Review (5/5): FINALLY - a natural deodorant that doesn't burn
I am a big proponent of natural deodorants. Since I have a number of breast cancer survivors in my family, I'm careful about what goes onto my skin especially so close to my lymph nodes. I've tried a number of other products that either don't block the smell, smell pretty awful themselves or burn my armpits because of the baking soda. At one point in my youth I used baking soda and lemons which does kill the scent, but also my skin! Lume has been a game changer for me. It does have a slightly off putting initial scent (probably due to cinnamon or some other strong ingredient) but once it's been applied, it blocks the stink for ages! Of the scents I've tried, I prefer the citrus based ones so far, since they seem to overpower any other unpleasant smells. I'm certainly game to try the coconut and sandalwood options once I'm done with the twisted lime. Twisted lime and Tangerine are my faves so far.
