I've never been in more pain in my life! I originally thought it was the lavender scent, so I tried I unscented...no difference! I want a cruelty free product that doesn't hurt! I've stopped using tom's but can't get the peeling skin to go away...thanks a lot Tom's!!!!

What is an allergic reaction 

An allergic reaction is very much less common than irritative reactions. During life, we estimate that approximately 2% will develop an allergic reaction to a cosmetic product. Allergic reactions manifest themselves in skin contact dermatitis. For such a reaction to take place, one must first develop an allergy. On first use of a drug (new cream) will never get an allergic reaction. The body must first develop an allergy. Prolonged use may immune system develop such sensitivity (allergy). This process is called technical term sensitization. Once one is sensitized, even very small amounts of the product provide a dermatitis reaction in the skin. Typical allergic reactions are swelling, scaling and bags changes in the skin.

It's so weird that I found this post! I was online seeking reasons that I was suddenly having this underarm peeling and coincidentally (or not) it started shortly after I started using Tom's. I've been using Secret most of my adult life and last summer I decided to use the aluminum and crap free Tom's.  It was a month or so later that I noticed dead skin and brushed it off as the body going through changes. Then each time I'd bathe/shower I noticed crap on my wash rag or loofa and realized it was from my arm pits. There was redness after washing and a mild itch but no burning (as of yet).  I have to research the ingredients to figure out why I'm having that reaction but it's good to know that this is not unique to just me. Hopefully I can find an answer for everyone who is experiencing this problem.  Thanks for the group!!!
