Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 59 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Many customers found the products ineffective, noting that they did not control odor as advertised and often failed to last for the promised duration, sometimes only hours. People frequently reported issues with product quality, including unpleasant scents, chemical smells, and products that caused rashes, irritation, or burning sensations. The high price point was a common concern, with many feeling that the products were overpriced given their poor performance and the need to reapply frequently. Several users also experienced problems with the product packaging, such as spray nozzles breaking, leaking, or becoming clogged, rendering the product unusable. Conversely, a small portion of people felt satisfied with the customer service, describing it as top-notch, pleasant, and helpful. Some reviewers also found certain products, particularly the cream or solid deodorants, to be effective for odor control and appreciated the aluminum-free formulation, with a few even noting smoother skin after use.

Don’t buy the solid

Don’t buy the solid, it smells like mildew. I bought three different scents in a bundle and they went bad before I could even use them. The cream stick is fine. Also, it doesn’t last for 72 hours. It’s effective for maybe 24 hours. I’ve been using this product since it came out. They told me the shelf life is 1 year open and 2 years unopened. Obviously, this isn’t true. I bought the bundle 5 months ago and they are all bad. Company won’t send me replacements because it’s out of their 30 day warranty. I’m very disappointed in them. I’ve been a loyal customer for many years. Another thing to note is that the body wipes burn your private parts, they’re ok for arm pits. They offered me a 15% off coupon but, I won’t be supporting them anymore. They tried to tell me it was about “my scent preference “ I don’t think anyone wants to smell like a dirty dish rag. They’ve lost me as a customer.

To all those saying it smells

To all those saying it smells. What do you expect when they have castor oil in the product? There are MANY other ingredients, look it up. People be careful and check what is in a product before using it. A Dr I had when as a teenager told me to NEVER use talc powder "down below", why would you apply other products there also? I'm not going to be surprised if this product (and Mando) is recalled sooner than later.
A good shower with unscented body wash should be sufficient. If someone has body odor not responding see a dermatologist to check a gland issue?

Also, no,we don't make people feel bad about underarm smell. They even make you not use any deodorant for a mammogram to be accurately read. That is false advertising.

This stuff has changed my life

This stuff has changed my life. Because im older and stuff had began to sag, i wpuld sweat in thr crack between my legs and my privates. It would smell awful and irritate my skin and hurt. Now i use less than half a tsp of the cream after a shower and it no longer does that. Thank you so.mucg for creating this product...as long as it is on the market i wont be without it. By tte way a lot of people seem.offput by its odour but i use "baby soft" and while its not thecexact same as bavy powder it smells fine. Its not perfume but compared to the smell of sweat its far less offensive. I got some wipes in a different scent and they dont smell as good.

only for the smelly

This is only for smell. I am not a smelly person, I was using this mostly for it being natural and not having aluminum. But there is NO anti perspirent. So if you're SWEATY and stinky, this is NOT for you.

I ordered as a gift

I ordered as a gift. A sample set. TG I got it before adding in with my friend's package. It was a travel gift. New pajamas, and this disgusting smelling product. I ordered a variety for her. They all have this foul smell that overwhelms the actual fragrance. It went in the garbage do to embarrassment. I cannot imagine using that on a vacation and it be the only deodorant I packed. I see it is now Mando. Maybe men cannot smell the foul undertone of vomit. I guess there is no grey area with this product. You can smell that foul undertone or NOT.

Wow…just wow!

Wow. Just wow. I begin using Lumme almost 3 months ago, and I will never leave home without it! I have been going through menopause and have been suffering with horrible day and night sweats. I wake up so many times a night completely drenched in sweat. I am a schoolteacher and was constantly worried about embarrassing body odor when I would break out in a sweat during class. Now that I have discovered Lume, things are better. I’m still suffering from day and night sweats, but there is no embarrassing body odor to go along with them. Thank you so much for such an amazing product. I’m not worried about odor anymore. You have earned a customer for life. This product truly delivers on all of its claims!

Bad bad and bad

I just got this and was excited to use it but this stuff really burns. It feels like alcohol on a open sore. I requested a return label and they want me to print out a label like I have a printer. This crap is too expensive to be working like this, waisted my money now i have to give it away😡

Didn’t work as advertised

I bought a small lume stick to try it. The price was more than a regular deodorant stick by far. And it didn’t work as advertised. Plus when trying to shave my pits after use it leaves a sticky residue that makes shaving difficult. I’ve never experienced that with any other product. I threw the barely used product in the garbage. I will stick with my regular product.

Awful smell

I bought this deodorant for my husband thinking it would help. I bought the whole body cream, of course I did not smell in store. It was unscented so I had no reason to. This thing smelled like straight fish bait, the worst thing I've ever smelled. Very expensive deodorant to just toss, price definitely needs to be lower. Anyway got different smell and he's still testing it out. So far not as happy as we should be, does not work for gym workouts. Works better then other things so we'll just have to see. Still disappointed.

I’ve finally tried LUME after all the…

I’ve finally tried LUME after all the hype on the internet about it… I’ve been using it for ONE WEEK so far… Yesterday 4/3/24 was the FIRST day I did not apply any… I woke up this morning & thought somebody was eating a HOAGIE in my house… little did I know, it was MY UNDERARM & the small of my underarm was SO STRONG that when I lifted my arm to scratch my head, the smell of PURE RAW ONION smacked me right in the face! I have NEVER in my 29 years of life smelled that BADLY under my armpit! I’m mortified to say the least. If that’s the way you smell after not using LUME for one day AFTER already using it for one week straight.. clearly there’s a chemical in it that doesn’t sit right with the body. I cannot believe I smelled that way this morning after going one single day without using the product! I have went a day before without using my regular ass SUAVE deodorant, and I have NEVER SMELLED THAT HORRIBLE THE NEXT DAY. 15 dollars for an already nasty smelling deodorant is ridiculous! And then for it to have your body smelling like the back of an Indian corner store, is just crazy. It’s not worth the bread people… stick to your simple POWDER SUAVE

Lume made me stink so bad I 🤢

Lume made me stink so bad I 🤢. I told my dr that my body odor had become awful thinking it was related to health issues. I was perplexed. It took me a while to realize it was the Lume that was the culprit. The product was worse than not wearing any deodorant times ten.
I am back to my old reliable brand and the bad odor is gone.

I went to Walmart and purchased two small lume deodorants. I was exciting to try a new deodorant and I through this one will work. Unfortunately, it did not. It’s seems my stresses that make me sweat and funky over powered the deodorant and I had a worst smell after using it. It did not work for me. Please use me in a clinical trial to see why I still have under arm funk.

This product has a bad smell at first…

This product has a bad smell at first when applying it to my body but then later as my body heated up, I actually didn’t have an odor. That’s the only positive thing I can say about this. I placed two separate orders, the first was for me with no complaints. The second order, I purchased for my wife, son and I for Christmas. My wife and I soon after using the new products developed a rash that resulted in a burning sensation wherever we were instructed to apply the cream and deodorant. We stopped using it immediately. After recently reading all the bad reviews on it, we decided to toss every bit of it in the trash. We were down a lot of money. I would not waste my time on Lume. Buyers beware!

Love this product in Clean Tangerine

i dont know what the process was for deciding on the scents because all of them are strangley off putting. the clean tangerine is best and i think it works great! No smells at all after using and i tell people about how awesome it is all the time. some people who stink should really try this!
