Lume Whole Body Deodorant - Cream Stick - 2.2 oz (Minted Cucumber)

I like Lume. It took me awhile to getting around to trying it as I had actually been using a different but similarly effective product for awhile by Boscia. I find that with these products, a little goes a long way. Whether from a tube, or from an applicator, the product is creamy. It spreads well, and rubs in nicely. No need to leave it caked, be sure to massage in until it pretty much disappears. With the applicator, when using anywhere than the armpits, add some to finger tips then spread over body parts. I get a funky smell in the leg area when I have been sweaty. I was taking multiple "bird baths" through the day to freshen up, but it never really made a difference. Using a product such as Lume will knock that out. I massage some into leg pits (where legs meet crotch area), around my belly button, butt area, and any spot that I think could benefit from this stuff. I dont use it on my arm pits as I have plenty of deodorant already for that. But it could be used for that. Basically what this is doing is not masking, blocking out odor, but it has components that help eat bacteria causing odor. This is why it is possible that is can be effective for a few days at a time, even with showering. Now, the time frame of how long it works will depend on your body chemistry, your environment, and even what you wear. My clothing isnt all that breathable so that has much to do with the funk smell. Pools of sweat in hot body regions. Yuck. I use Lume (or Boscia), and I am not stinking. I can swipe my finger along my inner leg crease, and my finger just smells like citrus. I'll use this daily for rest of summer, then likely just a couple few times a week going into cool temps. Or maybe I will just use it daily. Little goes a long way, its effective, smells good. No issues. I'll buy this again. Got a stinky belly button? try this. btw, here is link to the other product I use- same texture, little goes long way Boscia version https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08W3KK6MB/

I’ve been using this for 10 weeks, I’ve seen a lot of people say how much they hate the smell of this stuff. I can only speak for the vanilla scent. It does not really smell like vanilla, smells more like sunscreen actually, which isn’t bad at all, but either case, the smell GOES AWAY after a short while and then, I don’t smell anything! NO BODY ODOR nor fragrance. This I really like! I have had friends smell my pits too just to double check and they all say woah I don’t smell anything at all. So maybe it does matter what is smells like initially when you first put it on if in 30 minutes it disappears anyway 🤷🏻‍♀️. I’ve also heard some say that depending on your armpit toxicity from using toxic deodorants, going through a current detox, or just currently still having a somewhat high toxin influx of products and environment, (it can be a hard process, detoxing life! That’s for sure!) that it may take a little time for it to work like it says. In other words, don’t judge in absolute form on the first day. This probably requires more research for validity but I just thought I’d mention. Maybe give it a week or more before coming to any conclusions? I did not experience a delay in its effectiveness but it seems others did. I plan on trying the other scents eventually, but this one “stick” (it’s more like a paste dispenser) is lasting a really long time so it may be awhile. You don’t need very much at all. I’ve had on stick over two months. I also don’t need to use it every day, maybe every other. This is also nice because they aren’t exactly cheap. But again I don’t mind because it works BETTER than any other deodorant I’ve used, even the Mitchum (Mitchum I used when I was doing sports and sweating a lot—it worked great for a short time then suddenly did not, within a few weeks. I was told body and the bacteria adapted and that has happened to others too I hear? I’ve been using Lume for over two months, 10 weeks to be exact and it’s working great still). I do wish there was a smaller sample pack to try all the scents because I’m curious lol. Maybe they will offer this in the near future as many have also mentioned wishing for this. They may eventually adapt the scents too who knows 😊.

This is an update to my previous review which I am leaving here to show how awfully my experience progressed. I had to stop using it. I hate to waste products, but this one had to go in the trash. The longevity got even worse as time went on and something strange started to happen. I wasn’t a fan of the smell in the first place, but I read from the company on a Facebook ad that the smell is supposed to be very mild and fade away leaving you unscented. Well...it didn’t do that with me...after I would apply it’s like this product would react with my body chemistry and intensify this foul play dough/funky butt smell. This isn’t at all what my body odor smells like at all by the way. I saw someone else in the Facebook ad mention that it made her smell stinky. Well, I continue using the deodorant because it isn’t always that bad and again, I hate wasting stuff. I work in child care and one day the 3YO kept saying he smelled something stinky like poo and he didn’t like it and left the room. Then later he was sitting in my lap and said “you smell like poo!!!” And ran away. I had him smell my breath and clothes and he was like “no that’s not the smell”. I didn’t think to have him smell underarm at the time, but thought of it when I got home because the deodorant was gross that day. After being embarrassed by a 3YO I buy something else and start using - complete 180 in effectiveness and smell. The next time I see the kid he says “you don’t smell like poo today, you smell like yummy sugar”. So if you don’t want to be told be a child that you smell like poo don’t buy this deodorant cuz it’s not worth the price if your body chemistry doesn’t mix with it well. (Previous)This may be a premature review, but I have to get my thoughts of how it is now out there. I have used this deodorant 3 days now. I plan on letting the bottle run it’s course and will update this review if anything changes. For starters, I am not happy with this product. After reviewing ingredients and seeing things other natural deodorants don’t have I was very optimistic. I have been using natural deodorant for almost 2 years, so I am past the “detox stage”. I have tried a variety of native, variety of Schmidt’s, love beauty planet, crystal, and another brand I can’t remember the name of. I guess I will start with the good before I get to the bad: It does surprisingly control my sweat more than other deodorants. I still obviously get sweaty, but I don’t feel much wetness on my underarm area. I also like that it doesn’t make my underarms feel goopy like some other brands have. Now for the bad: •I got the coconut scent, which you can hardly smell. I don’t mind that too much bc I don’t like over fragranced products. The underlying smell makes the product kind of smell like play dough though. •This product irritates my underarm mildly. I’m lucky and most deodorants do not bother my underarm but this one does •I have the kind that is supposed to be a deodorant stick, which isn’t really a stick at all. I dial up the tiniest amount and apply. When I wipe the product of the “stick” it always presses more out which is annoying because I end up with too much. It also makes a mess on the lid •Here’s the big one:longevity....I showered this morning, applied lume, went about the rest of my routine and went to work. I started to notice some stinky smell coming through as early as 10:30am...which is only about 3 hours from the time of applying. By the end of the day I am pretty funky. Even if I wipe my underarms down with a paper towel when I notice they’re moist. I will say they aren’t as bad as they can be after other deodorants, but I really expected a stellar product here and this one is mediocre. •Value: not worth $16

I got this to try this new brand out, and it works really well for me. I gave this one four stars because of the initial scent. The only problem I have is the smell Right after I put it on There is an after smell; to me, at least. I have to turn away from the smell in order to not feel nauseous. I think it is only with this scent that I have the biggest problem. I ordered more from the company and the lavender isn't as bad. Also, it only seems to affect me with the cream like deodorants. (I don't have the issue with the dry version of their deodorants) From this apparatus as well as the squeeze tube , There seems to just be a sweet sickly smell to me. I cannot really describe it. My nose just cannot take it first thing in the morning. I've never actually vomited or anything, it just isn't pleasant to me. But the deodorant works super well! I do not perspire or itch afterwards. I have extremely sensitive skin and Most of the major/popular branded deodorants had been causing me to have an allergic reaction, and Lume does not. I have been looking for A deodorant that works and doesn't cause me to break out or itch for far too long! I had been seeing their commercials all over the place, but looked at the price and was skeptical. But I am a believer now and definitely will be using this for years to come. I purchased a few things from the Black Friday sale as well. I'm happy with this product. It is definitely great to have something that doesn't have a lot of extra chemicals in it that will cause us to break out and have other issues. The peony smelling soap is the best! That was my favorite from my order from their site. I ordered more of that and the lavender and unscented deodorant from them as well.

Lume Coconut Scent-- Disclaimer: I am an adult male and ordered Lume instead of their packaged for men version under another name. I ordered the Lume branded product because the men's version did not offer a coconut scent. However, the literature states that Lume works equally well on men, so I ordered. Somewhat confusing message and perhaps now that Lume is owned by Harry's they will unify their labeling and clarify their communication. The product is new to me--just a few days of use. Perhaps I will learn more and have better success as I go along with using it. Right now, my early take is that this is an okay and decent product, but not worth the price for the so-so results. --The promise that it worked well against odor. It does work on odor better than most of the deodorants I have used, but it is only somewhat effective against big perspiration odor. Disappointing. --Looked like I was ordering a solid and expectant deodorant stick. Yea! What came instead is a cream that pushes up through three slots. Should have been made clear that this was a cream. Maybe I didn't read closely enough. I am not used to a cream and this is quite a change for me (old dogs, new tricks and all that). We will see how it goes. --Smell. I live in a beach town and really like the bright and distinctive scent of coconut. I figured this would be a robust scent that stood out boldly. In reality, the scent is quite muted and only barely approaches the smell of coconut. --Price. This stuff is really expensive--about three times shelf deodorant. However, I figured, what the heck. If it works as advertised, I was willing to take a chance and pony up. Overall, I am underwhelmed. The pricey (and small) packaging isn't adding up to repeat orders from me.

I have been using natural deodorants or no deodorant at all for the last 4 years and I can safely say I have tried like every natural deodorant that exists on the market so I feel extremely qualified to write this review. All of them either don’t work, smell awful, Or leave me with welts or rashes (Native being the worst offender). Previous to this, the only one I could use for any length of time was the Dove 0%, but it wears off quite quickly in the hot florida summer. To be fair, I am not a Very smelly person, nor am I a big sweater. I will tell you that there are some definite opportunities, however the pros far outweigh the cons. We will start with the cons: 1- the initial smell is a little less tangerine and a little more earthy citrus. But it goes away very quickly, like as soon as it dries and your left with really no smell at all. So if you are looking for something With fragrance to mask scent, this is not it. 2- it’s a little on the pricey side, but a little goes a long way, like you barely need any and for me it lasts at least 2 days even after a shower. Pros: 1-I literally smell like NOTHING! no joke, I’m currently on day 3 and my armpit has no smell at all. We went to an outdoor fall festival and I sweat like crazy all afternoon in the 90 degree heat. I smell other places, my armpits smell like air. I even showered yesterday morning before we went and did not put any on after. 2- even the scented versions seem to have little smell. I am extremely sensitive to scents. I am 7 months pregnant and everything with fragrance makes me want to puke. The initial scent is a little citrus earthy (I got the tangerine) but it goes away almost immediately and you are left with zero smell. 3- you need very little. One click twist will do both armpits and lasts me 2-3 days. 4- my skin is very sensitive. I get rashes and welts in my armpits almost immediately and from basically everything. I have had no reaction to this and I have been using it over a week now.

I've tried the Unscented and Clean Tangerine. Both work great! I usually have very sensitive skin but have not had any trouble with this deodorant! Unlike another reviewer, my invisible cream stick wasn't runny; the opposite really. My sister told me to either wet my pits or the stick and it'll glide on easier. She's right; that works great. The Unscented isn't quite unscented. It's pretty mild but maybe slightly herb-y or smells like soap? I've noticed a little variation but not a problem or intense. Now, when it mixes with sweat, it does turn to a different smell that I know it's about to wear off. The Clean Tangerine smells so fresh and clean. I love it! When it mixes with my sweat, it's still OK which is nice. I think it's about finding the scent that mixes well with your own sweat. This deodorant truly lasts 72hrs! I'm so impressed! Only might need to reapply again if heavily workout-sweating, maybe. Will test it out this summer in more hot temperatures. Only drawback is when I get dressed right after applying it, sometimes white marks get on my shirt. Not exactly invisible but I'll put up with that given how well it works and smells! Thanks, Lume! Happy it's available on Amazon too!

I need to preface my review by saying I found that deodorant under 19% aluminum was not strong enough for me. Breast cancer runs in my family, and the whole antiperspirant part of deodorants always seemed like it probably wasn't the best either, but all the natural deodorants I tried (So Many) started to fail by the afternoon, several hours before I was Getty off work so I always went back to the aluminum, I now happily use Lume as my only deodorant for about 3/4 of the year! I live in Arizona so during our intensely hot summers Lume doesn't quite do the trick for me and I will get stinky, so I do fall back to the aluminum stuff. Similarly if I'm going to be doing something where I know I'm going to get really hot (intense exercise or wearing a hot costume to a comic convention) I also fall back to the aluminum deodorant. BUT I've never had a non-aluminum deodorant work for more half a day even just sitting in an office, so I'm still really happy and impressed that a very good majority of the times this stuff really works. Getting sweaty arm pits does take some getting used to if you've been using antiperspirants for a long time - but I find while I do get a little sweaty, it's not stinky. I will also add to the chorus of other users who talk about the smell of the deodorant itself. It's like a mix of wet beach sand, the milk after a bowl of very wheaty/healthy cereal, and scented powdered dishwashing soap. But it seems the off putting part of the scent doesn't carry to others when I have asked friends & family (at least for the vanilla).

Ce produit à complètement changer ma vie. Je peux m'habiller comme je veux sans me soucier qu'il y ait de mauvaises odeurs. Je souffre d'hyperhidrose (transpiration excessive) et en plus de la sueur, mes aisselles degageaient une forte odeur malgré l'utilisation de déodorant ou antitranspirant. Parfois, j'évitais de mettre de produit sous mes aiselles parce que je trouvais que la combinaison de sueur + produit = mauvais odeur. Depuis que j'ai decouvert le deodorant Lume dans une pharmacie aux US, NJ ( je viens du Québec,Canada) mon quotidien et ma vie ont complètement changé. Je ne dégage plus d odeur. Meme si je transpire, personne ne le sait parce que je ne dégage plus du tout d odeur. Je l'applique aux 3 jours et durant tout ce temps je sens seulement le parfum ou l'huile de mon choix. Je recommande ce produit avec toute confiance que vous serez satisfait. En plus, de pouvoir l'appliquer partout où l'on degage de mauvaises odeurs, il est ALUMINIUM FREE. GO GET IT!!!

I used the unscented before and i liked it. This one is good too, the smell is not to strong and protects very good!

Good

This is the first deodorant/wetness control product that I can use without any problems. I have very sensitive skin and it's amazing. As you use so little it's good value for the money, the scent is lovely and is effective for 72hrs.

Expensive but works
