Q: Does this stain your clothes? Is it ok. For someone undergoing chemo treatments?

submitted by Vwas - 6 years ago
  • A: Yes, it will stain. I don’t think it happens with one time use...I didn’t pay attention, but with use overtime use. I did warm up the this charchoal deo till it was soft. You obviously cannot see it in the dark too, but 100% on lights. I had to scrub hard those areas with soap to get it off...but who wants to do that every time. The deo has great reviews and I was really hoping it would, but I didn’t for me :( and I followed the instructions...I am a rule follower so reading instructions is natural to me. I did about to passes of the deo per armpit. Maybe it is supposed to be only one pass? Not sure. But I am not willing to try it again unless the company does something about it. But if you do not mind the stains then this deo deff work and helps you stay dry.

    submitted byJackie - 4 years ago
  • A: Great questions! With proper application, this should not stain your clothes. Make sure you warm the product on your skin, apply 1-3 swipe and allow the deodorant to absorb into the skin before you dress. It should absolutely be safe for anyone undergoing chemo, but we always recommend checking in with a physician if you have specific medical concerns.

  • A: It will absolutely stain your clothes. I followed appropriate application guidelines from the company, and it ruined a brand new shirt after a single wear.

    submitted byStan - 6 years ago
  • A: The first deodorant that does not irritate my husband. No have not noticed it staining clothing. He does not over- apply.

Q: What is the natural fragrance? I have a newborn and she can’t be around essential oils so I am trying to find a safe deodorant.

Q: Is there a new formula? Some of the reviews seem to indicate there is which makes me nervous.

Q: what is the natural fragrance that ngresient? I can't have anything with combination of lavender and tea tree oil together.

submitted by Tia - 2 years ago
  • A: Our natural fragrances are a combination of pure essential oils or non-synthetic isolates, which are a combination of aromatic molecules distilled from natural plant materials. These are proprietary blends so we aren’t able to release the exact formulation. The scent of this product is freshly fallen rain - we hope this helps!

Q: Is it suitable for 11 year olds?

submitted by Anonymous - 6 years ago
  • A: I would say so. I am about to purchase it for my 12 year old. I have very sensitive skin and so many natural deodorants made me break out or itch. I had no issues with this one at all. There is also a Schmidt's sensitive skin line, the Coconut Pineapple smells and works amazing too.

This deodorant right here is good it smelt okay but the grittiest deodorant I've ever tried it felt like I was putting sand underneath of my armpits by the pounds so if you like Sandy armpits then I recommend if you don't then I recommend you try something different than this Sandy Schmitz charcoal deodorant

The deodorant itself smells great and works BUT I did a load of laundry after a week of wearing it and all of my favorite white/light colored shirts have big dark stains in the pit area. I tried remedies to get them out and nothing has worked so far. I’m very upset about this. Do not recommend unless you only wear very dark tops.

ED - 3 months ago, Verified purchaser
I’ve been trying many different natural deodorants with no luck from many of time. Typically they don’t last a full day for me and I’m a sweater. This deodorant has been the best one I’ve found so far. It lasts longer than other brands I’ve tried and the scent lasts for most of the day. I still have to reapply by the evening but it definitely makes it through most of the day. I still sweat with it though

Pikato - 4 months ago, Verified purchaser
Best deodorant I’ve ever used. Lasts all day no matter what I’m doing. Ive switched to aluminum free several years ago and had never found a deodorant that lasted all day like the aluminum-containing deodorants did. I had come to accept that maybe aluminum free deodorants just can’t give me that so I’d have to reapply once throughout the day till I found this one.

Awesome natural deodorant

This Schmidt’s Charcoal Magnesium Natural Deodorant is one of my favorite deodorants. I love that it neutralizes odor so well. It’s easy to apply and feels good on my skin. The stick makes all the difference because I’m not a fan of their old pots. Overall I’m very happy with this deodorant because it’s aluminum-free, natural and works.

This deodorant is SO much healthier for you! No aluminum! It’s thick and has a very light scent. I do feel like I have to reapply especially in the summer time but that’s to be expected I think! I like it!

Hoffmja - 5 months ago, Verified purchaser
Game changer! First and only aluminum free product that I have ever found that actually works to stop wetness and odor and I’ve tried them all. If I want something scented, I just put a little of that over top. Definitely is a thicker and dryer product going on but worth it. Give this one a try!

New Formula

Thumbs down graphic, would not recommend
Sammish - 6 months ago, Verified purchaser
I buy the charcoal scent. Used to be my favorite even through all the price increases through the years. The new formula is sticky like Jason’s deodorant and gets all over my clothes now. No more powdery fresh and dry feeling. There is a new label, so if you see it I’d stay away. Can’t swing the price tag with a subpar product. Another good product bites the dust to poor formula changes.
