UnderArm Roll-On with 5% AHA| Lactic & Mandelic Acid|Prevents Odour, Brightens Skin & Exfoliates Underarm | For Sensitive Skin | Aqua Fragrance | Alcohol & Aluminium Free | 1.35 fl oz

After trying what feels like every natural deodorant out there (and being let down more times than I can count), I finally found one that actually delivers: Chemist at Play UnderArm Roll-On with 5% AHA (Lactic & Mandelic Acid). This one checks all the boxes—long-lasting odor control (24+ hours, even up to 48 with proper prep), gentle on sensitive skin, and added benefits like brightening and mild exfoliation. Plus, it’s alcohol- and aluminum-free, which was a must for me. Pro tip: apply it to very clean, completely dry underarms (I like pairing it with the Chemist at Play Odor Control Body Wash). Let it fully dry before getting dressed—this makes a huge difference in performance and helps it last even longer. No sticky residue, no transfer onto clothes—just smooth, effective protection. I ended up buying ALL the scents, and it even works great for hormonal and smelly teenagers. I’ve been searching for a natural deodorant that actually works for so long, and I can’t stop telling people about this one. Highly recommend, will buy again! OCiLashGirl approved✅

It has been a while since I used an underarm roll on product but I have been trying to use more natural products and so I gave this one a try. The product is wet when it goes on but it absorbs quickly and leaves you feeling dry. There is a slight tingle when applying which I assume is because it is acid based (5% AHAs) and is related to the process of lowering the pH and sloughing off of dead skin cells. The Jasmine sent is very pleasant and a light amount seems to linger throughout the day. I feel like it is very effective in preventing body odor. I like that it is alcohol-free, aluminum-free, paraben-free, silicone-free and dye-free, and unlike some other natural products I have tried under my arms, this one does not irritate my skin or cause me to feel itchy, which I also like.

I recently tried the Chemist at Play Underarm Roll-On, and I’m genuinely impressed with the results. After using it consistently, I noticed my underarms feeling smoother and looking brighter, which was a really nice bonus. The formula is lightweight and easy to apply with the roll-on, and it absorbs quickly without feeling sticky. I also love that it helps control odor while being gentle on the skin—no irritation at all. It feels more like a skincare product for your underarms rather than just a regular deodorant. Another thing I appreciate is how fresh and clean it feels throughout the day. It’s a simple addition to my routine but makes a noticeable difference. Overall, if you’re looking for an underarm product that helps with odor while also caring for your skin, this is definitely worth trying! 👍

I gave the Chemist at Play UnderArm Roll-On (5% AHA – Lactic & Mandelic Acid) a solid ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ — because apparently my underarms deserve skincare too. First of all, this isn’t your average “mask-the-BO-and-pray” deodorant. It’s out here exfoliating with lactic and mandelic acid like it’s prepping for a facial. Over time, I did notice smoother, brighter underarms (who knew we were aiming for radiant armpits in 2026?). The White Jasmine fragrance is light and fresh — not “walking through a perfume cloud” strong. And bonus points for being alcohol- and aluminum-free, which means no sting-fest after shaving. Sensitive-skin friendly? We love to see it. Why not 5 stars? On extra sweaty days, I still need backup. She’s skincare-first, sweat-second. Overall: gentle, effective, and slightly bougie for an underarm product — but honestly, my pits feel pampered and I’m not mad about it.

TLDR; Works great as a deodorant not an antiperspirant, but ability to withstand sweating varies depending on scent. Woody musk & aqua fragrance have performed better with a lot of sweating for me than white jasmine and no fragrance. --- For background about myself, I take medication that causes me to be excessively sweaty (if you take SSRIs you may relate). Like I drip buckets and sweat like no other. You cannot possibly imagine the amount of water I consume to stay hydrated. However, I don't like antiperspirants and most do not work for me. Therefore, I am only judging these deodorants on their efficacy as a deodorant and how well they withstand sweating. I have used all kinds of deodorants on the market. Lume, carpe, secret, dove, arm & hammer, old spice, saltair, megababe, native, schmidt, degree, mitchum, just to name a few. If it exists, I've probably tried it. Most antiperspirants containing aluminum and deodorants with a base of baking soda have not worked for me. They either aren't effective at removing my body odor and/or they do not last long enough and I have to reapply. Because I am super extra unimaginably sweaty, reapplying is a whole process of wiping dry and cleaning the surface before reapplying. It's really annoying and inconvenient, especially because I live in Texas. Because of this, my preference in deodorant is acid-based deodorants! Although I am still super sweaty, I find that acid-based deodorants best neutralize my body odor for an entire day, even if I spend the day outside sweating basically non-stop. In my experience, glycolic acid doesn't mesh well with my body chemistry, by mandelic acid works great, ymmv. My previous deodorant I loved is the Saltair Serum deodorant, but it's more expensive and has been more difficult for me to find because it's only at select Target stores. The convenience of the Chemist At Play Mandelic Acid deodorant has made it my all time fave and is currently a staple. I've been consistently using this brand of deodorant for over 7 months and I have tried 4 scents: no fragrance, aqua fragrance, woody musk fragrance, and white jasmine fragrance. My absolute favorite is Woody Musk and I've repurchased it. I like the smell and it effectively deodorizes me for the length of a day. I usually do not need to reapply. A 5/5 from me all day every day. My second favorite is the Aqua fragrance. It's not my favorite scent (not that it smells bad, just not my preference, it's a really masculine scent) but it still works great. It keeps any body odor at bay and usually doesn't require reapplication. As a deodorant, I still give this one a 5/5 objectively, but my personal opinion for the fragrance bumps it to a 4/5, personally. I'd still suggest anybody considering to try to themselves. I did finish the bottle myself. The final two, White Jasmine and No Fragrance are iffy for me. White Jasmine smells really good and feminine but I've found it to not last as long as woody musk or aqua fragrance. This requires reapplication and smell checks if I'm sweating a lot. No fragrance is truly no fragrance unlike other "no fragrance" deodorants. However, I have the same issue where I find it doesn't last quite as long either. I still use both if I'm not expecting to sweat much but they're more or less just backups I plan to use til empty and not repurchase. I'd give these 2 specifically a 3.5/5 stars. I think I'd only suggest these if you don't sweat too much.

Good product

I have been using it for a week now, and the result is that there is a slight difference in the skin tone, and its fragrance is really lovely. My husband liked it a lot.

Actually a good product, but buy the version without any perfume or scent in it. I saw clear improvement in skin tone. Also it's better than Nivea and other roll ons with 72 hrs protection and all which blocks natural pores and interferes with natural system of sweating. But this provides like a whole day of odour free experience. So everyone needs to understand is this is a de odorant to be applied in underarm and you have to put the perfume on your clothes or pulse points ( not recommended on direct skin even if very good brand coz molecules do get absorbed in our skin, just like topical creams and medicines work by getting absorbed). So yeah, do buy this product, but if you're going to be sweating heavy or using clothes which need dry cleaning or don't want to get odor on them at all, I'd recommend nivea sensetive with 72 hrs protection one. That works the best but with downsides to body. Also chemistplay has natural ingredients too. And no I did not get any leaked bottle as people told.

Smells amazing

The smell of this is pleasantly surprising. It really does work at removing/preventing under arm odour. It lasts for me at least a couple of days. I have had no issues with skin irritation, with or without shaving. I wish I could buy a bigger bottle! This was honestly my life saver in the heat! And even now in the colder months. I still find that i want to grab it, not only to prevent odours but I find it to be brilliant base to build on scent wise.
