I have tried Lady speed stick & Secret stick & break out in a rash .Any suggestions as what to try ?

Some use the diaper rash baby bum stuff-very gentle - - brand name escapes me right now - it's petroleum jelly with zinc.

or there is "plain label" eqivalents usually at a much better price.

60 ml Coconut oil  
30 ml baking soda  
30 ml cornstarch/arrowroot powder  
 
It works amazingly well and smells very delicate. It is gentle too.

I was like that but it was my body fighting against my skin. After a problem for years I used this stuff twice and it was cleared up. It's expensive though. The deodorant and antiperspirant was only irritating the issue

I have the same problem, it also causes a rash with certain soaps and bubble bath stuff. Always under my armpits. I couldn't figure it out what to use either. Then I went to the spa at Elkhorn Resort a few years back and a lady there suggested a salt crystal. I bought one and I have never looked back. You can buy them at Walmart or any health food store.

I am allergic to EVERYTHING, yet I can use this one. Give it a try! I usually get it at Shoppers.

I like the salt crystal spray. It's more convenient than the solid crystal.

Someone I knew had a problem with the alcohol in deodorants. Try alcohol free, I think Mitchums has ones that are alcohol free.

I got a rash from Lady Speed Stick too. You should give the Dove brand stick a try. I have really sensitive skin and for some reason anything by Dove seems to be okay. They have also come a long way in recent years with scents so you are able to change things up month-to-month if you would like.

Deodorant and Antiperspirant are 2 very different products. Most deodorants have aluminum in them and many people get rashes and blisters for that reason. There are some non aluminum choices and you can find lists of them on the internet. Deodorant is for smell and antiperspirant is for sweat so they are made from very different ingredients.  
 
Good Luck and hopefully it is the aluminum because that is an easy fix.

I am allergic to Zinc...so maybe look at the ingredients to find a brand that is zinc free.
