I ordered Lume because I sweat a lot & bacteria stinks!
I ordered Lume because I sweat a lot & even though I shower every day & use deodorant every day, under my breasts & the folds at my genital area would smell from bacteria ( I have large breasts & am overweight, go figure ). I saw the commercial for Lume & decided to give it a go. Who knew it would work for me??! I understand that it doesn't work for everybody that's tried it but it does for me. The only drawback is that they don't smell like the scents it says it is on the tube. But the comment that one person made was that the 'scent' disappeared after about 5-10 minutes so it's not something that should be used if you want a scent: it's designed to leave NO scent! And as I say, I have found it works 100% for me. Buy the small tubes to see what/if it works for you. I like the silver spruce the best & will be ordering more when I have used what I have.

Love Lume! Just try it!
I sweat easily, and absolutely LOVE Lume deodorant. It works beautifully, scented or unscented. I wouldn't say it works 72 hours, but 24 for sure, MAYBE 48. But especially if you're showering every day that doesn't matter.
The fact that it is natural means that the scent isn't overpoweringly chemical, which is what we're used to with brands like Dove. This may explain some of the bad reviews. But it makes sense to me that deodorant has the primary role of PREVENTING body odor. if you want to smell really good wear scented body lotion or perfume as well. There are natural ones that smell amazing.
Also, Lume makes it clear that because they're not using aluminum, you still sweat, since your pores aren't being blocked. However, I noticed it still reduces sweating a lot, and I don't smell bad at all, even at the end of a hot day in the south.
As for burning, I noticed that the scented ones do sting a tad bit RIGHT after shaving. This doesn't scare me because... put lemon extract on your freshly shaved pits at it will sting. I'm assuming it's the natural extracts or salts in there that cause the stinging, and it's very light. It lasts like 10 seconds so I don't really care. It's a very small price to pay for something natural instead of toxic chemicals.
Last but not least, Lume has AMAZING customer service! I have contacted them twice. They will respond fast and refund you in full if you aren't satisfied with their product. I was recently told by my doctor that I had a fruit extract allergy. I had to replace all of my beauty products, and Lume was great with replacing the deodorant they had just sent me.

IT’S WORTH IT !
ABSOLUTELY WORKS AND IS WORTH IT!
I guess it depends on the person tbh because it does exactly what it said it would, while I’ve been using it…
I was referred this by my sister whom have been using it for a good while, maybe 2mths or so. She kept stressing to me that it really works, that they’ll be no stenches even after sweating !
I got it for my private, not much my armpits or anything but it does work for that as well. So my rundown is—I was very skeptical at first even tho my sister kept stressing to me how much it worked, I just usually don’t trust anything because most things lie. But after testing her
( (checking her armpits) which she said she got it for) ), I noticed she literally didn’t smell like anything. Absolutely nothing. So when I decided to bite the bullet and purchase my own, I tested on little closed areas, like the back of my ears..my first thought was I hated the smell of the deodorant, I bought “sweet lily” but the one my sister had “warm vanilla” smelled worse than mine. So that alone was good enough for me. Anyway after applying it, it'll smell bad AT FIRST, but the smell fades away after maybe 10mins to an hour (again, depending on the person) and as you continue to use it you’ll get used to the smell. So after using it for back of my ears as a tester, it literally didn’t smell like anything throughout the whole day. Then i moved on to my armpits, same results. Needless to say I was sold on the deodorant and I used it for my private (which was my initial reason for purchase) and IT WORKS!
Reminder: All of these results were after sweating and moving throughout the day, no stenches. It works. Will continue to use it, lol I’ll actually pile up on the deodorant. I’ve never came across a deodorant that stops odor FR, even after sweating ..NEVER!
After appliance, I am literally always checking myself throughout the day to see if it’ll be a flaw and the odor comes back (because I’m in that much shock it works) but it doesn’t, it’s practically nonexistent. I am so grateful for this, words cannot describe it enough.
I hope they never change a single thing about the deodorant, because I see me being a permanent user !

Feeling Good about myself again
After having a vaginal hysterectomy two years ago I’ve developed an odor I’ve tried other odor blocker’s but nothing seem to work. I seen this product on Facebook and figured what do I have to lose so I ordered it within a couple applications the Oder was gone I was very surprised because I thought that this was just another Sell to get your money, but it really does work! I feel fresh and odor free.Thank you lume for this product,I definitely do recommend this

I really didn’t think this was going to…
I really didn't believe this product would work & that it could stop my body odor. Not only has it taken care of my underarms but it's highly effective on every area of the body ladies. I did have to apply a small amount everyday for the 1st week until my body fully acclimated to Lume‘. After the 1st week, I only needed to apply it every 3 days. That’s it! The sweating takes a little getting used to bc my old deodorants were also anti-perspirants, so that was def the weirdest part for me. Although, even when I get a bit sweaty, I'm still 💯 odor free. I love that there's no harsh chemicals or dangerous metals like aluminum in Lume‘. Regardless, I still would've purchased it bc it's super effective at stopping all body odor. I think it's a fantastic & life changing product for those with serious body odor issues. However, I would note, the scents are not strong and that's bc Lume’ is NOT a traditional deodorant drown in chemicals & perfumes. Therefore, none of the scents last longer than 5 minutes (post application). I like this aspect of Lume‘ bc it never clashes with whatever perfume or body oil I'm wearing unlike traditional deodorants that have intense long lasting scents. With that said, I would stick to buying the Clean Tangerine, Coconut Crush, Twisted Lime, Lavender Sage or Jasmine Rose. They all smelled fresh, clean & lovely. I'm not going to lie, the Warm Vanilla is kinda gross. Lume’ is absolutely amazingly effective...IT WORKS! Give it a week & you'll smell the difference...or rather YOU WON'T SMELL IT🤣😂🤣

This stuff actually works!!!
I'll admit that I was a bit sceptical when I made my first purchase of their sample pack deodorant. I saw one of their ads on facebook and thought I'd give it a try anyway. One of my main concerns was my feet which sweat and stink all the time. I was pleasantly surprised that it actually works. My feet are finally stink free!
I can't say if it actually lasts 72 hours like they claim as I apply it once a day, everyday, right after showering. I did forget to do this once and my feet were still stink free so it did last for 48 hours.
Their customer service is great too. I placed two more orders from them. One of the orders hasn't been fulfilled in 2 weeks so I contacted them and they promptly responded explaining that they had delays due to a large number of orders as well as necessary Covid precautions that are being taken and would get to it as soon as possible. In about 3 days from then it shipped and arrived within 5 days of shipment.

24 hours and still good
24 hours and still good. I was skeptical at first. Anything moist that I put in my underparts automatically start to stink so I honestly didn’t expect the cream to work at all. I have been using FDS and adding Vagisil powder on my panty liner for years and by the end of the day I am stinky anyway. I decided I would give an honest review of Lume and not use any products with it. I have been a full 24 hours with 1 application. I have been through my fair share of hot flashes. I wear Polyester uniform at work, I have peed at least 15 times and I have had my daily BM. By now I should be really funky but I’m not. I feel as fresh as I was when I applied it 24 hours ago. I have to say this product does have an odor that smells like ass. I thought “great, I’m going to cover the smell of ass with the smell of ass.” That first hint that you get only last a few seconds. After that it is completely odor free from that point on. I am almost sure that even my BM didn’t stink. You get nothing, no smell what so ever. Truly a miracle in a tube. Anyone that still have odor after using this product should go see their OB GYN. There is obviously something going on down there that this stuff can’t help.

So far this stuff is like magic
My mother and I both started using Lume a little under a week ago and so far I have to say I'm beyond impressed. The silly ads got me interested, but the science must really be there because neither of us have noticed ANY scent wherever we apply (the scented deodorants leave a slight scent upon application that goes away over time). It does smell a little bit weird on its own but when applied I guess it just works with body chemistry to render one odorless.
The real test will be the middle of the summer but as of now I have been recommending this to friends and am VERY satisfied!
