Overall, I can’t think of any reason not to try Lume, as long as you don’t need an antiperspirant. It will be interesting to see if there’s a reduction in fading now that I’ve switched to Lume. I have many shirts that are faded at the armpits, likely from my deodorant. There’s also an additional potential benefit that I can’t verify yet. It’s easy to wash off, and there’s no residue.The Prosīecause I’ve already covered the pros in my overview, I’ll just list them here as an overview. With all of the benefits, though, I can deal with these detriments. It’s a deodorant, it won’t make you sweat any less, it just keeps you from smelling. And, if you need an antiperspirant, then Lume probably isn’t for you. But, it lasts me 3-4 months, depending on just how much I apply. Lume is anywhere from nearly double to nearly triple the price of other deodorants. The lesser cons: it’s expensive, and it’s not an antiperspirant. I miss having a stick I can just apply on its own. Lume has one big con in my eyes, and a couple smaller ones. BO has been nearly non-existent, and it’s been so liberating The Cons Recently, I’ve had several warm and hot days (80+☏). I made it through the day with virtually no BO. I made it through an entire stick and bought a second before I got a really hot (90☏) day. I wanted to immediately jump on here and give you a review, but as i thought about it, I knew i needed to give it a proper test through some hot days. And, I found a great side benefit: my clothes weren’t covered in deodorant anymore. It took some experimenting, but I finally had an odor free day. So, I adjusted my application method and tried different amounts. There was also a note about making sure to apply Lume up to an inch beyond the hair growth areas to ensure full odor control. In it, they explained that it can take some time to get rid of all the residue from aluminum deodorants, and, that once it was gone, you have to experiment with how much Lume you actually need to apply. But about a week after I started using it, I got an email from Lume. I still smelled, just like I had with the previous deodorants. For reference, I bought the Lavender Sage Stick deodorant. The ad mentioned a few things I disliked about drugstore and natural deodorants. However, after seeing the ad a good 8-9 times, I became curious, mostly because of how silly it looked. Originally, I didn’t bother to watch the video, assuming it would be more of the same. In January this year, I started seeing Lume ads on Instagram, namely this ad (watch from 0:14 – 0:56) nearly every day. They may be annoying, but at least they did their job. So I went back to the drugstore deodorants. I tried three different ones, which, while much easier to wash off, offered little to no odor protection. To be honest, I didn’t really believe all of the claims, but I was curious about the natural deodorants. That was roughly when I started hearing about how bad regular deodorants are. Some years ago, I started seeing ads for “natural” deodorants. I could scrub until my pits were red and sore and still feel residue. I was also very annoyed by how difficult those traditional deodorants were to remove. Not really bad, like not likely to offend anyone, but I could smell it, and it bothered me. If I would sweat even a little, I would smell. In the past, I have tended towards smelly. I switched between them regularly trying to find one that would completely eliminate body odor. Growing up, drugstore deodorants were all I had available to me. I acknowledge this is a long post, so, if you don’t care about backstory and just want to jump down to the overview, feel free to do so. I felt it necessary to provide that information to adequately discuss the changes with and benefits of, Lume. Fair warning, there is, within this review, what some people would consider TMI relating to sweatiness and BO.
