Products

Arrid deodorants and antiperspirants come in 5 different forms: solids, clear gels, sprays, roll-ons and cream.[2]

Advertising

During the 1940s and '50s, its famous slogan was "Don't be half-safe—use Arrid to be sure", which gave rise to Half-Safe, the name of the amphibious vehicle which Ben Carlin used to circumnavigate the world in the mid 20th century.[3]

In 1993, Arrid was backed by a $14 million television campaign, $1.4 million in radio and $3 million in print support.[4]

In the 2000s, one of its most popular slogans was "Stress stinks! Arrid works!"

Ingredients

Each of Arrid's deodorants contain a different active ingredient. In their solid and clear gel deodorant, the active ingredient is Aluminum Zirconium Tetrachlorohydrex Gly. The active ingredient in their spray deodorant is Aluminum Chlorohydrate and the active ingredient in their cream is Aluminum Sesquichlorohydrate.[2]
