    Crystal deodorant dermatitis: irritant dermatitis to alum-containing deodorant.

    Source

    Department of Dermatology, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis 55455-0392, USA.

    Abstract

    Two patients developed an irritant dermatitis of the axillae shortly after using an over-the-counter "natural deodorant crystal" product containing alum. We discuss this previously unreported, untoward reaction to alum, an ancient agent with newfound popularity as an alternative health product.
