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.

Yuk!

After two weeks, this product ceased to be effective. I wish I had read the reviews before I fell for their unconventional television advertising campaign. It caused me to have an underarm odor that was sickening to me and I had to go back to my old standby deodorant that I had used for years. I just tried to email the company but the program wouldn't accept my email. I'm sure the system is overloaded with complaints!

Thanks for sharing your reviews

After reading these reviews I will not purchase this item.
The Dr's description of where to use this product are not words that sound like words any professional physician would use.....stink, butt, pits, butt crack, under boobs. C'mon

No longer works

I have been using Lume for approximately a year. Prior to Lume changing the scents to smell better, the deodorant worked well. I loved if I was camping and couldn't shower for a few days because it kept my pits fresh. Since Lume changed the formula I don't even get 24 hours of protection! I shower, put the deodorant on and by the time I finish working out I can smell my pits. It's not at all effective for me anymore. I am so dissatisfied with its performance. I used to love it, but sadly no more.

Everyone SHOULD expect different results.

This was an experiment with extra Christmas loot. Like most experiences with 'personal care products' individual's results WILL vary. It is 'best to test' and know yourself. I have not had some of the trials that others had. No rashes, irritations, not a horrid after-smell, or nauseated after opening the cap issue. I have tried the tube and the body stick, And for me I am used to stick, so naturally that is my preference. My fav scent is peony, but I like florals. In the fruit scents I tend to like orang-y scents, but not so much this tangerine. It contains a bitter note that is not all sunshine and roses on me! I liked the idea of the trial having a free product, but sad that it was the coconut soap bar. It is nice, and I did try it out after much soul searching, but being allergic to coconut I am still waiting for a reaction. SO far not, but still worried that one day it will. I am still a fan, and one day hope to be brave enough to try the anti-perspirant products. I have read the criticisms here and glad I have those reviews to compare. I will not be on an auto ship ever, to judge by others problems.
But like all products worn or eaten, you just have to try it and see for yourself. Some people have entirely natural chemical compounds produced which when combined with any product will not be a good scent in the long run. No one's fault, and most likely not the fault of the product: just know it will not be a good fit for you, so move on and don't take it personally. What you eat, and sweat out as a result will effect your body's odor profile. You can't expect to eat a mountain of garlic and onions and expect to smell like a rose! As for delivery, it does seem to take a bit, and for the price you should not wait for the last 1/4 inch of use before a re-order! When I first tried it, I said that this needs to last at least 3 months to be economical for me. My one stick of Arrid XX tends to last over a year, and I know that is a bargain. It seems that this will do just as well.

they deserve negative revues,my order…

they deserve negative revues,my order wasnt shipped in full then I start emailing them customer"service"was irritated. relays takes days then I reach out on a media site so they completeley blocked me to the page and then revue dissapears as well , so it is easy to maintain 4+ stars then negative just gets deleted. As I see here it is a lot 1 star and issues are the same, dont support them , it is a lot of companys worth supporting this isnt one of them and nothing is unique about them, just look arround and you will find better, I did and fast , shipping is very slow and how you miss 30 items to add to the box from 36 ?and then need to chase them arround . DONT SUPPORT THEM

Caused Severe Chemical Burn Under Armpits

I have a severe chemical burn under both armpits and Lume is telling me that's extremely rare. They are LYING!! Obviously they don't read their reviews that about every other one has gotten a rash! Mine is not going away!!! This is a very dangerous product and needs to be taken off the market! Customer Service also refuses to put me in contact with Dan Griffiths, the President of Lume. I feel he should know how many people are getting bad rashes from this dangerous product that they are advertising is so safe!!!

Lume lies in their ads.

Lume says in their ad that runs wayyyy too much for something that “works.” That you only need the deodorant. Well it didn’t work and they said I needed their special detergent too! No! Don’t say I only need deodorant. This company sucks.
I found blue pansy deodorant that does work. And it smells better and is more organic and last a full 24 hours.
Don't lie in your overboard annoying ads when you need multiple products. Not just deodorant. I have cancer and that waste of money effected my groceries for the week so thank you.

This deodorant smells awful

This deodorant smells awful . I’d much rather have body smell than smell like this. My sister, mother and I thought it smells like crotch.
If it wasn’t for the fact that my father just passed away, and we had to deal with a whole bunch of other issues, I would’ve totally returned this item. It’s awful.

MANDO Mens Deodorant (LUME ) A friend…

MANDO Mens Deodorant (LUME ) A friend gave me a UNUSED Mando Deodorant by Lume. He did not like the smell. When I opened the container I INSTANTLY REALIZED I could never used this item. The smell is horrible. What I do not understand is the Creator's claim of being the 1st one to create this 72 hour WHOLE BODY DEODORANT. This is completely untrue. WHAT do you think BODY SPRAY is.
Also, There are several Body Spray and Deodorant Companies that have been producing 72 hour long lasting products for years. Old Spice plus Arm & Hammer are just two. Plus the cost of theirs are 2 times less expensive.

I used this deodorant & wash for 4…

I used this deodorant & wash for 4 months & had just purchased more when it completely stopped working & I had never had worse Body Order in my life. I tried for awhile after & it just quit working & I gave the new ones to my daughter. She used it for a short time but said she smelled worse than ever & it was horrible. Very disappointing.

Please have the owner of this company…

Please have the owner of this company stop doing Lume advertisements. SOOOOO ANNOYING. I'm tired of pressing the mute button with all the constant commercials. I challenge her to get through a presentation without using the words STINK, PITS, BUTT CRACK, UNDERBOOBS. Very off-putting. I do not need a reply.

This stuff actually stinks

I ordered a starter pack a few months ago and decided not to buy it again. I actually start smelling like I haven’t showered by the end of the day. The smell doesn’t hold up and the tangerine scented invisible cream smells like vomit and the vomit smell doesn’t fade or go away. The body wash didn’t smell bad, but I definitely don’t smell good after a short period of time. No way would I try to keep it for the 72 hours this company says it lasts. I smell worse after using it although I’ve showered.

OMG ! Smells really "off"

OMG, the deodorant just smells wrong ! I first ordered the powder scent, but that was very bad-smellng. I gave it another try and bought the unscented. And that was awful smelling as well. So I ask you; How could both smells BE so bad ! I will just stick with my lovely Secret~ Powder Fresh Deodorant.

I wish I would have read these reviews…

I wish I would have read these reviews before purchasing. The smell of this stuff is much worse than body odor. The smell was nauseating. I was expecting something pleasant. The commercials didn’t offend me but the smell of Lume sure did!!
