You're not crazy. My microphone wasn't plugged in all the way and while editing I knew I didn't have time to reshoot and I thought "this video won't do well anyway, I've got so many others that show my filming and sound skills accurately" ....60k views later....
I like your style of editing, camera work and explaining the product. You cover a lot of topics that I am grateful to listen. You also seem to have a good attitude.
I've never seen one of your videos before, and I just have to say, the second tou started talking, you just sound so kind and loving and ...wonderful? Lol. I cant explain it, but you just have one of those very pleasant voices that make you want to listen. You would be great at voiceovers or audio books or things like that. ❤
Late to the party but I had got an add for this product then wanted to know more so I googled it and got this video. Upon starting it I was captivated by all the things you said. What great presence she has. The review presented was well done, honest, very informative. Need to check for an updated review.
Maybe 4 someone who doesn't have ur condition might last 72 or 96 hrs. But also Hyperhydrosis has to do with ph balance bacteria sweat and microbiome imbalance sometimes even not getting enough vitamins and minerals. I sugges t trying sage tea
The alternative (and cheaper) options at the end of this video were super helpful. Especially since the Lume is pretty pricey for the quality of packaging, product, etc.
I used A&H for a long time and really liked it. I recently tried Lume but it's been eh, only ok. I find that it works until I really start sweating and then I still stink. BUT interestingly, if the sweat dries, the smell goes away instead of sticking around until I shower like usual. A&H still wins for me but before I give up on Lume I do want to try treating my clothes as they suggest because I haven't done that.
I recently tried Lume & my experience was really different than yours. I don’t love the scented Juniper Berry one. I generally don’t love lavender so I didn’t order that one. I also got an unscented, which I prefer. It smells a little earthy / not great / not horrible, but either way the scent disappears very quickly after applying. I actually am AMAZED by the effectiveness. For me it does work for 72 hours. I literally rub my hands under my pits and underboob area to test and I can stick that hand right on my nose and smell zero sweat, zero musk, zero anything. It’s like magic. I tried it on the bikini area, but that left an odd scent, l think I just prefer my natural lady vibe down there :) I agree the price is high and I think this product could be delivered to the skin better with a roller ball type stick. I just put a little dab and rub it in with my fingers because you really don’t have to use much. Since I bought it I only used regular deodorant once or twice becaus my armpit skin was feeing clammy
Genielle Burrows I agree with you 100%. Not for the lady bits. Lasts for me at least 48 hours. Even after a shower before bed I do not apply until the morning. Used to have to apply after I dried my body because by morning I would have a musk. Not anymore.
🤗 these are my favorite types of reviews on products. When one can elaborate thoroughly it makes it a bit easier to choose. I love yelping a variety of foods and restaurants experiences, but not personal hygiene products lol. Guess this will be something to explore and experience this year😁
I use Lume for about 6 months and just introduced my sister to it. She loves it. This the first deodorant that has EVER worked for me. I only use it under my arms the 1st day I had less smell but not no smell ,but by day 3 I was amazed no smell. 1. Watch with real soap,not dove or other beauty bars. I used Dr. Bronners. 2. Dry area well. When I do these things, I'm good.
I agree! The directions even say that you need to wash and dry completely before using the product. Aside from that, those who are saying it's pricey aren't taking into consideration that you can use it once every 3 days for it to work properly and you only need half a pea-sized amount for it to work so a little goes a very long way. Also, if you buy two, you get free shipping. All in all, it ultimately costs the same as regular deodorant because with regular deodorant you are buying three or four times the amount as Lume. It's 100% worth it.
I'm going to try that( I hate the after feeling when i use dove)..my armpits get so rancid it turns me off and i wish I can run home but I have to stay at work😭. It's hard living life outside my home on the daily...i hope Lume will work better for me because all other deodorants didn't. Which Dr. Bronner do you use...ill try the unscented if they have one.
Thanks for your review Hallease. I started using Lum'e in June 2019, I purchased the unscented tube which came to $19+ free shipping. I am happy I got the tube, it allows better control because I can apply the product with ease all over and a little goes a long way. I am almost out of product and it is Christmas. I choose Lume' because it was invented by a woman, an OB/GYN, amazingly beautiful funny ads, baking soda and aluminium free ( I am super sensitive to these 2 ingredients). I have an auto- inflammatory disorder that effects my sweat glands, I perspire quite a bit and it causes a lot of skin issues in the areas Lume' can be applied. Lume worked from day 1 for me, I didn't need to detox from my previous antiperspirants. This product has literally changed my life, NO sweating on most days, and when I do sweat it is significantly less. No odor , this blew my mind, and because I had little to no sweat my skin did not flare !!! Another amazing part is I can go 5 days with out reapplying and stay fresh and dry after every shower. I absolutely LOVE this product!!
Lume worked for me, up to 72 hours! I would prefer a stronger scent, but because I didn't have any body odor under my armpits, I'm sold with the product. Each of us has different body odors, so one review, by one person, might need other reviews to give consumers a better view of each product. Thanks for your candid review!
I also live in Texas and my first and only aluminum free deodorant I tried was Tom's guaranteed for 24 hours and I was stankin' after 6-8 hours to the point of grossing myself out. I went back to aluminum after a couple weeks and then my sister mentioned she uses Lume.
Here is a tip... Stinking really bad is many times a buildup of toxins. In your system. Strenuous workout and sweating with release these toxins. Don't be afraid to sweat especially in controlled setting! Excercise and dont bs yourself. Texas heat depends on your location in Texas also. Its a piece of cake in the dry areas compared to humid.
I agree 100 with Micah AP. I go through stages of excessive sweating because of my medications and I live in Florida...very hot and humid. I tried and gave up natural deodorant twice because my own new smell was literally disgusting me. I smelled worse and different than ever before. I read about the detox and realized my 10 year old very sweaty boy has only ever used an aluminum free deodorant and has never had the smell I was smelling. He gets stinky but not that stink. I tried again with all natural refusing to give up and after 2.5 weeks that smell never happened again. My bacteria in my body had changed and the aluminum and toxins were completely out and now I have no issues.
Although it was kinda funny the way she did it....it normally irritates the hell outa me when any1 does that. Just say what they are.....and I think that goes for adults & kids. I never taught my kids to call their body parts anything but what they were cuz I just don't understand the point in using some goofy or babyfied term.
love the honesty in your review and Appreciate it! Just bc we are told something is good for us or natural, we still need to be "buyer beware" and reviewers that take it for the team so to speak are a blessing!
So one thing I appreciate is when companies don't spend a lot of money on the packaging. More money goes into keeping up with the ingredients instead of package design. But I love this review. 🤗
I've been using lume for the past couple of weeks and have been enjoying it! One thing you gotta watch out for is the odor in clothing thing, it is real. One day I smelled just fine but my shirt smelled oh-so-funky in this summer heat!
My 10 year old grandson has delays but is also beginning puberty. In the past, even with a pullup on at night, would DRENCH his bed. His sweating is terribly nasty and we can't afford to be throwing out clothes. We use the lysol sanitizer for using to wash clothes, along with tide detergent. Also use natures miracle stain and odor remover with the tide if the clothes and bedding still smelled bad. We don't have hard water. We also use fabric softener and sometimes scent beads just because we like the scent, once the initial odor is removed. Hope this helps
Try Persil laundry detergent. I've found it has gotten the stink out from clothes that has appeared from using natural deodorants before I started using Lume.
So glad I found this review. I'm a Jersey girl frying in the desert of El Paso. I wanted to see if I could get away from aluminum based deodorants and all I've tried have failed. I have wanted to give Lume a try but reluctant due to price and relatively newness. Thanks for this! ❤
Im glad you mentioned you still wear aluminum based products. Thats my struggle. I'd love to switch to all natural products but man. Some that I've tried do not do a great job at keeping the funk away lol. I use aluminum based products out of necessity. I live in GA. I can't be out here in peak summer heat smelling like fresh onions lol. I do like the recommendation of switching between natural and aluminum products tho. That might work a bit better.
Yeah, I've noticed that alot of people will comment on natural deodorants and they live in very temperate places and I'm just like 😑 do you know how hot it truly gets here?!
I definitely agree. I definitely try to switch between aluminum and natural deodorants. I have started only wearing aluminum deodorant when I know I have to go out. Work, shopping, working out, dates. And wear natural deodorants when I know I am going to be in the house i.e. weekends, time off, lounging around the house etc.
Aluminum is completely natural. It is one of earth's most abundant elements and is found everywhere - in food, water, and soil. Crystal stick deodorant uses potassium alum, a benign natural mineral salt. It's basically a stone with no scent whatsoever. It's effectiveness is almost universally testified to. I've been using it over twenty years (a stick can last for years). I thought I'd try Lume for something different. PS. Some forms, like aluminum chlorohydrate, need to be used sparingly but are still considered safe. Manufacturers must strictly abide by allowed amounts in deodorants and anti-perspirants.
@@patriceplans I'm sticking with Crystal, Patrice. Despite my initial enthusiasm, the negative reviews left me wary. Crystal is next to 100% effective for me, so I asked myself why I should change (if it's not broken, why fix it).
This is what I have found with using any natural products...in this case deodorant, starting out you will have to reapply for the first few days. I usually take my deodorant with me to work and reapply until my body adjusts.
I would love to see a comparison between Native and Lume. so tempted to try them but I'm tired of spending money to see what works. and these are pricey...
A. R. I have tried both. Native turned my pits dark. Lumē for me is the best. Now keep in mind it keeps stink away not wetness. I also tried straight baking soda with a few drops of melaleuca oil. This too darkened my pits. Now I am convinced it is the baking soda I react to. I stayed dry and stink free. But I like to go sleeveless.
I'm late to the party, but I just want to point out something. I tried Lume when it first came out and I broke out, it didn't work, in a few hours after showering and applying there was body odor. Now, along the way I've tried everything.. Natiive, Schmidts, Tom's of maine, Lavanila, megababe, arm and hammer, Kopari...ect...ect...ecttt expensive brands, cheap brands, all of it and most gave me rashes and I'd have body odor within a few hours. So I stopped using deodorant...all of it, I'd wash my armpits with lemon face wash then put lemon on after (helps with odor) and just dealt with it for about 2 months, I came back to trying all my natural deodorants and what I found was less rashes, but no odor control, so I thought I'd give Lume a tried again, with little hope and it worked! I am so happy, I am actually going on 24 hours without applying again and no scent whatsoever, good or bad, just nothing! No rash or irritation. I think detoxic from conventional deodorant/antiperspirant is an absolute must before trying any natural deodorants and expecting them to work.
Love your honest review. I've used natural deodorant most of my adult life. Crystal was the best until I found a diy by Bushbaby. Tea tree oil and a tablespoon of liquid magnesium oil (key ingredient) coconut oil, bentonite clay and arrowroot. I use it about 3x a week now but used everyday when I first started using it. I've been using it Everywhere! Before Lune came out. It is so good I make for women who have to constantly reapply deodorant throughout the day. Tried it on a sweaty man working in my yard in 90 degree temps. He was astonished. The best stuff in the world for navel, behind the ear, and athlete's foot smells. No break outs or irritation. No staining cc logging because it is a cream absorbed into your skin. I make all of my household cleaners, laundry detergent, and personal hygiene products including Shea butter products. Get that recipe, a tiny amount goes a long way. And it cost me $1.50 to make 6-8 month supply.
I use arm and hammer myself. I know if I have just shaved it will give me a rash so I always make sure to wait 30 minutes to an hour after shaving before applying it. It works as well as conventional deordorants on me.
A great aluminium based deodorant for hyperhidrosis is Certain Dri. Available at most stores, extremely effective (use every night for 10 nights in a row) and at $5, its the least expensive of all prescription strength deodorants. You could then follow that up in the mornings with a scented deodorant. Great review though Sis. Peace.
I live by the solid version of crystal deodorant but I believe that baking soda allergy is real, when I tried the Arm & Hammer deodorant within two days I had irritated and raw underarms. Crystal is perfect for sensitive skin, definitely not 24 hour for a sweaty girl like me. It's an 6-8 hour deodorant in the summer, but this time of year I'm doing two showers daily anyway.
Thank you so much for your review. Love your personality!! I don't find Lumē to be expensive lol. I purchased Carpe for my 10 year old grandson going thru puberty and being bullied at school because we couldn't find anything to control his BO. He only uses it once or twice a week now and uses Axe (eeewwe) the rest of the week. The combo of the 2 work for him. Each person has a different make up and different things will work for different people
I was struggling for the past few months with such odor even just a couple of hours after showering and washing up at least twice a day and reapplying deodorant to my body sometimes three times per day. THANK GOD, I just received my Lume on Thursday. Didn't follow instructions but started on Friday with one application no odor, Saturday worked out, cleaned house, no odor slight perspiration, Sunday, no odor and now Monday, noon no odor. More than 72 hours some perspiration but so far so good. Loving it! Even my husband today, still going strong with no odor with only one application as well. It just goes to show you, everyone is so different. Normally, I don't give reviews so early in using a new product but all I can say is WOW! Highly recommend this product!
Fortunately, Lume updated the packaging. Lavender keeps mosquitoes away. I switched to this deodorant to get away from aluminum. The more meat you eat the more you will stink. The price point is high they have to make a buck. I have used crystal and it was totally ineffective if you sweat it will not stop the stink. This is pretty good as a deodorant goes.
Thank you for this video as I was getting drawn into the ads as well. I was thinking of purchasing this for my husband as he suffer from it as well. I would try it too of course. The only thing that does seem bad is the price of course. By the way I just had to write and let you know I subscribed to your channel because I think you have a wonderful energy and I will be watching more of your videos.
This happens to me periodically once I have used a deodorant for a while, though I think I am particularly sensitive scented/aluminum based products. That's all to say that I am currently using an arm and hammer deodorant and it seems to be working great
I'm thankful the Arm & Hammer Unscented clear worked for me because it's so reasonably priced. The only one I had a problem was with Secret Clinical; it continue to burn even after I washed it off.
PLEASE - Before making the switch to a so called “natural” deodorant, first check and research every ingredient in it. Some actually contain forms of toxic aluminum. I researched many of these so called “natural” deodorants, and most include some toxic or harmful ingredients. Most of them will also stain your clothing. The only real natural way to control underarm odor is by using some form of acid. Acids kill the germs that cause the odor. I use undiluted white vinegar. Some people swear by lemon juice. For help with underarm sweating, I use baby powder, but am careful not to breath it in while applying. Other talcs and baking soda are good alternatives, although some people are allergic to baking soda. I have found that the vinegar and baby powder that I am using do need to be applied each morning and night. You can “google” natural ways to control underarm odor and sweating, if you are interested in making the switch from the standard deodorants/antiperspirants which contain toxic aluminum.
I'm so glad you did this video! I tried Lume a while back and got the lavender scent. I think mine is mixed with basil or something as well but it has a reverse effect with my natural scent. I felt like I smelled worse than if I didn't wear anything at all. It felt like must trying to cover up with an herb and now it's herb funk. I want to give it another try when summer ends and the temps cool off, but I'm not super hopeful. I want to try the Type A brand next...again, once the heat eases up. Thanks for the review girl!
OMG. I've been watching the ads for this for a while now. I purchased Native deodorant a while back and it smelled SO BAD I think I just threw it away. But, you are beautiful, adorable, hilarious, and I love your descriptive bits and I love, Love, LOVED your review!
Great review! I tried Lume from May 2019 to right after the new year. Your assessment of the product is spot on (except for me, their product under-scent, that earth tone smell you described, did not jive with my nether region, making stench rise that otherwise wouldn't). Like you, I got enticed by their awesome marketing and promise of 72 hour protection. But, alas, with Lume, applying everyday was an absolute requirement. Showering at night, still required a reapply in the AM. And if I did not reapply after the night shower, a pits rewash was definitely in order. To put this in perspective, I have always been able to skip deodarant a day (though I usually didn't) experiencing 36 to 48 hours protection with commercial deodarents and antiperspirants. And I never found a natural deodarent I liked (Crystal, the actual rock form (never saw the version you have), Tom's, or JASON), except for one; the homemade baking soda based stick one that I made myself. It was AWESOME in both scent and effectiveness. That is until it quickly became clear that the pits couldn't handle baking soda. ☹️Anyway, I saw an advert for Native over the holidays which offers several scents for men and women, in regular (with baking soda) and sensitive formulas. (They don't advertise full body protection but they make body washes and bar soap too.) I said, what the heck, and ordered some. Needless to say, Lume has been shelved! Now I'm back to being able to skip a day. And, if I choose, I can even repeat a shirt with pits still melling like the deodarent (my OCD won't usually let me though. 😂😂). I'm curious if you've tried Native.
I use store brand Desitin on my bikini area after a shower and especially after shaving. I find I don't have any odor when I use it and I sweat at the mere mention of sunlight. It's $3 - $4 for a tube and it lasts a pretty long time because you only need to use a small amount.
Thank you for your honesty! I have hyperhydrosis and it is the bane of my life. I use lavender oil on my bikini line, under boobs and on top of thigh area...and I also use it on tp as a wet wipe.It is fairly inexpensive...I use it straight but it can be mixed with a good carrier oil. It is a natural anti fungal and so kills that odour because it combats it and it also stops any breaking out of the skin from an overgrowth of fungus.It must be pure and not a mix...easily available on Amazon...note: do not feel you need the most expensive because I buy the almost cheapest...as long as it says it is a pure oil it is fine...it is grown in France which some think is best but Bulgaria also grows it and it is much cheaper and fine.Also look for the size...some show what looks like a fairly large bottle but turn out to be either 10ml or only one ounce...I get four ounce bottles for usually 16ish bucks and one bottle will last me almost a month. If you get a small darkend glass sprayer bottle it works very well. I hope this is helpful...always test to see how your skin reacts to natural oils! I hope to see much more of you!!!!
You are so darn cute! I loved your review. I’m currently using Lume, and still deciding if it’s for me. I don’t sweat very much, but I seriously don’t see this working for 72 hours.
I was kind of confused and I may have missed when you were talking about the product not lasting for 72 hours. You were talking about the Lume (strictly a deodorant) and other antiperspirants. The purpose of Lume is just for a deodorant, not to stop sweat so isn't just the odor aspect that it's helping for a few days. The thing this product claims to do and you didn't mention is it kills the bacteria that causes odor, which many deodorants do not that I know of. I also have hyperhidrosis in my pits and have just learned to deal with it because I just don't care about it as much anymore. There are certain fabrics that do make me perspire more and I will honestly use panty liners to help, so there's a tip if you don't want to use the aluminum products. I've also looked into getting Botox in my pits to help with it as well but I get that people who don't want to inject things into their bodies. I've also heard of a surgery that helps with hand/feet hyperhidrosis but I'm not sure if there's one for the pits. I did order because they also offer a money back guarantee which I don't think you mentioned. Otherwise, thanks for the review. 👍
I agree with the unscented arm and hammer and also the crystal I did like the burts bee deodorant for men but of course they took it off the market . So I going to try Toms of Maine aluminum free and right now using diaper rash cream or zinc cream works great.
I work in a hot sweaty environment. Lume is the only natural deodorant that works, very well. However, for me it doesn't work for 72 hours. I need to apply daily. It is a bit on the pricey side. I like the original sent, the juniper berry smells like gin to me. Overall I like it and have been using it for about 6 months now.
I can testify that being allergic to baking soda is a thing. Currently, I haven't been able to find an aluminum-free deodorant that comes anywhere close to my aluminium deodorants and I sweat like crazy, especially when I'm stressed...which is often. So I use my natural deodorants for quick errand runs and when I know I'll be in a relaxed environment. I only break out my aluminium deodorants when I have someone to impress or I know I'll be in a stressful enviornment. I've used the stick version of the lavender Crystal deoderant, but I prefer the liquid version despite the wet feeling because it seems to work better at keeping B.O. away.
Aluminum is completely natural. It is one of the most abundant elements on earth, found everywhere, even in food. The potassium alum in Crystal is benign. Even aluminum chlorohydrate, which manufacturers use in deos and antis, is safe at the regulated amounts. They cannot deviate from them. Never feel bad about using aluminum products. Try using the classic Crystal stick/stone (lasts for years) for the quickie/relaxed mode and an aluminum anti-perspirant for the impress/stress mode.
OMG! I just found your channel while searching for reviews on Lume; I love your personality, and Definitely Jive with you,. The spirit has moved me to subscribe :) Looking forward to watching more videos
Lavalin (a.k.a. Hlavin) is the only deodorant that works for me and it works really well, even with heavy work and profuse sweating. One jar lasts me 9-10 months of daily use, so it's affordable even with a higher price point. I can't do anti-perspirant. Anti-perspirants makes me sweat so bad from my face people want to call an ambulance for me. I appreciate the Lume review. You helped me save money and time! BTW, minute 658, it's geranium (plant) not germanium (the semi-conductor, element, Ge). I hear lots of gardeners and tech enthusiasts switch the 2 words. I call it a tongue trap because they're only 1 letter different. (I hope that didn't come off as rude :/)
Oh, and I'm very VERY allergic to baking soda. My armpits get sore, inflamed, red and start peeling! I used Schmidt's SENSITIVE Jasmine and tea. Also, HEB rolled out with their own natural d.o., it's roll on. I use it when I'm around the house. Those are the only two I found that I'm NOT allergic to.
I actually been using lume for about a month now & it works amazing for me & my body chemistry. I've try the Arm & Hammer deodorant & I've also tried some other natural deodorant they did NOT work good for me at all. The natural deodorants I try left me smelling extremely musty😕 & I did develop a slight rash I was constantly itching & scratching my underarms. Lume Works amazing for me I'm so happy that I found this product.🤗
You're lucky. Lume doesn't last 5 hrs for me and my armpits smell really bad. I carefully followed ALL their directions too. Big waste of $$. Big disappointment.
Lol your descriptions and honesty makes me chuckle. Thank you! The Arm and hammer Fresh smells so good but for me wears off after 2-3 hours so I do have to reapply. I might try the men’s version
Schmidt’s is my go to natural deodorant and the baking soda ones work best for me. I use a natural power from Chagrin Valley Soap and Salve to freshen other parts of my body.
Thank you for the review!!! Wish I had seen it before ordering Lume. I was 2 secs from ordering the Arm & Hammer but decided to try Lume instead. I hate the price point but I decided to try it anyway just to see then I will try the Arm & Hammer and the other one you suggested. Thanks again.
I love your review of the product. I often get sucked in by commercials and such. Now I don’t deal with many body odor problems but I appreciate that you spoke about the consistency and storage of the product. I’m a crystal girl! It’s affordable and works for me. Let those haters hate...they’ll be the ones smelling lavender seasoned onions scared to raise their arms or hands. Ps: I’m not going 3 days without applying deodorant or showering. Period. I don’t care what the claim on the bottle is and not for the sake of a review.
Thank you for the review, been thinking about trying this. Tried Schmidt but left my under arms wet. The crystal irritated my skin to the point of cracking and peeling. Always find my way back to aluminum based deodorants 😩
I don't have hyperhidrosis so take this for what it's worth... I use LONE deodorant (no baking soda or shea butter - both of which I'm sensitive to). If you've been using an aluminum based deodorant and try just switching to a natural based deodorant, *chances are very high it ain't gonna work for you* and you'll feel let down. Happened to me. Then I learned about armpit detox (basically detoxing your pits to get rid of all the junk in standard deodorants). Did it and now natural products work effectively for me. *This is just my experience* and may be worth a looksie for anyone let down by natural deodorants. *Disclaimer: the detox is a stinky time and isn't for the faint of heart!🤣*
Hello Hallease! I really enjoyed your review. I agree, the 72 hours is just too long. Lume helps with body order, , for me. I also think the product will not destroy my clothes. I do not like aluminum products.
It's true about the rashes.. I switched to natural deodorants when I heard aluminum can contribute to cancer. And I just figured it makes sense to not put harsh chemicals on my skin for days at a time. . But then I did go back to regular deodorant because I would get a nasty painful rash on my pits. Some would be as bad as lasting a few days, itchy, dry and bright red. Almost like I was inducing eczema on myself. Then I would stop the natural stuff and it would be gone. So when Lume pointed out that it was the baking soda that causes those rashes I switched. I love Lume, I also don't have any hyper-sweating condition so it works great!
I honestly thought I was the only one who didn’t experience it lasting for 72 hours. It lasts 24 hours at most for me and I don’t even have any medical conditions involving sweat or odor. I’ve been looking for a review that pointed it out so thank you for being honest and not being one of those people who get paid to falsely review products. I like it and it doesn’t give me a rash but the scent I chose I thought I was gonna like because I love lavender and I always get lavender but I think the sage makes it smell weird. I might try a different scent next time and see if I like that more. So thank you now I don’t feel alone
It used to be that when you could smell funk, you hit the shower. Nowadays, just skip the soap and water and slather on the lume. It's good for you and helps you, too!
Thank you for this review! My mom has been using it but I wanted other opinions. BTW - I am totally one of those people allergic to baking soda on my skin. I had no idea that could happen until it happened to me! A great thing to note for anyone delving into natural deodorants because the rash is no fun.
I tried both the juniper and unscented. Unfortunately it did not work well for me. While it did keep the smell away, it made my pits wet all the time. The scents are not the best in my opinion and it’s extremely pricey. I will be trying your alternatives though, thanks!!
Girl yes in this Texas weather! Thank you for your review. I try to stay away from aluminum based products but a lot of the natural products I use do not work. In like an hour after using them I smell and I'm sweating so bad. I've been wanting to try Lume'. I just need it to work for a day. Even a couple of hours would be fine. lol Even the aluminum based products I have used don't even last that long. Worth giving it a shot.
Lume did not work for me. Didn't even last 5 hours and my armpits smelled really bad !! I carefully followed ALL the directions. Big waste of $$. Big disappointment
Thank you for your review, Hallease! I'd like to try the arm & hammer deodorant since you've mentioned that "clean" scent and maybe even the unscented one. I also have hyperhidrosis of the underarms, hands and feet. I find the creamier consistencies mimick the feeling of sweat so I immediately start sweating after applying but, the ones I use and know work for me are Thinksport (bergamot/ aloe and tea flowers) and Kogi Naturals (all scents). I do live in Canada so they may not be available internationally but I would check iHerb or Amazon if you'd like to check them out.
Have you tried Hibiclens wash (chlorhexidine gluconate)? The key is to not mix it with any soap/shampoo as it will disrupt the chlorhexidine. It's what is used pre-op in the hospital instead of iodine now. They sell a body wash at any drug store these days. I use it in the summer and it kills the armpit bacteria (which are the source of the offensive scent-producing molecules). Since the surface of skin is dead kerotinocytes, you don't have to worry about pro-bacteria... all of them are bad. This will knock them down for a day or two.
For almost two years, I've tried numerous natural deodorants. The first one I tried had to much baking soda which led to darkening and peeling in my underarm area. I then created my own deodorant detox I found on RUclips until the peeling stopped. I tried Lume and experienced wetness. I tried Native and it worked for quite a while but then it stopped working. It tried Tom's. I worked for a few days and then it didn't. I then alternated between Native and the other natural deodorants still in my cupboard. I recently went back to Lume and it's working perfectly. In the summer, I tend to sweat more. I may have to use Lume with Native (I saw someone above suggested this above). We'll see.
Definitely think you should give them another a try. They have a lot more scents and their packaging is much better. Also the texture of their product is thicker and isn't going to drip out.
Thanks for this! I've been considering Lume for the mere fact that although I thought I had no allergies, I'm in fact allergic to all these natural deodorants with baking soda. 😰 I think I'll continue to wait to give this one a try and stick my apparent cancerous sticks of aluminum protection. 🤷🏾♀️
Ok, so, nearly everyone here seems to be whining about rashes with the alternatives to Lume. Have you ever tried something similar where you just rub it on everywhere it's needed? I drink lots of water all day and sweat a lot too, and what I use is a DIY blend of Lime, Lemon, Bergamot, Lavender essential oils in MCT oil. I use the MCT oil because I can initially spray it on and then run it in. And 99% of the time I only need to put it on once. Some days I put it on a second time like when I go out in the evening. I used to get the rashes and using deodorants that just wouldn't fix the odor problem. With the EOs solution I'm able to kill 2 birds in one stone. I'm new to Lume so I'm still going to have to test it out for myself, but it sounds promising.
Was intrigued by Lume commercial so looked for reviews. I LOVE Arm & Hammer Unscented (which is really a nice, substantial Citrus scent & frequently goes on sale) which I hope they keep making. Plus, er Lume, I'm not sure what's wrong with using baking soda in a deodorant product. I don't have a lot of spare income, so after I bought a very small tube of charcoal toothpaste for $2.99, I realized I have to be a more discretionary buyer. For private parts, I use cornstarch which seems to work well and is extremely inexpensive (yet a bit messy on floors unless you step in tub momentarily). It's also helpful to put on cornstarch before deodorant on armpits. (I rub in so there's no powder residue.) I don't like perfume-y smells for deodorant, but more fruity-like smells. I found a Wild Sugar Secret which I'd sometimes use before my Arm & Hammer Essentials Unscented. But it soon became unavailable, so I moved on to Passion Tango & Summer Berry which sufficed. Anyhow, I appreciated your Lume review so I could decide if I want to spend $13.99 for 2.2 oz of a product new to me.
Girl...Texas heat? You aren't kidding. They crystal type products didn't get me past noon when I was working with the public. I am glad you showed pictures of the stick, because I see it is not really a solid stick like one would think. Looks like the cream put in a fancy applicator.... You are a hoot! Thanks for your honest review.
Am I the only person who could use degree 2 times a week and be good? Cannot do that with natural deodorant tho, every day to AT MOST every other day. But now I have spirulina, it kills body odor from the inside out. I take the capsules. Before that it used to take me a yr or more to get rid of reg deodorant I used to get sick the smell of them and throw them out first, lol. So the key is to use spirulina every day to kill body odor.
I use my aunt's natural deodorant. She has a line of skin care/hair care and also some candles. (accentaroma . com) If you're trying to switch to a natural deodorant, make sure you detox your armpits!!!!!!!!!! It will help A LOT! Bentonite clay and ACV is the best I've tried so far, just mix them together and put them on your pits and let it dry like you would a face mask. People say you have to do that for 5 days without using deodorant, but I just do it the first day and go on about my business and it seems to work. The problem I have is that I have to switch out deodorants every month. I switch between my natural deodorant and lemon juice because my pits seem to "get used" to it and then it doesn't hold me as long as it used to. I've definitely tried to use an aluminum based deodorant before but they don't hold me anymore like, AT ALL. I get so goddamn funky is such a short amount of time it's not even funny. When I first switched over, not having the antiperspirant aspect of my deodorant threw me off a little, but now I've gotten used to it lol. As long as it's not a funky sweat I'm okay with it. Mostly because breast cancer runs in my family and I don't want to help it out anymore than I have to lol.
Yes yes yes, detox first is a must and yes the actual sweating part takes getting used too, even though it's totally natural, but now I rather sweat and know that I am not harming my body with the aluminum...
Thank you so much for this in-depth review! I too, saw the commercial for the Lume deodorant and was curious about the product. I have Hidradenitis Suppurativa under both of my arms, which is basically a chronic skin condition where I get these really painful cysts in my armpits, for the most part I can help keep them at bay, but it is at the cost of me using deodorant which is something I simply cannot do. I've tried just about every form of deodorant there is, and I'm extremely particular about what products I try out because I don't want to have to deal with the bumps that will inevitably come along afterwards. Your review was not only descriptive and comprehensive, it also covered things I didn't even think to look for. I thoroughly enjoyed your energy and just overall enjoyed YOU! You definitely have a new subscriber in me, and I look forward to watching more of your videos!
Your condition happened to me after scratching profusely for about 3 days. I was using Schmidt's even though it caused my arms to dry out and itch constantly. I ended up with swollen lymph nodes and a cyst, this had never happened to me and I was in the most pain I've ever been. What deodorant would you recommend??
I watched the video, I read most of the reviews - I think there are correct responses on both sides!! I am starting a small business, which is scary. Unless you have been there you have no idea how scary it is!! I think Hallease's review was very informative but one should be very careful what they say especially towards those new businesses investing hugely (time, money, energy, thinking about it night and day) to get a company off the ground!! I know, when you put yourself out there you should expect criticism as well as compliments!!! Honesty is important, it is how we grow but kind honesty works wayyyy better!!! I will watch Hallease again, her verbiage was great and her demeanor I loved!!!
I noticed the jasmine rose which I really like, but on warm days by the time I walk home I smell worse that without lume. But only my pits. I've noticed if i prime my pits with witch hazel i dont have a problem.
Also try rubbing lemons or the juice from real lemons under your arms. Let it dry before putting on clothing. It seems simple and unrealistic but it works great, guaranteed. I wouldn’t do this every single day, maybe 2-3 times a week. I have lume too and I alternate these two. I’m trying really hard to stop using antiperspirants for good (and yes it’s hard because I also have hyperhidrosis).
I love the honest review! I got Native deodorant as a sample last year and I've been loving it, especially since I have two kiddos who are hitting puberty and don't always smell the best. 😅
The only antiperspirant/deodorant that keeps me mostly dry and not stinking i the pits is Right Guard 72 hr. I'm probably going to have to get back on Oxybutynin because unfortunately I also have hidradenitis and it's miserable when it flares up. Glad I found this video. I love your personality and vibe, so I'm looking forwars to watch your channel.
I gave lume a full and honest try as well. I have gotten TERRIBLE rashes from other natural deodorants and lume did not give me a rash at all. Oddly, it worked pretty well for the right armpit but not the left. I don't typically smell very much, but that one armpit smelled worse with lume than it would have without any deodorant at all. HOWEVER, I used it on my privates, as they can smell a bit after a workout. For that, it worked phenomenally. Also, my boyfriend's feet stink terribly, and lume is the only thing that has ever helped. I will continue using it for those areas, but not as an underarm deodorant.
i agree with your review! esp the consistency it's like a runny ceam of sorts and the unscented "scent" has a funky smell to me! but OMG this deodorant's amazing!
Regarding Arm & Hammer products... one has to be careful with baking soda. It's great stuff for some things (deodorizing a fridge, cleaning, making science a fair volcano), but I used A&H toothpaste and my Dentist told me baking soda is so abrasive it was actually "sanding off" my tooth enamel. Ended that, went with standard cheap toothpaste, no cavities since. So yeah, baking soda must be used with care. I can believe some folks would be allergic to it... but to be fair there's a percentage of the population that's allergic to almost anything (wheat, peanuts and eggs for example). The "rash" issue might be person-specific, depending on allergies.
I actually use Native and Lume (apply both at the same time ) and what one wont do the other seems to and it works. It is frustrating with how you waste more with lume so I am going to try mixing arm n hammer with Native and and see how that works out
Thanks beautiful ✨🌙 I am looking into reviews of this! The commercial whistled at me, your video made me come closer to see the quality of it. Debating on switching my deodorant.

Yeah, imagine how I feel realizing that THIS is the video that did well. 😅😅😅😅😅
@@hallease at least i know im not going crazy and you hear it too😅😅😅
You're not crazy. My microphone wasn't plugged in all the way and while editing I knew I didn't have time to reshoot and I thought "this video won't do well anyway, I've got so many others that show my filming and sound skills accurately" ....60k views later....
Hallease 😵 😂 👍
I really appreciate that you made this video (and detailed not just Lumé but two other products that also work). Thanks so much!
I like your style of editing, camera work and explaining the product. You cover a lot of topics that I am grateful to listen. You also seem to have a good attitude.
I've never seen one of your videos before, and I just have to say, the second tou started talking, you just sound so kind and loving and ...wonderful? Lol. I cant explain it, but you just have one of those very pleasant voices that make you want to listen. You would be great at voiceovers or audio books or things like that. ❤
Late to the party but I had got an add for this product then wanted to know more so I googled it and got this video. Upon starting it I was captivated by all the things you said. What great presence she has. The review presented was well done, honest, very informative. Need to check for an updated review.
Maybe 4 someone who doesn't have ur condition might last 72 or 96 hrs. But also Hyperhydrosis has to do with ph balance bacteria sweat and microbiome imbalance sometimes even not getting enough vitamins and minerals. I sugges t trying sage tea
Girl I love how u say stank its true
She has more names for body parts than I've ever come up with, lol, love it.
I liked "lady bits" lol
The alternative (and cheaper) options at the end of this video were super helpful. Especially since the Lume is pretty pricey for the quality of packaging, product, etc.
I use the A&H unscented Essentials deodorant. I really like it. In the beginning, I had irritation, but no more. It's getting hard to find in my area.
I used A&H for a long time and really liked it. I recently tried Lume but it's been eh, only ok. I find that it works until I really start sweating and then I still stink. BUT interestingly, if the sweat dries, the smell goes away instead of sticking around until I shower like usual. A&H still wins for me but before I give up on Lume I do want to try treating my clothes as they suggest because I haven't done that.
@@Nyantastic2015 Have you tried their laundry spray?
I recently tried Lume & my experience was really different than yours. I don’t love the scented Juniper Berry one. I generally don’t love lavender so I didn’t order that one. I also got an unscented, which I prefer. It smells a little earthy / not great / not horrible, but either way the scent disappears very quickly after applying. I actually am AMAZED by the effectiveness. For me it does work for 72 hours. I literally rub my hands under my pits and underboob area to test and I can stick that hand right on my nose and smell zero sweat, zero musk, zero anything. It’s like magic. I tried it on the bikini area, but that left an odd scent, l think I just prefer my natural lady vibe down there :) I agree the price is high and I think this product could be delivered to the skin better with a roller ball type stick. I just put a little dab and rub it in with my fingers because you really don’t have to use much. Since I bought it I only used regular deodorant once or twice becaus my armpit skin was feeing clammy
I love it too!!!!! And I have always been sweaty and stinky in my pits. This stuff is awesome!! Still sweaty, but not stink!!!!
Genielle Burrows I agree with you 100%. Not for the lady bits. Lasts for me at least 48 hours. Even after a shower before bed I do not apply until the morning. Used to have to apply after I dried my body because by morning I would have a musk. Not anymore.
🤗 these are my favorite types of reviews on products. When one can elaborate thoroughly it makes it a bit easier to choose. I love yelping a variety of foods and restaurants experiences, but not personal hygiene products lol. Guess this will be something to explore and experience this year😁
A. R. 😂 👍 💯
With a roller ball, if I used for my private parts, I wouldn't want to use on my underarms afterwards. (I feel you'd have to get a separate one.)
I use Lume for about 6 months and just introduced my sister to it. She loves it. This the first deodorant that has EVER worked for me. I only use it under my arms the 1st day I had less smell but not no smell ,but by day 3 I was amazed no smell.
1. Watch with real soap,not dove or other beauty bars. I used Dr. Bronners.
2. Dry area well.
When I do these things, I'm good.
I agree! The directions even say that you need to wash and dry completely before using the product. Aside from that, those who are saying it's pricey aren't taking into consideration that you can use it once every 3 days for it to work properly and you only need half a pea-sized amount for it to work so a little goes a very long way. Also, if you buy two, you get free shipping. All in all, it ultimately costs the same as regular deodorant because with regular deodorant you are buying three or four times the amount as Lume. It's 100% worth it.
I'm going to try that( I hate the after feeling when i use dove)..my armpits get so rancid it turns me off and i wish I can run home but I have to stay at work😭. It's hard living life outside my home on the daily...i hope Lume will work better for me because all other deodorants didn't. Which Dr. Bronner do you use...ill try the unscented if they have one.
Bacteria that build up in the body pores and glands
Thanks for your review Hallease. I started using Lum'e in June 2019, I purchased the unscented tube which came to $19+ free shipping. I am happy I got the tube, it allows better control because I can apply the product with ease all over and a little goes a long way. I am almost out of product and it is Christmas. I choose Lume' because it was invented by a woman, an OB/GYN, amazingly beautiful funny ads, baking soda and aluminium free ( I am super sensitive to these 2 ingredients). I have an auto- inflammatory disorder that effects my sweat glands, I perspire quite a bit and it causes a lot of skin issues in the areas Lume' can be applied. Lume worked from day 1 for me, I didn't need to detox from my previous antiperspirants. This product has literally changed my life, NO sweating on most days, and when I do sweat it is significantly less. No odor , this blew my mind, and because I had little to no sweat my skin did not flare !!! Another amazing part is I can go 5 days with out reapplying and stay fresh and dry after every shower. I absolutely LOVE this product!!
Lume worked for me, up to 72 hours! I would prefer a stronger scent, but because I didn't have any body odor under my armpits, I'm sold with the product. Each of us has different body odors, so one review, by one person, might need other reviews to give consumers a better view of each product. Thanks for your candid review!
Ok I got a lume ad before this vid lmfaooooooo 😂

Thank you so much for doing a comprehensive review. You’re the 1st person that I’ve found who used this product “all over” and I appreciate it!!
your voice is so calming i can’t take it
Living in that Texas heat gives your review that much more weight!
I also live in Texas and my first and only aluminum free deodorant I tried was Tom's guaranteed for 24 hours and I was stankin' after 6-8 hours to the point of grossing myself out. I went back to aluminum after a couple weeks and then my sister mentioned she uses Lume.
@@shannong979 did she like lume?
Here is a tip... Stinking really bad is many times a buildup of toxins. In your system. Strenuous workout and sweating with release these toxins. Don't be afraid to sweat especially in controlled setting! Excercise and dont bs yourself.
Texas heat depends on your location in Texas also. Its a piece of cake in the dry areas compared to humid.
I agree 100 with Micah AP. I go through stages of excessive sweating because of my medications and I live in Florida...very hot and humid. I tried and gave up natural deodorant twice because my own new smell was literally disgusting me. I smelled worse and different than ever before.
I read about the detox and realized my 10 year old very sweaty boy has only ever used an aluminum free deodorant and has never had the smell I was smelling. He gets stinky but not that stink.
I tried again with all natural refusing to give up and after 2.5 weeks that smell never happened again. My bacteria in my body had changed and the aluminum and toxins were completely out and now I have no issues.
I live just by Houston, yep really need an honest review
You are hilarious! describing your body parts. You just made me laugh out loud!!!! Great video!
Lol...I honestly could not tell WHICH body part she was describing.
Although it was kinda funny the way she did it....it normally irritates the hell outa me when any1 does that. Just say what they are.....and I think that goes for adults & kids. I never taught my kids to call their body parts anything but what they were cuz I just don't understand the point in using some goofy or babyfied term.
I absolutely LOVED this review! You informed me and the alternative names for body parts had me 😂. I really needed both. Thank you 🙏🏽
love the honesty in your review and Appreciate it! Just bc we are told something is good for us or natural, we still need to be "buyer beware" and reviewers that take it for the team so to speak are a blessing!
So one thing I appreciate is when companies don't spend a lot of money on the packaging.
More money goes into keeping up with the ingredients instead of package design. But I love this review. 🤗
I've been using lume for the past couple of weeks and have been enjoying it! One thing you gotta watch out for is the odor in clothing thing, it is real. One day I smelled just fine but my shirt smelled oh-so-funky in this summer heat!
🌾🌾👀🌾🌾
Odors in clothes are hard to get out! Sometimes you have to toss them out! Try baking soda and vinegar!
My 10 year old grandson has delays but is also beginning puberty. In the past, even with a pullup on at night, would DRENCH his bed. His sweating is terribly nasty and we can't afford to be throwing out clothes. We use the lysol sanitizer for using to wash clothes, along with tide detergent. Also use natures miracle stain and odor remover with the tide if the clothes and bedding still smelled bad. We don't have hard water. We also use fabric softener and sometimes scent beads just because we like the scent, once the initial odor is removed. Hope this helps
Try Persil laundry detergent. I've found it has gotten the stink out from clothes that has appeared from using natural deodorants before I started using Lume.
@@Xtalj23 I keep seeing ads for that detergent, but you know all ads make big claims. Your support of Persil carries so much more weight with me!!
I'm an East Texas girl I deal with some serious heat and I can tell u that corn starch with tea tree oil mixed in works well on the tender biddles. 😉
Hello from Tyler Texas!
Thanks for your review. Almost $20 for deodorant is so fricken ridiculous!
So glad I found this review. I'm a Jersey girl frying in the desert of El Paso. I wanted to see if I could get away from aluminum based deodorants and all I've tried have failed. I have wanted to give Lume a try but reluctant due to price and relatively newness. Thanks for this! ❤
Im glad you mentioned you still wear aluminum based products. Thats my struggle. I'd love to switch to all natural products but man. Some that I've tried do not do a great job at keeping the funk away lol. I use aluminum based products out of necessity. I live in GA. I can't be out here in peak summer heat smelling like fresh onions lol. I do like the recommendation of switching between natural and aluminum products tho. That might work a bit better.
Yeah, I've noticed that alot of people will comment on natural deodorants and they live in very temperate places and I'm just like 😑 do you know how hot it truly gets here?!
I definitely agree. I definitely try to switch between aluminum and natural deodorants. I have started only wearing aluminum deodorant when I know I have to go out. Work, shopping, working out, dates. And wear natural deodorants when I know I am going to be in the house i.e. weekends, time off, lounging around the house etc.
Aluminum is completely natural. It is one of earth's most abundant elements and is found everywhere - in food, water, and soil. Crystal stick deodorant uses potassium alum, a benign natural mineral salt. It's basically a stone with no scent whatsoever. It's effectiveness is almost universally testified to. I've been using it over twenty years (a stick can last for years). I thought I'd try Lume for something different.
PS. Some forms, like aluminum chlorohydrate, need to be used sparingly but are still considered safe. Manufacturers must strictly abide by allowed amounts in deodorants and anti-perspirants.
@@torstrasburg4274 did you like Lume any better than Crystal?
@@patriceplans I'm sticking with Crystal, Patrice. Despite my initial enthusiasm, the negative reviews left me wary. Crystal is next to 100% effective for me, so I asked myself why I should change (if it's not broken, why fix it).
If you apply Lume every day eventually you can use less and less until you can go 72 hours odor control.
This is what I have found with using any natural products...in this case deodorant, starting out you will have to reapply for the first few days. I usually take my deodorant with me to work and reapply until my body adjusts.
Did not work for me. Didn't last 5 hours. Used every day. Carefully followed ALL directions. Waste of money.
Thanks for your review. I really enjoyed the commercial also...i normally don't watch any ad over 60 seconds and it caught my attention as well.
I wish there were more channels like yours , always real , educational , to the point and sweet . Great work :))❤️❤️❤️
I would love to see a comparison between Native and Lume. so tempted to try them but I'm tired of spending money to see what works. and these are pricey...
It's in the works 😎
@@hallease How about Nuud?
A. R. I have tried both. Native turned my pits dark. Lumē for me is the best. Now keep in mind it keeps stink away not wetness. I also tried straight baking soda with a few drops of melaleuca oil. This too darkened my pits. Now I am convinced it is the baking soda I react to. I stayed dry and stink free. But I like to go sleeveless.
@@melissadelarosa224 I use Native but it only works for two days on me.
@@melissadelarosa224hello...you don't think it could be the tea tree oil?
I'm late to the party, but I just want to point out something. I tried Lume when it first came out and I broke out, it didn't work, in a few hours after showering and applying there was body odor.
Now, along the way I've tried everything.. Natiive, Schmidts, Tom's of maine, Lavanila, megababe, arm and hammer, Kopari...ect...ect...ecttt expensive brands, cheap brands, all of it and most gave me rashes and I'd have body odor within a few hours. So I stopped using deodorant...all of it, I'd wash my armpits with lemon face wash then put lemon on after (helps with odor) and just dealt with it for about 2 months, I came back to trying all my natural deodorants and what I found was less rashes, but no odor control, so I thought I'd give Lume a tried again, with little hope and it worked! I am so happy, I am actually going on 24 hours without applying again and no scent whatsoever, good or bad, just nothing! No rash or irritation. I think detoxic from conventional deodorant/antiperspirant is an absolute must before trying any natural deodorants and expecting them to work.

Love your honest review. I've used natural deodorant most of my adult life. Crystal was the best until I found a diy by Bushbaby. Tea tree oil and a tablespoon of liquid magnesium oil (key ingredient) coconut oil, bentonite clay and arrowroot. I use it about 3x a week now but used everyday when I first started using it. I've been using it Everywhere! Before Lune came out. It is so good I make for women who have to constantly reapply deodorant throughout the day. Tried it on a sweaty man working in my yard in 90 degree temps. He was astonished. The best stuff in the world for navel, behind the ear, and athlete's foot smells. No break outs or irritation. No staining cc logging because it is a cream absorbed into your skin. I make all of my household cleaners, laundry detergent, and personal hygiene products including Shea butter products. Get that recipe, a tiny amount goes a long way. And it cost me $1.50 to make 6-8 month supply.
I use arm and hammer myself. I know if I have just shaved it will give me a rash so I always make sure to wait 30 minutes to an hour after shaving before applying it. It works as well as conventional deordorants on me.
A great aluminium based deodorant for hyperhidrosis is Certain Dri. Available at most stores, extremely effective (use every night for 10 nights in a row) and at $5, its the least expensive of all prescription strength deodorants. You could then follow that up in the mornings with a scented deodorant. Great review though Sis. Peace.
Agreed, I use the prescription strength Certain Dri . It works the best compared to clinical strength deodorants.
Thank you. I'll need to try Certain Dry
I live by the solid version of crystal deodorant but I believe that baking soda allergy is real, when I tried the Arm & Hammer deodorant within two days I had irritated and raw underarms. Crystal is perfect for sensitive skin, definitely not 24 hour for a sweaty girl like me. It's an 6-8 hour deodorant in the summer, but this time of year I'm doing two showers daily anyway.
I have not even gotten through the first 3 minutes of this video and I love this woman so much hahaha

Thank you so much for your review. Love your personality!! I don't find Lumē to be expensive lol. I purchased Carpe for my 10 year old grandson going thru puberty and being bullied at school because we couldn't find anything to control his BO. He only uses it once or twice a week now and uses Axe (eeewwe) the rest of the week. The combo of the 2 work for him. Each person has a different make up and different things will work for different people
I was struggling for the past few months with such odor even just a couple of hours after showering and washing up at least twice a day and reapplying deodorant to my body sometimes three times per day. THANK GOD, I just received my Lume on Thursday. Didn't follow instructions but started on Friday with one application no odor, Saturday worked out, cleaned house, no odor slight perspiration, Sunday, no odor and now Monday, noon no odor. More than 72 hours some perspiration but so far so good. Loving it! Even my husband today, still going strong with no odor with only one application as well. It just goes to show you, everyone is so different. Normally, I don't give reviews so early in using a new product but all I can say is WOW! Highly recommend this product!
Fortunately, Lume updated the packaging. Lavender keeps mosquitoes away. I switched to this deodorant to get away from aluminum. The more meat you eat the more you will stink. The price point is high they have to make a buck. I have used crystal and it was totally ineffective if you sweat it will not stop the stink. This is pretty good as a deodorant goes.
Thank you for this video as I was getting drawn into the ads as well. I was thinking of purchasing this for my husband as he suffer from it as well. I would try it too of course. The only thing that does seem bad is the price of course. By the way I just had to write and let you know I subscribed to your channel because I think you have a wonderful energy and I will be watching more of your videos.
I use to get the arm and hammer at walmart for $1.88 pre tax. It burns so bad. Had to stop cause my skin started peeling off
Van J same thing happened to me.
Same thing it smells sooo good but the shit had me peeling like crazy
This happens to me periodically once I have used a deodorant for a while, though I think I am particularly sensitive scented/aluminum based products. That's all to say that I am currently using an arm and hammer deodorant and it seems to be working great
I'm thankful the Arm & Hammer Unscented clear worked for me because it's so reasonably priced. The only one I had a problem was with Secret Clinical; it continue to burn even after I washed it off.
You have a very unique RUclips video style and I love it.
PLEASE - Before making the switch to a so called “natural” deodorant, first check and research every ingredient in it. Some actually contain forms of toxic aluminum. I researched many of these so called “natural” deodorants, and most include some toxic or harmful ingredients. Most of them will also stain your clothing. The only real natural way to control underarm odor is by using some form of acid. Acids kill the germs that cause the odor. I use undiluted white vinegar. Some people swear by lemon juice. For help with underarm sweating, I use baby powder, but am careful not to breath it in while applying. Other talcs and baking soda are good alternatives, although some people are allergic to baking soda. I have found that the vinegar and baby powder that I am using do need to be applied each morning and night. You can “google” natural ways to control underarm odor and sweating, if you are interested in making the switch from the standard deodorants/antiperspirants which contain toxic aluminum.
I'm so glad you did this video! I tried Lume a while back and got the lavender scent. I think mine is mixed with basil or something as well but it has a reverse effect with my natural scent. I felt like I smelled worse than if I didn't wear anything at all. It felt like must trying to cover up with an herb and now it's herb funk. I want to give it another try when summer ends and the temps cool off, but I'm not super hopeful. I want to try the Type A brand next...again, once the heat eases up. Thanks for the review girl!
Yeah actual herb/lavender DOES NOT jive with me. You described it perfectly, I just smell like "herb funk"
Nontalie Morrow I had the same issue, I felt that it actually made me smell worse
OMG. I've been watching the ads for this for a while now. I purchased Native deodorant a while back and it smelled SO BAD I think I just threw it away. But, you are beautiful, adorable, hilarious, and I love your descriptive bits and I love, Love, LOVED your review!
Great review! I tried Lume from May 2019 to right after the new year. Your assessment of the product is spot on (except for me, their product under-scent, that earth tone smell you described, did not jive with my nether region, making stench rise that otherwise wouldn't). Like you, I got enticed by their awesome marketing and promise of 72 hour protection. But, alas, with Lume, applying everyday was an absolute requirement. Showering at night, still required a reapply in the AM. And if I did not reapply after the night shower, a pits rewash was definitely in order. To put this in perspective, I have always been able to skip deodarant a day (though I usually didn't) experiencing 36 to 48 hours protection with commercial deodarents and antiperspirants. And I never found a natural deodarent I liked (Crystal, the actual rock form (never saw the version you have), Tom's, or JASON), except for one; the homemade baking soda based stick one that I made myself. It was AWESOME in both scent and effectiveness. That is until it quickly became clear that the pits couldn't handle baking soda. ☹️Anyway, I saw an advert for Native over the holidays which offers several scents for men and women, in regular (with baking soda) and sensitive formulas. (They don't advertise full body protection but they make body washes and bar soap too.) I said, what the heck, and ordered some. Needless to say, Lume has been shelved! Now I'm back to being able to skip a day. And, if I choose, I can even repeat a shirt with pits still melling like the deodarent (my OCD won't usually let me though. 😂😂). I'm curious if you've tried Native.
I use store brand Desitin on my bikini area after a shower and especially after shaving. I find I don't have any odor when I use it and I sweat at the mere mention of sunlight.
It's $3 - $4 for a tube and it lasts a pretty long time because you only need to use a small amount.
Its the zinc oxide its works great at odor control
@@carolstacy810 Or gold Bond powder. Or Johnsons medicated baby powder with zinc oxide.
Thank you for your honesty! I have hyperhydrosis and it is the bane of my life. I use lavender oil on my bikini line, under boobs and on top of thigh area...and I also use it on tp as a wet wipe.It is fairly inexpensive...I use it straight but it can be mixed with a good carrier oil. It is a natural anti fungal and so kills that odour because it combats it and it also stops any breaking out of the skin from an overgrowth of fungus.It must be pure and not a mix...easily available on Amazon...note: do not feel you need the most expensive because I buy the almost cheapest...as long as it says it is a pure oil it is fine...it is grown in France which some think is best but Bulgaria also grows it and it is much cheaper and fine.Also look for the size...some show what looks like a fairly large bottle but turn out to be either 10ml or only one ounce...I get four ounce bottles for usually 16ish bucks and one bottle will last me almost a month. If you get a small darkend glass sprayer bottle it works very well. I hope this is helpful...always test to see how your skin reacts to natural oils! I hope to see much more of you!!!!
Girl!! I'm so glad I found your channel! You just have such a wonderful energy in your videos. I'm on a total quarantine binge right now!
You are so darn cute! I loved your review. I’m currently using Lume, and still deciding if it’s for me. I don’t sweat very much, but I seriously don’t see this working for 72 hours.
I was kind of confused and I may have missed when you were talking about the product not lasting for 72 hours. You were talking about the Lume (strictly a deodorant) and other antiperspirants. The purpose of Lume is just for a deodorant, not to stop sweat so isn't just the odor aspect that it's helping for a few days. The thing this product claims to do and you didn't mention is it kills the bacteria that causes odor, which many deodorants do not that I know of.
I also have hyperhidrosis in my pits and have just learned to deal with it because I just don't care about it as much anymore. There are certain fabrics that do make me perspire more and I will honestly use panty liners to help, so there's a tip if you don't want to use the aluminum products. I've also looked into getting Botox in my pits to help with it as well but I get that people who don't want to inject things into their bodies. I've also heard of a surgery that helps with hand/feet hyperhidrosis but I'm not sure if there's one for the pits.
I did order because they also offer a money back guarantee which I don't think you mentioned.
Otherwise, thanks for the review. 👍
@Mike Nelson so how has Lume been working for you?
I agree with the unscented arm and hammer and also the crystal I did like the burts bee deodorant for men but of course they took it off the market . So I going to try Toms of Maine aluminum free and right now using diaper rash cream or zinc cream works great.
I work in a hot sweaty environment. Lume is the only natural deodorant that works, very well. However, for me it doesn't work for 72 hours. I need to apply daily. It is a bit on the pricey side. I like the original sent, the juniper berry smells like gin to me. Overall I like it and have been using it for about 6 months now.
I can testify that being allergic to baking soda is a thing. Currently, I haven't been able to find an aluminum-free deodorant that comes anywhere close to my aluminium deodorants and I sweat like crazy, especially when I'm stressed...which is often. So I use my natural deodorants for quick errand runs and when I know I'll be in a relaxed environment. I only break out my aluminium deodorants when I have someone to impress or I know I'll be in a stressful enviornment. I've used the stick version of the lavender Crystal deoderant, but I prefer the liquid version despite the wet feeling because it seems to work better at keeping B.O. away.
Yeah I couldnt use the wet version it felt too moist for me and triggered more sweating
Aluminum is completely natural. It is one of the most abundant elements on earth, found everywhere, even in food. The potassium alum in Crystal is benign. Even aluminum chlorohydrate, which manufacturers use in deos and antis, is safe at the regulated amounts. They cannot deviate from them. Never feel bad about using aluminum products. Try using the classic Crystal stick/stone (lasts for years) for the quickie/relaxed mode and an aluminum anti-perspirant for the impress/stress mode.
OMG! I just found your channel while searching for reviews on Lume; I love your personality, and Definitely Jive with you,. The spirit has moved me to subscribe :) Looking forward to watching more videos
Lavalin (a.k.a. Hlavin) is the only deodorant that works for me and it works really well, even with heavy work and profuse sweating. One jar lasts me 9-10 months of daily use, so it's affordable even with a higher price point. I can't do anti-perspirant. Anti-perspirants makes me sweat so bad from my face people want to call an ambulance for me.
I appreciate the Lume review. You helped me save money and time!
BTW, minute 658, it's geranium (plant) not germanium (the semi-conductor, element, Ge). I hear lots of gardeners and tech enthusiasts switch the 2 words. I call it a tongue trap because they're only 1 letter different. (I hope that didn't come off as rude :/)
Oh, and I'm very VERY allergic to baking soda. My armpits get sore, inflamed, red and start peeling!
I used Schmidt's SENSITIVE Jasmine and tea. Also, HEB rolled out with their own natural d.o., it's roll on. I use it when I'm around the house. Those are the only two I found that I'm NOT allergic to.
I actually been using lume for about a month now & it works amazing for me & my body chemistry. I've try the Arm & Hammer deodorant & I've also tried some other natural deodorant they did NOT work good for me at all. The natural deodorants I try left me smelling extremely musty😕 & I did develop a slight rash I was constantly itching & scratching my underarms. Lume Works amazing for me I'm so happy that I found this product.🤗
You're lucky. Lume doesn't last 5 hrs for me and my armpits smell really bad. I carefully followed ALL their directions too. Big waste of $$. Big disappointment.
Lol your descriptions and honesty makes me chuckle. Thank you!
The Arm and hammer Fresh smells so good but for me wears off after 2-3 hours so I do have to reapply. I might try the men’s version
Schmidt’s is my go to natural deodorant and the baking soda ones work best for me. I use a natural power from Chagrin Valley Soap and Salve to freshen other parts of my body.
Schmidt's left stains on my clothes 😟
Mine stained too. Also, the actual deoderant started turning brown. For me, it was just kind of gross.
Chagrin Valley is amazing!
Schmidts worked but gave me a horrible rash , idk why
Ouch that price point tho! 😣. Thanks for the review
Bruhhhh, so rude
Thank you for the review!!! Wish I had seen it before ordering Lume. I was 2 secs from ordering the Arm & Hammer but decided to try Lume instead. I hate the price point but I decided to try it anyway just to see then I will try the Arm & Hammer and the other one you suggested. Thanks again.
I love your review of the product. I often get sucked in by commercials and such. Now I don’t deal with many body odor problems but I appreciate that you spoke about the consistency and storage of the product. I’m a crystal girl! It’s affordable and works for me.
Let those haters hate...they’ll be the ones smelling lavender seasoned onions scared to raise their arms or hands.
Ps: I’m not going 3 days without applying deodorant or showering. Period. I don’t care what the claim on the bottle is and not for the sake of a review.
Thank you for the review, been thinking about trying this. Tried Schmidt but left my under arms wet. The crystal irritated my skin to the point of cracking and peeling. Always find my way back to aluminum based deodorants 😩
I don't have hyperhidrosis so take this for what it's worth...
I use LONE deodorant (no baking soda or shea butter - both of which I'm sensitive to). If you've been using an aluminum based deodorant and try just switching to a natural based deodorant, *chances are very high it ain't gonna work for you* and you'll feel let down. Happened to me. Then I learned about armpit detox (basically detoxing your pits to get rid of all the junk in standard deodorants). Did it and now natural products work effectively for me. *This is just my experience* and may be worth a looksie for anyone let down by natural deodorants.
*Disclaimer: the detox is a stinky time and isn't for the faint of heart!🤣*
What method did you use to detox?
@@hallease
wellnessmama.com/25432/detox-your-armpits/
Yes! I agree! Detoxing definitely made me less stinky and natural deodorants were much more effective.
I'm in FL and was about to jump on Lume. Thank you for your honest review and for adding safe alternatives.
Well, I came here for the review as I was looking into lume. Lol yeah I loved watching you! Subbed!!!
I just bought the Clean Tangerine and I love it. The scent is amazing.
Hello Hallease! I really enjoyed your review. I agree, the 72 hours is just too long. Lume helps with body order, , for me. I also think the product will not destroy my clothes. I do not like aluminum products.
It's true about the rashes.. I switched to natural deodorants when I heard aluminum can contribute to cancer. And I just figured it makes sense to not put harsh chemicals on my skin for days at a time. . But then I did go back to regular deodorant because I would get a nasty painful rash on my pits. Some would be as bad as lasting a few days, itchy, dry and bright red. Almost like I was inducing eczema on myself. Then I would stop the natural stuff and it would be gone. So when Lume pointed out that it was the baking soda that causes those rashes I switched. I love Lume, I also don't have any hyper-sweating condition so it works great!
I honestly thought I was the only one who didn’t experience it lasting for 72 hours. It lasts 24 hours at most for me and I don’t even have any medical conditions involving sweat or odor. I’ve been looking for a review that pointed it out so thank you for being honest and not being one of those people who get paid to falsely review products. I like it and it doesn’t give me a rash but the scent I chose I thought I was gonna like because I love lavender and I always get lavender but I think the sage makes it smell weird. I might try a different scent next time and see if I like that more. So thank you now I don’t feel alone
It used to be that when you could smell funk, you hit the shower. Nowadays, just skip the soap and water and slather on the lume. It's good for you and helps you, too!
I literally got a Lume ad after this video XD
Me too. I Love the commercial so I watched it through to the end, I just don’t love RUclips spying.
I got it before the vid
How do you guys like it so far? I just ordered it
Love your style of reviews. You're so funny but also unbiased.
Thank you for this review! My mom has been using it but I wanted other opinions. BTW - I am totally one of those people allergic to baking soda on my skin. I had no idea that could happen until it happened to me! A great thing to note for anyone delving into natural deodorants because the rash is no fun.
I tried both the juniper and unscented. Unfortunately it did not work well for me. While it did keep the smell away, it made my pits wet all the time. The scents are not the best in my opinion and it’s extremely pricey. I will be trying your alternatives though, thanks!!
Girl yes in this Texas weather! Thank you for your review. I try to stay away from aluminum based products but a lot of the natural products I use do not work. In like an hour after using them I smell and I'm sweating so bad. I've been wanting to try Lume'. I just need it to work for a day. Even a couple of hours would be fine. lol Even the aluminum based products I have used don't even last that long. Worth giving it a shot.
Lume did not work for me. Didn't even last 5 hours and my armpits smelled really bad !! I carefully followed ALL the directions. Big waste of $$. Big disappointment
Thank you for your review, Hallease! I'd like to try the arm & hammer deodorant since you've mentioned that "clean" scent and maybe even the unscented one. I also have hyperhidrosis of the underarms, hands and feet. I find the creamier consistencies mimick the feeling of sweat so I immediately start sweating after applying but, the ones I use and know work for me are Thinksport (bergamot/ aloe and tea flowers) and Kogi Naturals (all scents). I do live in Canada so they may not be available internationally but I would check iHerb or Amazon if you'd like to check them out.
Have you tried Hibiclens wash (chlorhexidine gluconate)? The key is to not mix it with any soap/shampoo as it will disrupt the chlorhexidine. It's what is used pre-op in the hospital instead of iodine now. They sell a body wash at any drug store these days. I use it in the summer and it kills the armpit bacteria (which are the source of the offensive scent-producing molecules). Since the surface of skin is dead kerotinocytes, you don't have to worry about pro-bacteria... all of them are bad. This will knock them down for a day or two.
Thanks for the tip - I’m going to try this before ordering Lume.
For almost two years, I've tried numerous natural deodorants. The first one I tried had to much baking soda which led to darkening and peeling in my underarm area. I then created my own deodorant detox I found on RUclips until the peeling stopped. I tried Lume and experienced wetness. I tried Native and it worked for quite a while but then it stopped working. It tried Tom's. I worked for a few days and then it didn't. I then alternated between Native and the other natural deodorants still in my cupboard. I recently went back to Lume and it's working perfectly. In the summer, I tend to sweat more. I may have to use Lume with Native (I saw someone above suggested this above). We'll see.
Definitely think you should give them another a try. They have a lot more scents and their packaging is much better. Also the texture of their product is thicker and isn't going to drip out.
Thanks for this! I've been considering Lume for the mere fact that although I thought I had no allergies, I'm in fact allergic to all these natural deodorants with baking soda. 😰 I think I'll continue to wait to give this one a try and stick my apparent cancerous sticks of aluminum protection. 🤷🏾♀️
Ok, so, nearly everyone here seems to be whining about rashes with the alternatives to Lume. Have you ever tried something similar where you just rub it on everywhere it's needed? I drink lots of water all day and sweat a lot too, and what I use is a DIY blend of Lime, Lemon, Bergamot, Lavender essential oils in MCT oil. I use the MCT oil because I can initially spray it on and then run it in. And 99% of the time I only need to put it on once. Some days I put it on a second time like when I go out in the evening. I used to get the rashes and using deodorants that just wouldn't fix the odor problem. With the EOs solution I'm able to kill 2 birds in one stone. I'm new to Lume so I'm still going to have to test it out for myself, but it sounds promising.
Was intrigued by Lume commercial so looked for reviews. I LOVE Arm & Hammer Unscented (which is really a nice, substantial Citrus scent & frequently goes on sale) which I hope they keep making. Plus, er Lume, I'm not sure what's wrong with using baking soda in a deodorant product.
I don't have a lot of spare income, so after I bought a very small tube of charcoal toothpaste for $2.99, I realized I have to be a more discretionary buyer.
For private parts, I use cornstarch which seems to work well and is extremely inexpensive (yet a bit messy on floors unless you step in tub momentarily). It's also helpful to put on cornstarch before deodorant on armpits. (I rub in so there's no powder residue.)
I don't like perfume-y smells for deodorant, but more fruity-like smells. I found a Wild Sugar Secret which I'd sometimes use before my Arm & Hammer Essentials Unscented. But it soon became unavailable, so I moved on to Passion Tango & Summer Berry which sufficed.
Anyhow, I appreciated your Lume review so I could decide if I want to spend $13.99 for 2.2 oz of a product new to me.
Girl...Texas heat? You aren't kidding. They crystal type products didn't get me past noon when I was working with the public. I am glad you showed pictures of the stick, because I see it is not really a solid stick like one would think. Looks like the cream put in a fancy applicator.... You are a hoot! Thanks for your honest review.
Am I the only person who could use degree 2 times a week and be good? Cannot do that with natural deodorant tho, every day to AT MOST every other day. But now I have spirulina, it kills body odor from the inside out. I take the capsules. Before that it used to take me a yr or more to get rid of reg deodorant I used to get sick the smell of them and throw them out first, lol. So the key is to use spirulina every day to kill body odor.
Holla At The KI D How much do you take?
what brand do you use
I use my aunt's natural deodorant. She has a line of skin care/hair care and also some candles. (accentaroma . com)
If you're trying to switch to a natural deodorant, make sure you detox your armpits!!!!!!!!!! It will help A LOT! Bentonite clay and ACV is the best I've tried so far, just mix them together and put them on your pits and let it dry like you would a face mask. People say you have to do that for 5 days without using deodorant, but I just do it the first day and go on about my business and it seems to work. The problem I have is that I have to switch out deodorants every month. I switch between my natural deodorant and lemon juice because my pits seem to "get used" to it and then it doesn't hold me as long as it used to. I've definitely tried to use an aluminum based deodorant before but they don't hold me anymore like, AT ALL. I get so goddamn funky is such a short amount of time it's not even funny.
When I first switched over, not having the antiperspirant aspect of my deodorant threw me off a little, but now I've gotten used to it lol. As long as it's not a funky sweat I'm okay with it. Mostly because breast cancer runs in my family and I don't want to help it out anymore than I have to lol.
Yes yes yes, detox first is a must and yes the actual sweating part takes getting used too, even though it's totally natural, but now I rather sweat and know that I am not harming my body with the aluminum...
Also have to switch out every couple weeks, so I have a mix of 3-5 at all times
I love the Queen Helene tea tree deodorant. Been using it for years.
Thank you so much for this in-depth review! I too, saw the commercial for the Lume deodorant and was curious about the product. I have Hidradenitis Suppurativa under both of my arms, which is basically a chronic skin condition where I get these really painful cysts in my armpits, for the most part I can help keep them at bay, but it is at the cost of me using deodorant which is something I simply cannot do. I've tried just about every form of deodorant there is, and I'm extremely particular about what products I try out because I don't want to have to deal with the bumps that will inevitably come along afterwards. Your review was not only descriptive and comprehensive, it also covered things I didn't even think to look for. I thoroughly enjoyed your energy and just overall enjoyed YOU! You definitely have a new subscriber in me, and I look forward to watching more of your videos!
Your condition happened to me after scratching profusely for about 3 days. I was using Schmidt's even though it caused my arms to dry out and itch constantly. I ended up with swollen lymph nodes and a cyst, this had never happened to me and I was in the most pain I've ever been. What deodorant would you recommend??
I watched the video, I read most of the reviews - I think there are correct responses on both sides!! I am starting a small business, which is scary. Unless you have been there you have no idea how scary it is!! I think Hallease's review was very informative but one should be very careful what they say especially towards those new businesses investing hugely (time, money, energy, thinking about it night and day) to get a company off the ground!! I know, when you put yourself out there you should expect criticism as well as compliments!!! Honesty is important, it is how we grow but kind honesty works wayyyy better!!!
I will watch Hallease again, her verbiage was great and her demeanor I loved!!!
I want to try it because I'm allergic to aluminum deodorant
Great review! The way you say geranium made me giggle. Gonna try out that one!
I noticed the jasmine rose which I really like, but on warm days by the time I walk home I smell worse that without lume. But only my pits. I've noticed if i prime my pits with witch hazel i dont have a problem.
Also try rubbing lemons or the juice from real lemons under your arms. Let it dry before putting on clothing. It seems simple and unrealistic but it works great, guaranteed. I wouldn’t do this every single day, maybe 2-3 times a week. I have lume too and I alternate these two. I’m trying really hard to stop using antiperspirants for good (and yes it’s hard because I also have hyperhidrosis).
Great video great review. I was very disappointed by Lume. Complete let down. Love the crystal and the schmidt's
I love the honest review! I got Native deodorant as a sample last year and I've been loving it, especially since I have two kiddos who are hitting puberty and don't always smell the best. 😅
I love the Native- I use the sensitive line (sodium bicarbonate free)
The only antiperspirant/deodorant that keeps me mostly dry and not stinking i the pits is Right Guard 72 hr. I'm probably going to have to get back on Oxybutynin because unfortunately I also have hidradenitis and it's miserable when it flares up. Glad I found this video. I love your personality and vibe, so I'm looking forwars to watch your channel.
I gave lume a full and honest try as well. I have gotten TERRIBLE rashes from other natural deodorants and lume did not give me a rash at all. Oddly, it worked pretty well for the right armpit but not the left. I don't typically smell very much, but that one armpit smelled worse with lume than it would have without any deodorant at all. HOWEVER, I used it on my privates, as they can smell a bit after a workout. For that, it worked phenomenally. Also, my boyfriend's feet stink terribly, and lume is the only thing that has ever helped. I will continue using it for those areas, but not as an underarm deodorant.
I just switch to Essential Unscented deodorant. Since I stared using it, I have no under arm odor neither sweat. I really do like it.
i agree with your review! esp the consistency it's like a runny ceam of sorts and the unscented "scent" has a funky smell to me! but OMG this deodorant's amazing!
Awesome 👍 I just bought it I hope it works for me too I ordered the unscented.
I loved everything about this video and your bomb ass personality. Nice!!!
Regarding Arm & Hammer products... one has to be careful with baking soda. It's great stuff for some things (deodorizing a fridge, cleaning, making science a fair volcano), but I used A&H toothpaste and my Dentist told me baking soda is so abrasive it was actually "sanding off" my tooth enamel. Ended that, went with standard cheap toothpaste, no cavities since. So yeah, baking soda must be used with care. I can believe some folks would be allergic to it... but to be fair there's a percentage of the population that's allergic to almost anything (wheat, peanuts and eggs for example). The "rash" issue might be person-specific, depending on allergies.
I actually use Native and Lume (apply both at the same time ) and what one wont do the other seems to and it works. It is frustrating with how you waste more with lume so I am going to try mixing arm n hammer with Native and and see how that works out
Thanks beautiful ✨🌙 I am looking into reviews of this! The commercial whistled at me, your video made me come closer to see the quality of it. Debating on switching my deodorant.
LOVE LOVE LOVE Your review. The coverage of the product was Great......all points.......Thank you! Did I tell ya I loved the review. Hugs and Prayers
