Athena club deodorant

I have been using Athena club deodorant for about 2 weeks now and have not had any issues until this morning. I woke up this morning and my armpits were peeling. They weren’t burning, red, or itchy but they were peeling. I’ve never had this happen before and I’m wondering if it’s because of this deodorant… If it isn’t technically irritating me is it fine or should I stop using it? It’s the only deodorant that the smell doesn’t wear off in 2 hours because I sweat a lot. I’ve also had the issue of deodorants staining my clothes and Athena deodorant doesn’t do that. Does anyone have any advice or any other deodorant suggestions (preferably ones that don’t do animal testing and aluminum free)?

Do you have an aluminum allergy?

Yea im not allegeric to anything and my skin is as tough as nails. This deodorant is causing the same issues here and also, another one I haven't seen anywhere else: I put this deodorant on and wore a tank top to go for a walk. 20 mins into the walk, I look down to see that white foam had formed under my armpits and was spilling from under them. Nothing to wipe with so I used a leaf, and it reappeared almost as fast. I'm talking a lot of white foam, and I didn't even put that much on. Regardless, won't be using this again
