What makes Mitchum different from other antiperspirants?
Mitchum uses advanced micro-encapsulation technology and a triple-action formula that works in three ways: neutralizing bacteria, absorbing moisture, and releasing fresh scent molecules as you move. Clinical testing proves our formulas are 25% more effective than leading competitors in South Africa.
Do Mitchum products leave white marks on clothes?
No, our clear gel and invisible solid formulas go on clear and stay clear, leaving no residue on your clothes. This makes Mitchum perfect for both dark and light-colored clothing without worrying about stains or marks.
What's the difference between Mitchum antiperspirant and deodorant?
Antiperspirants contain aluminum-based compounds that block sweat ducts to prevent sweating, while deodorants neutralize odor-causing bacteria. Mitchum antiperspirants provide both sweat and odor protection, while our deodorants focus on odor control with moisturizing ingredients like vitamin E and aloe.
How should I apply Mitchum for best results?
For best results, apply Mitchum to clean, dry skin before bedtime. This allows the active ingredients to form protective plugs in your sweat ducts overnight. You can shower in the morning without reducing effectiveness. Apply 2-3 strokes to each underarm and allow to dry completely.
Are Mitchum products tested on animals?
No, Mitchum does not test on animals. We are committed to cruelty-free testing methods and use advanced laboratory techniques and clinical studies with human volunteers to ensure product safety and effectiveness.
What sizes and scents are available in South Africa?
Mitchum products in South Africa are available in 50ml and 100ml sizes. Popular scents include Unscented, Fresh, Cool, and Sport for men, and Powder Fresh, Pure Fresh, and Shower Fresh for women. Clinical strength versions are available in selected scents.
Can I use Mitchum if I have excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis)?
Yes, our Clinical Strength formulas are specifically designed for people with excessive sweating. These provide prescription-strength protection without a prescription and are particularly effective for hyperhidrosis. However, consult your doctor for severe cases.

Important Batch Issue Information
Official Statement from Mitchum South Africa
A message to our Mitchum South Africa community 💚
Some of you have told us that you have experienced skin irritation after using select batches of Mitchum 48-hour 100ml Roll-On, sold here in South Africa. No other product lines are affected. We appreciate you bringing your experience to our attention. We are truly sorry to those who were impacted and for the time it took to complete our investigation.
We want to share what happened. While the formula itself hasn't changed, a change in the manufacturing process of one of our raw materials altered how the product interacts with the skin of some consumers. This did not meet our standards, nor the standards of our loyal Mitchum community. We've gone back to the original process and are working with our retail partners to remove all affected products from shelves.
Your well-being means everything to us and we want to make this right. If you've experienced any issues, please reach out to our Customer Care team in South Africa via our toll free number on 0800 128 464 (operational from Monday to Thursday, from 4pm to 6pm and again from 8pm to 10pm).
With care,
The Mitchum South Africa Team
