T'eo

Comments about LUSH T'eo:

I can think of NOTHING good to say about this product and that is such a bummer because I've loved every Lush product I've ever tried. It smells good when you buy it, before you use it, and the pros end there. It's awkward to put on in bar form because if you're even slightly wet, the bar eventually (with just a few uses for me) becomes hard and abrassive and it really stings my underarm skin. The bar itself makes this sting even worse.

Your other option is to then crush the bar and either cover your hands in the resulting powder or use a soft brush to apply it to your underarms. Which is more than I'd like to be doing just to keep from being smelly. But to add insult to injury, it doesn't even help keep the smell away! I don't mind being wet from sweat but at least keep me from stinking please! Total waste of money, will not be buying ever again.

Comments about LUSH T'eo:

First of all, if you shave, do not get this. It really isn't fun rubbing citrus into just-shaven skin. But even when I wax, T'eo is finnicky. Sometimes it gives me a rash, sometimes it doesn't. I've yet to figure out what causes it.

For me, the Greeench works just as well, and I've noticed it also cures the rash I get from T'eo. The talc base just feels better too. It's not scratchy and it doesn't leave weird residue behind like T'eo does.

Comments about LUSH T'eo:

I know this is way too early to judge (I got it yesterday), but my first impression of this bar is that it is way too smelly, it hits you when you walk into the bathroom and every time you raise your arm upon applying it. I have it in the paper bag it came in, but I may put it in a Ziploc bag today.
I do plan to keep using it, and I hope I get used to the smell, and I'll review it again.

Comments about LUSH T'eo:

I absolutely love the scent of two, but I will not buy it any more because every time I do I end up fighting with the bar. It ends uo getting a hard caked finish after several uses and becomes unusable. I would definitely go back to it in a heartbeat if it could be purchased in a dusting powder format.

Comments about LUSH T'eo:

At first, I wasn't using this properly - wasn't getting the baking soda to crumble against my skin - but I ran out of my crystal deodorant one day, and decided to give T'eo another shot. I was amazed at how effective it was - no odour - I don't have to worry about wearing a shirt twice. It allows me to perspire - and because I'm not worried about it - I perspire less!

Comments about LUSH T'eo:

I love love LOVE this! At first I wasn't sure it would work having had bad results with natural products and the fact that I rarely shave my armpits. However once I smelled it in store I was hooked, and have loved it since. After reading powdery reviews I decided to buy a massage bar tin to keep it in and apply it with a powder brush. In this way I have no mess, no irritation, no powdery residue... and I smell great through 10 hour work days in pants suits :D Yay! Lush delivers another winner.

Comments about LUSH T'eo:

I've been using T'eo for almost a week now and love it! It took a little bit of getting used to since it is quite different from applying ordinary commercial deodorants/antiperspirants.

I've found it's best to apply it to dry underarms and to use a gentle hand as it is quite rough (something that I have found I actually like about it-- the exfoliation has really helped with ingrown hairs).

It's been pretty long lasting, though I did find that after I was perspiring a lot I wanted to reapply it just in case.

I also only apply it with my shirt off-- this prevents any white powdery stains.

Comments about LUSH T'eo:

sooooo...this was my first natural deodorant and the first thing i noticed was the super delicious smell, its so fresh and fruity and it actually lasted all day! after a few days of using it my body adjusted to the change and i was able to use this all summer with little to no sweat, even at bootcamp or the gym.

now the bad part, randomly out of nowhere i started getting a gnarly rash under my pits so i had stopped using this(and all deodorant because my skin was so raw). the rash lasted several months. i threw out the old t'eo thinking perhaps it had gone bad but sure enough when i bought a new one,( and the rash had cleared) the same thing happened. so unfortunate bc i loved this product but it actually burns the bejesus out of me now :( i would still recommend this to ppl just be careful if it starts to itch.

side note- dream cream was the only thing that ccould cure the rash

Comments about LUSH T'eo:

The first time I applied it I was pleasantly suprised at how well it worked. But after a few uses the bar absorbs too much moisture and becomes gritty and painful to apply. However, I found that grinding it up into a powder and applying as a dusting powder still allowed the great smell and odor control i liked, but without the pain. I hope they will come out with a non-bar version of this deodorant.

Comments about LUSH T'eo:

I have tried many different deodorants before, everything from typical drug store brands to natural aluminum free brands to "clinical strength" brands. NOTHING seemed to control my excessive sweat and body odor. For the heck of it, I thought I would give this one a try, as I was already picking up some other products at Lush. I am shocked by how effective it is! I applied it first thing this morning, ran around all day running errands, certainly worked up a sweat, and there is zero body odor! Zero! I do have to admit that this product is a little messy, but I just load it on in the morning and it eventually dissolves and does not leave any white residue. I feel because it is a powder, as opposed to a gel, it keeps me feeling relatively dry throughout the day. This product is my life saver!!!

Comments about LUSH T'eo:

Maybe because I have some underarm hair and I'm putting too much on???but a lot of powder drops on the floor when you apply this. My wife has the same issue but less so. When wearing dark clothing and you sweat just a little, you come home realizing that your clothing has severe white underarm stains visible. Will go back to Aromaco.

Comments about LUSH T'eo:

I really enjoy this product but it crumbled all apart into powder very easily...[...]

Comments about LUSH T'eo:

While the Aromaco worked for me it left me a rash, so I tried this next. I have been trying to find a successful deodorant since I started using the stuff. This is the answer to my prayers.



I use a fork to scratch the surface abit then rub it on. Works wonderfully

Comments about LUSH T'eo:

The best thing about T'eo is that it's actually pretty effective, thanks to tea tree and lemon oils that slow down the growth of odour-causing bacteria. While not as strong as regular deodorant, T'eo won't poison your brain with aluminum, which is is enough reason to buy it! The bar is a bit hard, so you may need to scratch it with an object like a dull knife to get more than a dusting on your armpits - on the other hand, it lasts for months, unlike Lush's Coconut powder deodorant.

Comments about LUSH T'eo:

I have never found a natural antiperspirant/deoderant that works for me since I tend to sweat alot and get smelly pits by the end of the day. Well, this stuff actually works! It smells great and lasts all day long. My biggest complaint (although it doesn't deter me from buying it again) is that it stings quite badly when applied to newly shaven armpits (but the sting goes away in a few minutes)! I also wish it was a little less crumbly because I fear it isn't going to last a very long time.

Comments about LUSH T'eo:

I wanted to go all natural when it came to deodorant so I bought some T'eo even though some people complained of irritation. I have not noticed any irritation but I purposely don't apply it directly after shaving because it does have citrus in it!

T'eo works awesome to control my body odour, but it leaves white residue on my clothes which kind of sucks. It is easy for me to apply, I keep it stored in a ziplock bag and take it out partially to swipe my underarms every day.

Comments about LUSH T'eo:

I love T'eo! I decided to give it a shot because I was tired of conventional antiperspirants and deodorants running out halfway through my day. I've always heard about the negative health effects that come along with these products so the idea of re-applying them during the day does not thrill me. As a shift worker I often shower at night, and when I go to bed, I don't want to wake up having to shower again to feel fresh. I can apply T'eo before I go to bed and still wake up fresh. I just apply a little more, head to work and I am good for the day!

Comments about LUSH T'eo:

I used to use Aromaco, but became bored of it, and the fact that people told me I smelled like patchouli - so I tried T'eo. I love the smell, and the protection it gives. I tend to get stinky pretty fast, but T'eo stops that. I cannot seem to use it if I plan on ever shaving my pits again though - I got a HUGE painful red bumpy sore rash from doing so. Also, the blue wax that holds it together isn't too strong - it keeps falling off in chunks. I want to love T'eo but it's hard!

Comments about LUSH T'eo:

I have sensitive skin, but did not expect to get a bad rash from the product, since other LUSH products have been great. Do not buy this if you also have very fair sensitive skin!

Comments about LUSH T'eo:
