Lume Full Body Deodorant - Soft Solid Bar - 72 Hour Odor Control - Aluminium-Free, Bicarbonate Free and Skin Safe - 2.6oz (Pack of 2) (Soft Powder)

I tried Lume because my postpartum body odor was too strong for my usual natural deodorant, and I’m a natural deo user only and didn’t want anything with aluminum or phthalates. There was an adjustment period, to say the least. At first it seemed to make my body odor worse—as if it smelled like someone else’s body odor. It was gross. I’d read online about how it initially stinks as the mandelic acid is killing off bacteria, though. The smell improved as it dried after application, so I pushed through since I didn’t want to buy yet another deodorant. My body seemed to need a week or two, then the funk of the initial adjustment got a lot better. And once I had adjusted, it was really, really effective at completely changing the smell of my armpits to the soft powder scent. I usually use a quick swipe morning and evening and I basically never smell BO anymore even though I don’t shower every day. So that’s pretty great, but the actual life-changing part is that Lume has completely solved my armpit irritation. I’ve always been prone to rashes and shaving bumps, to the point where I don’t own many sleeveless tops. I thought it was just unavoidable with shaving, since the only way to get rid of it entirely has been not shaving my armpits. However, during the adjustment period with Lume I decided to shave to see if that helped the funk, and lo and behold, apparently the irritation was caused by every other deodorant I’ve ever used in my entire life, and with Lume I can shave without any irritation. Incredible. 10 stars. Will rebuy. Side note, I won’t rebuy the soft powder scent, since it’s too strong and smells a little fake. I’m hoping that vanilla or lavender might work better for me, since I’m used to smelling more like essential oils than an air freshener.

What a waste of money! This "deodorant" is so expensive and so useless!! I smelled bad almost immediately - like I had a reaction to it or something - yuk - and I bought the 2 pack - wahhhhh!! I would like to return it and get my money back but they don't have a guarantee that it will work or anything like that. So, so disappointed!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Absolutely performs as advertised! Can also be used in skin folds so no odor develops. It’s an expensive deodorent, but even after four days without a shower (long story involving travel to Italy, an accident resulting in a cast and a tub/shower that was totally unsafe for me to enter)it kept me odor free.

As good as the cream version, just different. This works as good as the cream version, it is just different in that it comes in a convenient stick. This keeps the smell at bay really well. It is NOT an antiperspirant, so I still get wet under my arms a bit, but the smell is not there. I dont mind because Its my opinion that sweating is good for you. Now, the stick can leave a slight bit of clear residue on the arm pit area of tank tops. The cream version in a tube, does not. I think there is a time and place for both. I have used every smell they carry. It no longer matters to me because the fragrance disappears in about 1-2 min. So in the end it turns unscented.

I was accustomed to wearing only the minted cucumber scented deodorant. It was time to try out other deodorant by Lume. I am liking this soft powder scent thus far because it is actually a softer smell.
