Old Spice Faces Claims Deodorant Sprays Contain Benzene
While no class action lawsuit is currently accusing Old Spice deodorant of causing chemical burns, Procter & Gamble has been under fire recently over a pair of claims it sold Old Spice antiperspirant and deodorant sprays contaminated with the cancer-causing chemical benzene.
The complaints, filed in January by two separate consumers, allege P&G falsely marketed its Old Spice antiperspirant and deodorant sprays as safe and effective for consumers since they, in reality, were contaminated with benzene.
The benzene contamination came to light following a study released in May of last year by Valisure, an independent analytical pharmacy.
The Valisure study revealed the presence of benzene in a number of different cosmetic, health care and aerosol products, including Old Spice antiperspirant and deodorant sprays manufactured and sold by P&G.
Exposure to benzene can cause a variety of adverse health effects in humans, including blood cancers and conditions such as anemia and leukemia, according to the pair of class action lawsuits.
Benzene contamination also caused P&G to recall 32 different dry shampoo and conditioner products in February, including brands such as Pantene, Herbal Essences and Old Spice, among others.
Claims that Old Spice deodorant can cause chemical burns are not new, meanwhile, with a class action lawsuit lobbying the accusation against P&G back in 2016.
In that complaint, a New York consumer claimed 13 different Old Spice deodorants caused a number of consumers to suffer chemical burns due to the products allegedly being defectively manufactured by P&G.
The class action lawsuit would ultimately claim over 100 consumers had been injured by the Old Spice deodorants by experiencing chemical burns in their armpits.

My son currently has a rash from old spice deodorant. Do not know if class action was settled but my son has a rash today from the deodorant.
MY armpits are raw and painful after using Old Spice Swagger deodorant TODAY, please add me to the Old Spice lawsuit.
Add me, I got burned in the pits by old spice today….. bad.
Add me please. I just noticed a burning under my arms and didn’t think anything of it until I noticed it hadn’t gone away in like 3 days. I looked under my left arm pit and what I saw I thought was a scratch, then I looked under my right arm pit and noticed almost the same exact mark. Its not been about 4 days and its not getting better and its very painful. I have pictures of them as well as the product lot numbers and packaging.
Yep, thought this was eczema at first but no. Stopped using the deodorant and after a week of painful rash it’s still somehow getting worse. I wake up in the middle of the night from pain and discomfort. Old Spice Wilderness.
Just recently got a old spice deodorant which complete burned my armpit skin off, everything on and around my arm pit it red and on fire. Who do I reach out to join this lawsuit?
Add me. I switched to Old Spice Wilderness for more antiperspirant properties and At 21 weeks pregnant I developed a painful rash under my left armpit. Now, a week later, and it’s red, painful, raw oozing skin. The doctor literally Scratched her head and said “how did you get a chemical burn here because that’s what this is.”
Unbearable pain in my armpits.
All the oozing messed up my clothes and I can’t sleep due to the pain
My 15 year old daughter with the same issues. Add her
My 15 year old daughter with the same issues. Both armpits with awful pain. Add her to the list
While my initial injury was back in spring, I still have scarring. The burns where on both of my arm pits and became so severely infected that I had to go to the ER. Furthermore, for three months, I was physically incapable of lifting my arms up. If there is to be a class action, I would greatly appreciate being considered for involvement.
I was burned last week by old spice swagger. It hurts to the point I cannot move. I have pictures and it’s still there now. 4 inch c shape burn on left armpit. Small patch on right armpit
Add me as well.
I’m in bad shape.
Add me. Mine are the burned and are not healing.
Ok I thought I was crazy was looking for an aluminum free product and grabbed there’s. Wow my armpits are on fire right now.
