    I have used this for years as well as found other antipersps didn't work at all.
    I have sensitive skin and have never had a problem. I've used the roll on and spray but mostly use the stick so I don't have to wait for ages for it dry , as PP said it does crumble after a while, still think it's worth it though.

    PS I tried to print that coupon but it comes out massive and I don't know how to shrink it . My printer just goes to massive even if I cange the size of the picture :confused:

    Another one who is very happy with it! I wouldn't say I have particularly sensitive skin, but I have found that if I use it straight after shaving my skin can feel a little sore; if I shave in the evening, it's fine in the morning.

    I have really sensitive skin and have used Mitchum for over 10 years now! I wouldn't waste money buying anything else as a bottle of the roll on lasts me ages as you only need to roll it over your armpits once! Hope this is helpful.

    Well, I've been meaning to post for a while because recently I've had two Mitchum sticks just break off! I hadn't screwed them up too far either, just enough I could apply it without the plastic scratching my skin.

    And they weren't that old either!

    As a deodorant, I find it very good, but I'm not sure I'm going to buy it again because I'm so fed up of it breaking so I lose half of it!

    I love the smell of the Powder fresh in the bottle...but....
    I'm not a heavy perspirer but used Mithum since puberty because my sister and mother did. Recently howver I have found it becoming less effective. I really sweat very litle apart from the few days before my period, (most of the rest of the time I could probably even go without deoderant!) but I'm findig those three days I do need it to be effective it ust isn't being and is not smelling nice at all. I've had better resuts with a cheaper bog standard deoderant recently....I wish I could get another cheapy that smelt of baby powder :(

    Sure Crystal Pink;) Smells DIVINE:D

    OP before you try Mitchum try Sure Crystal Pink. I've used Mitchum I didn't think it any better than Sure.
  • I use mitchum.. the powder fresh roll on. I have very sensitive skin and all aerosols and most other deodorants bring me out in a bad rash :cry:

    Mitchum is the best i have used:T
    Trix-ellen is a life saver and a wee angel!:T
    For those of you that dont know I have arthritis...;)


    Oh and Im laughing out loud :p

    Is this meant to be more effective than regular Sure. I have used this before and I find it useless. The best I have found so far is Sanex 48hr, but this struggles in summer.

    Its not so much that I feel smelly, its the smell that gets into my t-shirts during summertime. No amount of washing seems to remove it.

    Has anyone else noticed that it has become less effective recently? I only ask because I have read that they have altered the active ingredient and have had to remove the 48hr claim?

    spray under the arms (of the t shirt obviously :) )with a solution of white vinegar and water before washing and then wash (pref at 60 deg) with bicarb and value washing powder. Works for my gym stuff anyway. And the 60 deg wash only needs done eg every three weeks or so...in between you can just do regular washes till you notice it going again...
