![]() ![]() The Promise: "Clinically proven 72-hour odor control." However, this wasn't an issue at all when I used my hands to apply. Two mornings I did remember to apply Lume before putting a shirt on, and that solved the wet shirt issue, but it didn't solve my having to stand and wait for my pits to dry. ![]() It did come out in the wash, so no long-term stains, but it also had me changing my shirt every morning after already getting dressed-I'm just not interested in starting my day with soggy underarms. Speaking of getting all over my clothes, when I used the applicator, the lotion-like moisture transferred from my pits to my shirt every time I applied it, and darkened the armpit area of my shirt. I feel firmly that applying by hand is the only way to go with this stuff it's the only way to stop it from being wet wet wet and getting all over my clothes. I then took to using my hands to apply this deodorant, and things were much improved. I had to wipe some off, then try reapplying a few times, and honestly it just made a mess and didn't feel good. I released the smallest amount I could-one twist of the dial-then gave it a swipe under my arms and rubbed it in for 4-5 seconds like the directions suggest.and then stood there with my arms out waiting for it to dry and praying for it to not get on my shirt (my prayers were not answered) for a few minutes. I gave it a week of use with the applicator, and I was kind of miserable every day that week. They also suggest it might take up to a week to get the hang of finding the appropriate amount to use. Lume does advise very clearly that a little goes a long way and to start small. I wouldn't call it "runny," per se, but it's much less creamy than the body lotion I use after shaving my legs. The Reality: A very wet experience with the applicator better when you use your hands.ĭespite all the talk of the creamy, lotion-like consistency of Lume deodorant, I wasn't expecting it to be as thin as it is.

Lume Deodorant Quick Facts Cost *I've tried by Humankind, Myro, Kopari, and while our reviews weren't written by me, I've also tried Native and Schmidt's. (I found Lume's consistency to be more lotion-like than Schmidt's.) Read on to see how using Lume went for me! ![]() I decided to purchase the stick so I'd have the option of using the applicator, but I am comfortable applying deodorant with my hands-I learned this from my first-ever natural deodorant experience, with Schmidt's jar deodorant. Both contain the same creamy formula the only difference is that the tube deodorant must be applied using your hands, whereas the stick acts as an applicator. Lume deodorant is sold both in stick form and in tube form. In terms of what Lume doesn't include-leaving out potentially harmful ingredients like aluminum and sulfates, as well as common sensitive skin irritants like baking soda and essential oils-it's in good company with the other natural deodorants I've tried.* But two things that set it apart from the others is that its formula has a creamy consistency and that it's marketed as a product you can use for odor protection on any external part of your body. As I continue on my quest to find the best natural deodorant for me, I couldn't skip over Lume. ![]()
