A proposed settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit alleging that the labeling, advertising and marketing of Arm & Hammer Essentials deodorant with a label containing the terms “Natural Deodorant” and “Natural Protection” was misleading because not all of the ingredients in the deodorant are natural. The proposed class action settlement will provide cash benefits to consumers who purchased the allegedly mislabeled deodorant.
Church & Dwight Co. Inc., which labels, advertises, markets and sells Arm & Hammer Essentials deodorant, denies that the label was misleading but agreed to settle the class action lawsuit to avoid the risk and expense of ongoing litigation. Church & Dwight has already changed the labeling and advertising of the product to address the concerns raised in the Arm & Hammer deodorant lawsuit.
The Arm & Hammer natural deodorant class action settlement received preliminary approval on Feb. 4, 2015.
UPDATE: On Feb. 6, 2016, Top Class Actions readers started receiving Arm & Hammer deodorant settlement checks worth as much as $11.46. If you filed a claim, keep checking your mailbox because you may soon be receiving your payout!

Potential Award

Received my postcard check today in the amount of $11.76. Apparently so many people filed claiming they had used the deodorant that the amount awarded was reduced, as is often the case.
