Consumers have reported Mitchum deodorant injuries, including rashes and weeping wounds. The manufacturer has confirmed that certain batches of their Mitchum 48-hour Roll-On Antiperspirant and Deodorant have been affected and have recalled the products. The defect was caused by a change in the manufacturing process affecting a raw material.
Persons who have experienced burns, rashes, discolouration or scarring from using affected batches of the antiperspirant deodorant could be entitled to compensation for the harm caused by these defective products. As we will examine, consumers have the right to safe products that work as advertised and are fit for purpose. When these standards are not upheld and consumers suffer injuries, manufacturers can be held liable for these product faults.

Multiple lines of Mitchum deodorant products are being recalled following a safety report in October 2025, where multiple Mitchum Deodorant products were listed as hazardous to health. Several customers across the UK and Ireland, as well as South Africa, reported itching, burning and other skin irritations after using the products. In some severe cases, customers have reported permanent scars from using these deodorants.
Mitchum reported that the problems arose not from any changes to the deodorant formula, but from a specific change in the manufacturing process of one of the raw materials used in the products. They have since switched back to the original processing and have removed the affected batches from retail shelves.
The recalled batches are a number of 100ml roll-on deodorants from both the men’s and women’s ranges. The Office for Product Safety and Standards report on the recall specifies the following Mitchum products as affected:
