Deodorant Cream Stick - 2.2 oz, 2 pk (Lavender Sage) | Odor Protection Aluminum Free Baking Soda Paraben Hypoallergenic Feet Cruelty deodorant lotion

I really wasn’t expecting much when I ordered this. Since having a baby, I’ve been dealing with strong postpartum body and underarm odor, and I’ve tried several deodorants without much success. I was hesitant to use this at first because of the unusual scent, but I’m so glad I gave it a chance. The smell fades within a few minutes after application, and it works incredibly well. I’m happy to have finally found something that’s effective!

My favorite deodorant that I’ve been using it for years!! It did take a few weeks to get rid of the smelly pits from using chemical brands for years but now I don’t ever smell and I have pretty stinky pits sometimes. I put it on at night and even when I shower in the morning and don’t put it on again, it doesn’t smell still. I do still get super sweaty but this doesn’t discolor my shirts or leave any residue, it literally just rinses with water. I have had a difficult time finding it sometimes and have noticed on my husband it smells cheesy but on me it doesn’t smell like that at all. So I guess it either works for you or it doesn’t. I’d say this is best if you don’t care if you sweat and just worry about not having any armpit stink.

I decided to switch to natural deodorant to avoid aluminum and have spent a considerable amount of time and money trying different types and brands. I also have a sensitivity to smells and, as it turns out, baking soda. Here is what I have discovered: Lume (Unscented). By far the best, it absolutely keeps me stink-free and does not leave stains on my shirt. It also seems to keep me dry even though it’s not technically an antiperspirant. The skin in my pits is smooth, there is no body odor to be found, and I’ve stopped ruining my shirts. My husband uses it, too, after he developed a rash from his Gillette brand deodorant. For awhile he was only using Lume on one pit, and the pit without almost killed me. I use the stick form and it goes on like a gel but rubs in quickly. There are other forms that can be used on any part of your body. The only negatives are the price (about $14 although I think the stick will last a very long time because you don’t have to use much), that it has to be purchased online, and there aren’t any scents I can tolerate. I can’t do earthy or flowery smells and hope Lume will start making a vanilla or citrus/fruity scent in the future. The unscented smells a little medicine-y, but similar to unscented lotion, and only if I intentionally sniff it. I also wish they made a deodorant shampoo because I swear my hair stinks after the gym and would like to prevent that, as I don’t have time to wash and style my hair after working out. I hope Lume stays in business because this is my forever deodorant. When my son hits full-blown puberty, I’ll switch him to this deodorant, and have him use it on his feet, too. I'm not sure how this is considered a “natural” deodorant since I can't pronounce many of the ingredients, but it doesn’t contain the ingredients that cause allergic reactions or the toxic aluminum that I'm trying to avoid. Schmidt’s (Bergamot Lime). The best scent ever, which is why I let my pre-teen use it still. I want to keep a supply of this around just to inhale it. This is also one of the cheapest options ($5) and available at box stores. You have to warm the deodorant in your pits to apply it. However, this gave me a huge rash and was only minimally effective. Nubian Heritage (Coconut Papaya). I used this deodorant and Schmidt’s the longest before I found Lume. The scent is mellow and sweet, and the deodorant goes on clear and smooth. It worked decently well, but not reliably. I still smelled bad by the end of the day and after many months of use, my pits were starting to get inflamed. I originally bought this for around $5-8 at Walmart and again on Amazon. Native (Coconut Vanilla). The scent is light and sweet, and the deodorant goes on smoothly, but the rash was unbearable. It is also a creamy deodorant and left residue in my shirts. One day when using Native I was picking my son up from school and raised my arm and the smell almost killed me. This is not effective and certainly not worth a red, itchy, angry rash that caused my armpit skin to fall off in chunks and feel like leather. I am amazed that Native is now available at box stores and that they get $12 for the stuff. It is murder on my pits. Stinkbug Naturals (Vanilla Mint). This was another one that was relatively cheap (like $8) from Walmart. It smelled like mint chocolate chip ice cream which clashed with my lemon body lotion. I can’t say how well it worked because it went on like a greasy paste that I had to scrub off with a gallon of soap and a washcloth, and I decided that was not worth it. I was like melting a bacon-grease candle in my pits. Arm & Hammer Essentials (Unscented). This is the cheapest of them all (I think I paid $2.50) and available at box stores. It goes on clear and while unscented, it still has an almost citrusy, soapy smell. It contains baking soda so I expected a rash, though I can’t say this caused one. However, it was only somewhat effective. Jason (Calming Lavender). This is another inexpensive option (about $5-7) available at box stores. Lavender is one of the few flowery scents I can tolerate, but I felt like this scent made me smell a little too much like new age hippie. It goes on clear and doesn’t stain clothing but is only slightly more effective than using nothing. Tom’s (Fresh Apricot). I bought this at the store for about $5 to use after showering at the gym basically in place of perfume because I’m too cheap to buy more Lume for on-the-go (that will soon change.) It goes on clear and the scent is pleasing but with a light, soapy after-smell. Like the Jason brand, this deodorant does almost nothing. This deodorant also caused my pits to glow pink-red after each use. It doesn’t contain baking soda, but it’s possible that I react to corn starch the same way. I think anything used as a desiccant will overly dry out and irritate my skin. Primal Pit Paste (Orange Cream). I was so excited to try this because orange cream! However, the scent is barely perceptible. It basically smells like wax. This is available online for about $10. I used the tube version and the deodorant was extremely thick. Like a chunky grease that you have to hold in your pits for an hour to soften and then it is a bit crumbly and takes some of the skin off when you rub it on. And the rash...evil, evil rash.

I really like how this deodorant works for my boyfriend and me. The only thing is, the vanilla scent isn't for me. The scent is very fake, almost like a bad vanilla candle. I am going to try the deodorant again, but I will not be getting the vanilla.

Lume stick deodorant is absolutely amazing, and I’m honestly shocked more people don’t know about it. This stuff truly works. It completely kills odor and keeps me feeling clean and fresh all day long without needing constant reapplying. One of my favorite things is the 72-hour odor control, which makes it an absolute game changer for camping, traveling, long workdays, or anytime you’re constantly on the go. It gives real peace of mind knowing it actually lasts and performs exactly as advertised. I also pair it with Lume’s acidified soap, and together they work incredibly well. Since using both, I’ve noticed a huge difference in overall freshness and confidence throughout the day. The stick goes on smoothly, lasts a long time, and works better than traditional deodorants I’ve tried. Highly recommend to anyone looking for something that genuinely delivers on odor control!

Well, I'm amazed... This stuff actually works. In the hot summer months, my perspiration had developed an acrid odor that other deodorants couldn't deal with. Lume was effective from the first time I used it. Yeah, it's kinda expensive, and I had to get used to the cream formulation, and the unscented version has a bit of an odd odor... But it works. I'm a convert and will continue to buy it.

3 stars. The odor protection? Outstanding. The fragrance? A crime against citrus. This deodorant survived sweat, errands, workouts, and the kind of summer heat that makes you question every life decision involving the outdoors. Unfortunately, the Clean Tangerine scent and I were not meant to be. I’ll absolutely buy it again because the performance is top-tier. My armpits stayed fresh all day. Next time, though, we’re choosing a different fragrance and pretending this one never happened.

I ordered this after a friend recommended it to me and never going back to traditional deodorants. Few things to note this is a deodorant not an antiperspirant so if you want the combination of sweat blocking as well as deodorizing this is not the product for you. I personally don’t care so much about the sweat blocking but how I smell throughout the day so while it took a little bit to get used to feeling sweat again I’m glad I made the change. I’m currently pregnant so BO issues due to hormones have been real, with this guy no problem especially if applied in high friction/sweat areas ( under breast, armpits and inner thighs) . As far as the smell, I bought this two pack in lavender sage, as well as their mini tube sample pack so I could decide on a scent. Initially there is a slight off smell ( not super uncommon for more natural products) in conjunction with the added scent but it only lasts as the cream is absorbed and dries ,after that it’s just the scent that they add that is left. The coconut reminds me of a fall candle super warm scent, probably not for every day for most people unless you enjoy fall candles :). I personally thought it smelled great. Peony rose was my favorite, think rose water smell with a hint of more florals from the peony. Lavender sage is definitely earthy and smells like real lavender and real sage, not my favorite but ironically my go to since it’s in the regular applicator form. The tangerine one was my least favorite reminded me of orange candy’s. Surface area application I will note is definitely a thing. When I apply it I am diligent in completely covering the entire area especially in the underarms, if you don’t spread it past the armpit crease lines good chance you will end the day switch some slight to moderate BO. For this I gave them 4 stars. Lastly to address some of the many review comments around feel, texture , and longevity. This is literally a cream so if you are used to bars keep in mind that there will be an adjustment period as the feel is definitely different. And no 72 hours is not a real thing if you are someone who struggles with BO. I think pretty much every deodorant has some wild claims about how long it lasts , have never found these to be true. I haven’t had any issues with the applicator not working or clogging as some mentioned so it makes me wondered where those were stored. Overall great find!

Es muy bueno, su aroma es rico, pero al tiempo si no le retoco antes de que se cumplan las 72hrs me puede dar mal olor no siempre pero si me a pasado, el empaque dice que dura 72 hrs. pero si es muy buenoo es de lo poco que si me a funcionado, al principio incluso si me duraba mucho mas tiempo que ahora. llego como 3 meses usandolo, Gracias!

Nice scent and works better than conventional deodorant.. a bit over priced though

Amazing! Avoids smell rather than masking it. While the cream has a slight scent this dissipates once applied and for me after lots of searching this is the only one that truly works. My personal smell changed a couple of years ago and i found it quite distressing because i have a really good sense of smell and would be very conscious of it, Im super active plus always on the go and this deodorant endures my hectic life style and dont need to have an extra wash before going to bed as i had resorted to. The formulation is so natural and while everybody will react to different substances in a different way this is as clean and honest as it can get. Many thanks for persevering with developing this product. Please bring it to Europe and UK It will create a landslide in the market no doubt!

Me gustó aunque no dura 72 horas pero 24 horas si, entreno y sudo mucho y no huelo con este desodorante. He usado varios “dermatológicos” y no me han funcionado. Se siente que es más natural que el de aerosol de marcas comerciales.

I am blown away ..lume is everything it says it is. I am impressed
