Whole Body Deodorant - Invisible Cream Tube - 72 Hour Odor Control - Aluminum Free, Baking Soda Free, Skin Safe - 3.0 ounce (Toasted Coconut)

I first purchased this in "soft powder". I got sick of the scent long before finishing it. Then I ordered the trial pack of 5. (Unscented was awful...I was so glad I hadn't ordered a full size.) My two favorites in the trial pack were Toasted Coconut and Clean Tangerine. After using them in a sensitive area of my body, I decided to order Clean Tangerine because Coconut burned a bit. I loved the Tangerine, but after a couple months decided to order Coconut so I could alternate month-to-month. The coconut still burns a bit but it doesn't last, and is bearable. Both work very well, and solved a long standing problem for me. I do like the scent of both, but it's nice to alternate so I don't get tired of it. I'm so glad I tried this product. Worth the cost; I only use a pea-size amount each time.

The product is excellent. It prevents perspiration and odor for more than a day (I've not tried for longer). It does not irritate the skin. It does not feel sticky. The scented varieties are far better than the unscented variety. The unscented has a disgusting scent which is not perceived by all users, but it is by me. I think the manufacturer should study this further.

First of all, I want to bring up a point several others made in their reviews- DON'T BE ALARMED BY THE ODD SMELL of the product before you put it on- it definitely has a weird "funk" to it besides the named scent, but it dissipates almost instantly once you put it on to a very light, clean, almost imperceptible scent. More importantly, hours and hours and hours of sweating later (remember, this is NOT an antipersperant) you will smell ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. As others have also stated, boob sweat is real, and has a funk all its own- a little swipe of this under the boobs after your shower and you will never smell it again. Period. Ditto for any and all other areas of the body. After seeing the ads, I gathered it was safe for all the unmentionable bits, but other reviewers mentioned using it on their feet; for some reason, I never thought of that before reading about it! I'm on my feet and walking for the better part of my day, and winter and summer, my feet sweat and smell ungodly, especially if my shoes had gotten wet. Worse than I imagine any teenage boy's feet or sneakers could smell. I've used this spray and that powder. I've had shoes that are machine washable that I've run through twice in a row to kill the smell, to no avail... Sometimes if my feet got wet and I couldn't dry them right away, between the shoes and my feet, the smell was so bad I could smell them while I was standing upright. Don't know if anyone else ever noticed, I'm fortunate? enough that they never said anything if they did, but the smell was enough to offend ME! I tried a little of this on my clean, dry feet before getting dressed, and oh my goodness, I am not kidding you, NO ODOR AT ALL, even after one of the longest days that would have left them ghastly without the deodorant. Killing the boob sweat smell was one thing, but this was AMAZING. I tried the Clean Tangerine scent, lotion style- It does indeed have a strange, organic, funky smell to it besides the actual tangerine scent if you smell it in or freshly out of the tube, but it really does completely disappear within seconds of application. That's another great thing about this deodorant- it doesn't have an overly flowery or perfumey scent to compete with any other scent you may wear, and is suitable for women or men. It really doesn't have much of its own scent at all once dry, and it dries quickly. Best of all, you don't have a mix of perfumey smell trying (and failing) to mask real odor, a ghastly combo! This works to neutralize the bacteria that causes the odor in the first place. I highly recommend this deodorant, will try the other scents and maybe the stick type at some point, but that brings up another point- value for the money. You may think it's pricey for a deodorant, but a little dab'll do ya, and one tube will last a while. This was only available on Amazon as a 2-tube purchase, so I won't need to order more for quite a while! You really do only need a pea-sized amount in each area of concern for complete all-day odor ELIMINATION, (not "masking"), so that makes it a great value for the money. Worth every penny. Very impressed, will recommend to everyone besides my fellow Amazon shoppers too.

Summary: Positives 1. It is better for your skin than cheaper alternatives. 2. It is not expensive to use because a small amount lasts. 3. It can be effective sometimes for 2 days and sometimes for a lot more. Update: 4. Applyed it for a jock itch, now it is gone, wow. So much healthier than the medications which actually hurt your skin. Negatives 1. Applying it is a little bit involved, and can take a few minutes. 2. One needs a special solution to wash the bad smell off of fingers. 3. Though the bad smell can be managed, it is still awful to experience such bad smell while applying it. Details: I bought a tube of no scent lume. Mostly because the only scent acceptable to wear for a man: silver spruce, was out at that time. I did read reviews of the horrific smell, but wanted to try it anyway. When I did try it, it was horrific. The smell was unbearable to me. When I would apply it with my fingers, it was getting on my fingers, and my fingers smelled horrible, and the smell would not wash out with water or soap, so I stopped using it. Much later, unhappy with other deodorants, I thought to persevere, and to try it again. I found out that after applying it, you want to keep from putting the shirt on for a few minutes. This is to prevent it from soaking into your shirt. After a few minutes, several things happened: it would 1. Stop smelling horridly under my arms( not much smell at all ), 2. Dry out, so I could put my shirt on. I also found out that the horrid smell on my fingers could be washed away with a soap and a light vinegar and water solution. It all sounds pretty involved, so why is my rating 4 stars, which is a positive rating. Well, 1: alternatives are either bad for your skin or expansive. 2: on the subject of expansiveness, this product is also quite expensive. But I use the tiniest amount of it, and it does it's job well, so it actually lasts a while. 3: how well does it actually work? I found out that in the summer, when I tend to sweat more, it is effective for maybe a day and a half, possibly 2 days. But in the winter, when I don't sweat too much, it can last a week or more. I had a minor medical procedure, and could not shower for a week, and it was still working. I was rather surprised. But as soon as I washed, my BO was back as strong as ever, sorry for that imagery. So I know it was lume keeping it down. So to recount: Positives 1. It is better for your skin than cheaper alternatives. 2. It is not expensive to use. 3. It can be effective sometimes for 2 days and sometimes for a lot more. Negatives 1. Applying it is a little bit involved, and can take a few minutes. 2. One needs a special solution to wash bad smell off of fingers 3. Though the bad smell can be managed, it is still awful to experience such bad smell while applying it.

THIS STUFF WORKS WONDERS!!!! I’m a breastfeeding mom and I needed something for my armpits, between the thighs and in my breast area because between my hormones, sweat and milk it doesn’t stay too fresh. I felt like post partum smell was getting the best of me despite my two showers a day. First day using this product, I decided to test it out by going to the gym. I smelled like absolutely nothing by the end of my workout. I would have had to go home because this product works so well I got a pedicure after and didn’t feel self conscious at all because I smelled so fresh. Buy it! Just trust me, it’s a game changer

Afraid of the STINK many are complaining about? Okay...so I tried every single one of Lume's scents and hands down the BEST scent is the one I thought I would like the least, it's the Toasted Coconut. The other scents DO have a strange scent to them upon first application, but honestly ALL of them work, they really do. Here's the secret to using this product, RESIST the temptation to smell the cream straight out of the bottle. Just don't do it. Ewwww! You'll hate it! Instead, just ignore what your nose is telling you and put the stuff on! No! Don't smell your pits immediately! I told you not to! LOL! (I am serious don't do it!) Give it a try and trust the stuff will work and put your clothes on and get dressed. Later when you remove your clothing before bed that's the time to do your scent investigation. Or for the more adventurous among us, have someone else do the scent investigation for you. Sniff those pits or "other" places you chose to slather this stuff all over and I swear these places won't smell at all or they will have a soft lavender, coconut, or whatever scent you chose...even the non-scented one that smells downright putrefying right out of the bottle will not smell at all on your skin after wearing it awhile...instead you'll just be scent-free and smell-free. Give the underarms of your t-shirt a sniff after wearing it all day and you'll only smell lovely lavender, coconut, etc... In fact, this stuff works so well that I asked my husband to use it--on some of his other parts, and WOW holy guacamole am I a believer! ;) After THAT experience he is definitely motivated to use this stuff daily! (You just gotta reward good behavior!) LOL! Finally, to recap, DO NOT try to smell what you're looking for in a scent directly from the bottle or even right after you apply it... it needs time...seasoning for an hour or so, and then you'll be pleased as punch! Delay your need for instant fragrance gratification, modify your expectations for what scents you expect to come from the bottle and instead focus on the outcome (maybe focus on your WHY)...body odor will not occur if you use this after showering. We shower daily so I cannot comment on the 72hr nature of this body deodorant. Oh, and as far as scent choices go, I did try all of the scents and I like the way the toasted coconut mellows out to LATER, lavender mellows out nicely too so it's my second choice and for times that I don't want any scent as no scent is nice too, the unscented version is perfect (but only after time has passed on your skin...definitely a horrible smell after just applying it, but only if you stick your nose up to it. Ignore the scent at first, tell yourself it's going to be ok and let it ride... let it sit and do it's thing and it will disappear into a gorgeous UNSCENTED version. Just don't pay attention to how awful the unscented one is at first, buuuuut I promise you if you give it a few hours you won't be disappointed! I hope this helps you sift through your dilemma when you read ALL the reviews talking about the "stink"... patience grasshopper!

I've been using all natural deodorants for years now. Lume is hands-down the best one I've found. It doesn't stain my shirts, it's easy to apply, and it lasts pretty well (FYI, I only use it on my arm pits). My two cents on 3 things: 1) Smell. I started with the sampler pack. My favorite scent is the Toasted Coconut. After that, I prefer the Unscented. The Coconut starts out STRONG. I put it on one morning and my dad commented right after about how I was definitely prepared to hang out on the lake since I already put sunscreen on. After a while, I got sick of smelling like coconut so I purchased the Unscented. I definitely prefer Unscented on most days. However, if I'm aware I'm going to be extra smelly that day, I'll use the Coconut to help mask the BO instead. As far as the stuff smelling bad out of the bottle . . . I honestly don't think either of the scents smell bad right out of the bottle. Coconut is SUPER strong out of the bottle. Unscented has a smell, but it's not a bad one or a good one. It's very neutral. I did notice a slight undertone scent that I wasn't fond of when I was wearing the Coconut every day. That was part of the reason I switched to Unscented. Sometimes, our bodies react oddly to things. I haven't noticed the same weird smell since I began switching back and forth between Unscented and Coconut. 2) Longevity. I haven't figured this out yet. Some days, it barely lasts one day. Other times, I can go a whole second day and not get smelly. I think there are a few factors at play here: how much you're applying, letting it dry before putting clothes on, and how much sweating you're going to do that day. I think one of the mistakes I've made in the past is not letting the stuff dry on me before I put my shirt on. I would hope that it goes without saying, but if you're going to be sweating a ton (nerves, workouts, yard work), don't expect a miracle. You can sweat through this stuff if you sweat enough. It's just how natural deodorants work. This is definitely the best stuff I've run into so far though. Also, if you're eating a lot of onion or garlic, be prepared to be a little extra smelly. You might need a Coconut scent instead of an Unscented just for a little extra help. 3) The condition of the application area I only use this stuff as on my arm pits, so that's all i can offer advice on. One thing I learned over the years using natural deodorants is that the start of your underarms makes a HUGE difference when it comes to BO. The best result is when you're clean shaven and freshly washed. Here are those steps in more detail: Step 1: shave your arm pits. The hair lends itself to capturing the bacteria that leads to BO. If your pits aren't hairy - persistent BO isn't as much of an issue. I shave at least twice a week. If the hairs get too long, I tend to be smellier. Step 2: Wash your arm pits before applying. With most natural deodorants, the goal is to create a sort of "seal" on your skin so the bacteria under your arm doesn't react with your sweat and you start to smell. If you apply it on top of dirty skin (skin that already has the odor causing bacteria there) then you're not creating a seal against BO - you're just . . . doing nothing really. You're still going to smell. Lume might be a good enough product to not need this step, but after years of washing my pits before applying deodorants, I'm not willing to give up this step. Every thing helps. Final thoughts: Try the sample sizes. Clean your under arms. Wash your clothes (turns out clothes I wore before I began Lume had some latent bacteria on them that started smelling when I began sweating while wearing Lume. I'm trying to remember to wash those sweaters and dresses I only wear once or twice a year).

Freaking love this stuff. My whole family does! I hate when my skin rolls off after a shower and I’m towel drying. When I use the Lume acidifying body wash, I don’t see that happening. I feel CLEAN. I know it’s safe to use around my lady parts because I have been, and zero irritation. When I was young I tried the other stuff that we are taught not to use, and I was very sensitive and it was not good, every time. So to find this to help with smells, 100% works, I feel clean and confident. Also, I will say, I’ve bought this both from the Lime website and amazon serval different times over the last three years. This last bottle I bought from here, it soap does smell like maybe it’s been sitting in the bottle too long, does that make sense? Idk it has a weird container scent. It doesn’t normally. Don’t does make me reconsider buying this particular item directly from Lume next time, the price is about the same anyways. I just prefer the convenience of getting multiple things from amazon at once. Anyways, love it!
