up and change this deodorant as it’s happening to a lot of people who use it and have bad allergic reaction. I’ve never had any reactions to anything but this is the first and last I will use it ever!

Burns Skin
Smells lovely & worked fine but has quite badly burnt under both my arms once I started to sweat. Stopped using for a few weeks then tried again to confirm that it was this product & once again, burnt irritated skin under both arms! :-(

Smells pretty, but burns skin :/
I love Sukin, and knew of this deodorant for a long time, however I was skeptical of how effective it would be considering it was still a natural deodorant and my previous one didn't really do anything. In any case, I trusted the brand so just decided to go for it a couple of days ago. I used the deodorant at night the first time and it was really great - I woke up smelling great and still felt dry. That day, I showered, and reapplied, then 3 or so hours later I noticed stinging coming from both armpits (once I began to sweat I think) :/ I look...
Read moreed in the mirror and saw a red patch in both underarms that look and feel like burns. I washed it off and applied aloe vera gel... Disappointing being a Sukin product and the smell is also so nice :( ...I thought I found a good one!

Ouch!!!!!
I usedthis product years ago and had no problems. I bought a bottle to. Start using it again and within 2 hours was washing it off as it was burning my armpits. I now have welt like red marks under my armpits and they feel like they're on fire. Sukin must have changed the ingredients since i last used it. Won't be trying it again!!

I love my Sukin
I suffered from itchy armpits for a long time but since using Sukin deodorant I don't. No rashes or discomfort at all. Pleasant smelling and no BO. I love it

Smells pleasant but not totally effective
I love that this product is chemical free and especially contains no aluminium. But the downside is that it doesn't work as effective as a full blown chemical deodorant however, that is the trade off you pay for using a natural product. I think it still works OK plus it smells really nice.
The spray pump action seems to go a long way and lasts for months plus it doesn't leave any residue on your clothes.

dont use if you are sensitive
I use many of Sukin products. However the deodorant gives me a nasty rash in my arm pits. Tried several times but found the same issue. Very painful. Suggest dont use this product. All other. Sukin products are great.

DON’T RISK IT!!
I used this product for about 2 weeks (after doing a test patch) with no issues. Ended up with a huge painful rash. I’ve been on anti fungal and steroid creams for the past 4 months and am now having my underarms scrapped to be sent for further testing. Nothing seems to be working. Please don’t risk using this product.

Don’t recommend.
Long term Mitchum deodorant user but like and use Sukin products so thought I’d give it a crack. My skin is well worn, and not what I’d describe as sensitive. First day, no worries and I didn’t smell, great. Second day, burning rashes under both pits, so tingly and sore. In Sukin’s defence it does say to do a test patch, but really who’s got time for that. Be careful, and shall your pits never burn like the fury I’ve endured.

Take care
Having used (and loved) other Sukin products, I changed from Dove deodorant, which I had been using for years. Ok to start, but after a couple of weeks, noticed small raised lumps under both arms. Stopped using it for a while, used topical creams on the rash, which improved considerably, and then restarted deodorant. Bad mistake! I don't usually have reactions to products, so this is quite surprising, but after reading some of the reviews I can only put my rash down to this. Disappointing because I like the fact that it is natural, and contains no nasties. Back to Dove for me..

Worst product ever!
Worst product I've ever used. Had rashes on my underarms and was really itchy for a long time. Never had such a bad reaction from any product in my entire life. Had to chucked it out. What a waste!

Extreme Caution!!!
I use lots of Sukin products and love them but this is so bad it shouldn’t be on the market. Created a painful rash and my skin isn’t normally sensitive

Really Good
Alot of negative reviews on this product but I have found it incredible. No skin irritation (and my skin can be sensitive), no stains on clothes. Yes it is very wet on application and it doesn't keep you dry (you still sweat) but I have no smell!!!! Amazing, I've been using it for the last couple of weeks while the weather has been hot and no smell. I used to use Body Crystal roll on but I still smelled with that. I think as we are all different and react differently it is just a case of it works for some and not others but my experience ha...
Read mores been great. Not mad on the scent (I think Vanilla with lavender and mandarin is not a great combination) but, it's not strong but I don't smell of B.O. which is a plus. I can handle sweat but not stink!Purchased in February 2022 at Coles Supermarkets for $7.
Oils stained my clothes.
I normally use The Body Crystal All Natural Deodorant but it was out at the time - so I got this. It smells good, but is annoying to put on (drips down your arm) so need to be practically naked to use it. Then after a day of wear, walking home in the heat with a packpack, usually I get a lil mark but this literally made my shirt this BROWN colour under the pits. Had to change my shirt. I'm 27 and this has NEVER happened to me before.
Caused painful rash
Love Sukin products and would recommend all that I have used so far, except this deodorant - it doesn’t work and caused a very red raw painful rash after 4 days.
Stay Away
After 2 weeks use my armpits were ablaze with a rash; tiny itchy red bumps. My doctor and I went through three different steroid creams ( $$ ), of ever increasing strength, to no effect. Finally I saw a dermatologist
( $$$$ ) who described my condition ( long word I cannot recall ) and put me on a new 3 month regime ( $$$ ).
Eventually cured. This product is laden with essential oils which are known skin irritants, possibly the cause? I have never had a serious skin issue. Previously I used Dove Original for 30+ years with no problems!!

Doesn't last long at all
This feels quite fine on my skin but doesn't last long time. I don't sweat too much but this doesn't last even half a day at work.
stinging and rash
i used this deodorant thinking it would be fine and it resulted in my arms stinging so much i nearly cried and then they got a rash which also became quite worrying

Excellent for sensitive skin
I have been using Sukin deodorant for several years. It is fragrance free and excellent for me as I have very sensitive skin. I have given it 4 stars because with the packaging they use (it’s excellent with a screw top removable spray bottle) they should have a refill bottle -better for the environment. Regardless, it’s an excellent product.

I love this deodorant.
I love this deodorant. Smells good, it contains lavender which is my favourite ingredient in everything. It does not irritate my sensitive skin. I used up 2 bottle of it, and I continue buying it.

Lovely scent but questionable for use on skin
Sukin Deodorant is made from natural oils of lavender, tangerine and mandarin. Those are really lovely scents but not really very good for the skin, so I don't use it every day. Its selling point is that it is natural and aluminium & paraben free. This is definitely not an antiperspirant, it only masks the odour from your usual amount of sweat. My skin can tolerate the ingredients but many can't, so I am not surprised to read the negative reviews here. You really need to test it first to see if you can take it. I only use it at home or when run...
Read morening errands, as I prefer to avoid aluminium. But if I am attending any work or social function I definitely use a real antiperspirant. Research on the components of Lavender oil (like linalool) shows they can damage skin even in low concentrations and sensitise skins, as can Mandarin and Tangerine. There are 'ingredient dictionaries' online that will explain all you need to know about these ingredients, if you are interested. Realistically this is probably a product that is best avoided but I just love the smell, and use it only a few days per week and 'so far so good'.- 7 reviews

Love it + smells amazing
I stumbled across this product and have not looked back. I used it pretty much everywhere as I hate sweating. Even use it on my face and it smells divine. I am on to my second bottle.

Works and doesn’t irritate
I have eczema and was always getting rashes from normal antiperspirants/deodorants as well as feeling “blocked up”. So decided to switch to natural deo. For about a week I did notice some slight BO but after that there was significantly less BO than I’d get with normal antiperspirants. Now at the end of the day there is hardly any odour at all.
I just ran out and used QV naked aluminium free cos it was in my cupboard, and my armpits smelt within a few hours. So it’s definitely not a case of me just getting used to my own ponk. Lol.
No mor...
Read moree armpit rashes, and while it takes a bit of getting used to the lack of dryness an antiperspirant offers, I feel like my system is more “free” or able to detox, or something? Plus it’s inexpensive. Will definitely purchase again.- 2 reviews
Best natural deodorant ive used- be patient with it
The product gave me a reaction for the first 4 days and i got some small pimples under my arms, they have now cleared and i dont get any reaction. Most other natural products and even antiperspirants i have found i still get an odour, but with this products even on a hot day i havent had any bad smells at all.
Smells good, but hurts!
I like the smell and the price point was good. I like other Sukin products as well....BUT, this deodorant caused a painful rash under both arms. I would recommended most Sukin products but not this one...
