What to do about under arm redness reaction from new deodorant?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Avoid fragrance: If you have a problem with multiple deodorants, it is likely that you are allergic to fragrance. There are a few fragrance-free products available. Tom's of maine makes a "sensitive" labeled deodorant that contains no added fragrance, just some plant oils. Another fragrance-free product is naturally fresh deodorant crystals. If you are not sensitive to antiperspirants try a fragrance-free one.
