This is the feedback thread of the 500 Mumsnetters who are testing PitROK Extra Sensitive deodorant.

Here’s what PitROK have to say: “It’s a sensitive time being a New Mum. It can bring wonders and joy; but also nagging questions about our children’s environment and what’s good for our bodies. We spoke to 641 New Mums, and over 40% of them told us they had changed their Deodorant around this time to stop the irritation some Antiperspirants can cause; whilst enabling their bodies to perform more naturally. At PitROK we’ve been making naturally effective deodorant for over 20 years and many people swear by them. Please try our new Extra Sensitive deo - it’s been especially formulated by a Mum for New Mums.”

Testers, now that you've been testing the product for 3-4 weeks and given your first impressions on PitROK Extra Sensitive, we'd like you to complete this survey and answer the questions below:

  • What were your thoughts about the effectiveness of PitROK Extra Sensitive, given that it's a natural product?
  • Do you feel that PitROK Extra Sensitive has had an effect on either your sensitive skin or under arm irritation?

If you have any trouble with using the product or have any queries about PitROK Extra Sensitive whilst you’re testing, feel free to use PitROK’s Ask Alison feature where they will be able to answer your questions.

All testers who give the required feedback will be entered into a prize draw where one MNer will win a £300 Boots voucher.

Thanks, and good luck!

Hi all, thanks for giving your initial feedback. PitROK have a message for you addressing most of the concerns people have mentioned. We'll be in contact shortly asking for your final feedback if you haven't given it already and sending out a link to the survey you'll need to fill out as a part of testing Smile

"Firstly, we really hope you’ve enjoyed some success in trialling our new Extra Sensitive product.

Your feedback has been invaluable for us. It’s certainly prompted lots of positive discussion here to improve a product which we hope, is already doing a good job.

We wanted to pick up a few points that have come up throughout the trial, in an attempt to help you better understand us and let you know how you have already made a difference.

The ‘second cap’ or the ‘inner cap’. Firstly, it’s recyclable. It’s also aids part of the production process and helps the product transport better. So please feel free to discard it once you have opened the product for the fist time. I know many of you have; useful to know it can cause confusion, so thank you. The bottle is also recyclable after use too.

The fragrance. Whilst this is designed as a Fragrance Free product, naturally the ingredients will emit some smell. It’s designed to quickly dissipate and therefore allow your normal/preferred fragrance to stand alone. We’re already looking into a lightly fragranced version of the Pitrok Extra Sensitive - and we hope to gain further feedback from consumers throughout future testing. Also, we already have two highly rated fragranced roll-on’s Gold and Berry Burst - equally natural and effective. We hope you might try one of these and let us have any feedback via our website or social media. Keep letting us know what you think.

The ‘runniness'. Admittedly, it can be a little disconcerting when you first try Pitrok spray, especially if you prefer roll-on’s or creams; and we do know people can sometimes apply a little more than is actually needed at first. Regardless, we are already looking again at the spray mechanism to see if we can get a better, finer ‘mist’. We also know that roughly 25% of people prefer a roll-on; and we are now into the final stages of developing one. We hope this will be launched in the next few months. Naturally, we’d love you to let us know what you think of it too.

When to use…? Clearly after bathing - whether it’s a bath, shower or quick freshen up in the washhand basin; just apply as often as you like to keep you clean, fresh and your body working at it’s natural best.

Finally, thank you again for taking part, I hope we have relieved discomfort from Under Arm Irritation and helped convert you a more ‘natural’ way to deal with perspiration, even better if you become a PitROK devotee and keep passing it on..."
