How Does Lume Deodorant Work?
Lume blocks the ability for bacteria to consume fluids like sweat, semen, urine, and blood that lead to odor while maintaining the healthy physiological pH of our skin; Completely stopping odor-causing reactions on external skin in its tracks.
How to Use Lume Deodorant?
“Elevate up a trace amount of Lume from the propel stick and swipe your underarms for 4-5 seconds until clear and then stop. For other parts of your body, elevate up a trace amount of Lume and swipe the top with your fingertip and apply just a few times a week after showering. For the tube, a small pea-sized amount will do the trick!”

My Review After Using Lume Deodorant
I have tried to wear regular deodorants, but I did not last a half a day without sour armpits. I found a few extra-strength deodorants that covered me for most of the day, but they just did not feel right. I felt like my armpits needed a detox due to the odd feeling and chemical like smell my armpits would have at the end of the week. So my search for right deodorant went on.
Discovery
One day I saw a quirky but charming video on Facebook about Lume deodorant. The commercial claimed Lume deodorant was aluminum-free, which means it doesn’t trap toxins inside your body. Also, it provided 72 hours of protection from odors that come from our bodies as it stops the odor from happening in the first place. Best of all, it claimed it could be used on private lady parts as it doesn’t have any odd chemical that would cause any nasty rashes around your sensitive areas.
Ordering and Shipping
All this sounded too good to be true, so I had to try it. I ordered the Lume unscented combo pack, which included unscented deodorant and unscented cream for private areas. The whole ordering was simple. And I received the product in about three days. I was disappointed to find the deodorant had spilled into the top and down the side of the stick.
First Impression
Although disappointed, I dabbed a bit out and tried it on my underarms first. To my surprise, It wasn’t sticky and didn’t leave any residue. Being overweight, I also tend to sweat in other intimate parts of my body, such as between legs/thighs and sometimes under the breast.
I usually used deodorants in these areas of my body, but similar to my armpits, they made me feel and smell as if I wasted my money. I tried the Lume product from the tube on my lady parts, and it dissolved quickly into my skin, leaving me with the feeling as it was not ever applied.
72 hrs odor-free-claim to the test
Day one was quite satisfying as I experienced no smelly or sweaty pits or thighs, which is quite rare for me as I usually feel the need to refresh myself midday. Lume deodorant actually kept me fresh for the whole day.
On day two, I decided not to take a shower for the sake of the experiment. It was tough but thought of it as a noble sacrifice for the greater good of humanity: so fresh clothes, no shower, and no further application of deodorant. I went about my normal day and was surprised after a whole day of working and staying busy; the deodorant still had me covered. I had no sweat, smell, and stain-free pits.
Day three was mentally the hardest as the urge to take a long shower kept bugging me, so I gave in. Although I did not feel absolutely disgusting, I could feel it wearing off a bit. But by then, I was already super impressed by the performance. I finally found my body’s soul mate.
I think everyone knows that feeling of relief that washes over you when you finally find a product that is a perfect match for your needs. Lume deodorant is ideal if you are looking for a natural aluminum-free deodorant. Even though the cost for a tube is $18.99 and stick for $13.99, it is still a sound investment.
Customer Service
As far as the meltdown and poor packaging of the deodorant was concerned, I wrote an email to the company, suggesting better packaging to prevent melting or running of the deodorant. Customer service was fast, professional, and super friendly. To my surprise, they sent me a coupon that allowed me to get a deodorant free. And this time, the deodorant was not melted and slid out of container smoothly onto my skin.
Final Thoughts of my Experience
Overall, I would highly recommend Lume deodorant because of its natural and aluminum-free properties. It saved me from wasting a lot of time, money, and hassle of applying and replying deodorants all day. Now I use Lume deodorant once in the morning, and I am odor-less for the whole day.
So am I going to repurchase it? yes
Am I going to suggest others to buy it too? Definitely yes
