skin & microbiome health
What is B.O. and why do we get it?
+-When stress and heat trigger sweating, certain bacteria living on your skin can break down these biofluids….and, while you won't see it or feel it, you'll smell it!
What is the skin microbiome and why is it important?
+-The microbiome is like an army of good bacteria living on our skin, which helps protect us from harmful bacteria and disease.
How do I maintain a healthy skin microbiome?
+-Choose products like hume supernatural that incorporate probiotic-derived ingredients and avoid products that contain harsh preservatives and antimicrobials like triclosan.

How do hume Deodorants work?
+-First, hume helps keep you dry with super-absorbers, including fossilized algae and tapioca. Then, a second layer of protection prevents odor before it starts, while also keeping the microbiome in a healthy balance using probiotic-derived deodorizers. Finally, hume nourishes, soothes, and hydrates skin with the power of natural desert flora, like Prickly Pear, which can thrive in even the most extreme environments.
Are your products for men or women?
+-Not just for men, nor just for women, hume is a modern gender neutral brand that stands for you, me, and all humans. All of our products are made with all skin types in mind, tested and optimized with a diverse human population (never tested on animals!) Our purpose is to live supernaturally and to inspire all humans to do the same.
Does hume have any "dirty" ingredients, or is it a "clean" formula?
+-Hume products are both supernatural and super clean! Our proprietary formulas contain no aluminum, phthalates, parabens, gluten, baking soda, or triclosan.
Is hume vegan?
+-Our original deodorant stick, body wash, and dry body oil have always been vegan, and our new All Body Deodorant includes beeswax. All hume products are cruelty free and Leaping Bunny Approved.
When should I apply hume Deodorants?
+-For optimal results, apply hume deodorant to clean, dry skin at the beginning of your day.
Who is All Body Deodorant for?
+-All humans, all bodies, all body parts (external only).
Where and how do I use All Body Deodorant?
+-If you sweat there, you can use it there. Start with a pea-sized amount of deodorizing balm and massage it into the desired area on clean, dry skin. For external use only.
Is All Body Deodorant safe for sensitive skin?
+-All Body Deo is clinically tested on sensitive skin and safe for all skin types. It's a premium, microbiome approved formula for all humans, all bodies, and all body parts. Aluminum free, baking soda free, AHA/BHA free, paraben free, phthalate free, talc free, and cruelty free.
How does All Body Deodorant work?
+-All Body Deo works in 4 ways to nurture your skin microbiome and eliminate body odor.
- Prebiotics support a healthy microbiome
- Plant-based zinc ricinoleate neutralizes odors
- Antioxidant-rich ingredients nourish the skin barrier and moisturize skin
- Anti-chafe properties and a velvety, dry-touch feel
What's the difference between the original Deodorant stick versus new All Body Deodorant?
+-Form meets function. You sweat in more places than just your pits, so we made a deodorant for that. The Deodorant stick is optimized for your underarm skin and wetness absorption. Our All Body Deodorant is an easy-to-apply balm that delivers superior skincare benefits and is ideal for sensitive skin.
How do I use the Deodorant stick and All Body Deodorant together?
+-We recommend continuing use of our original Deodorant stick on your underarms, and adding All Body Deodorant to your routine for everywhere else - feet, underboob, below the belt, rolls, folds, cracks, crevices, and anywhere else on your skin that sweats or needs a little love.
Does All Body Deodorant help with chafing?
+-Apply to inner thighs or anywhere where skin touches skin to reduce chafing.
Why did you change your Deodorant stick packaging?
+-- We redesigned the shape to create a better overall underarm experience. The wider, oval application helps the product glide on more smoothly and cover more area with fewer swipes
- This was also an important step for us as we work toward becoming more sustainable. The new oval deo stick contains 50% less plastic compared to our original round deo stick, and also contains only recyclable plastics (PP and HDPE)
- We were able to transition our supply chain entirely to the USA with USA-made packaging
Is the Body Wash safe for sensitive skin?
+-Yes, many hume customers with sensitive skin find it to be soothing. It's dermatologist-tested and hypoallergenic. It's free from sulfates, phthalates, and parabens. Still, if you're prone to irritation, we recommend consulting your primary care physician before adding something new to your routine!
Is the Body Wash dermatologist tested / hypoallergenic?
+-Yes, like all other hume products, it's dermatologist-tested and hypoallergenic!
What are the key ingredients in the Body Wash?
+-- Niacinamide (nourishes skin barrier)
- Hyaluronic Acid (deep hydration)
- Probiotic ferments (balance microbiome)
- Prebiotic Inulin (from chicory root) & evodia rutaecarpa (balance microbiome)
- Giant Kelp Extract (soothing)
- Prickly Pear Seed Oil + Cactus Flower Extract (antioxidant, soothing)
- Aloe + Coconut Fruit Extract (hydration + refresh)
Is the Body Wash suitable for dry skin?
+-Yes, it's ultra nourishing. It has Niacinamide to strengthen the skin barrier + improve texture and Hyaluronic Acid for deep hydration.
Can the Body Wash be used as a facial cleanser?
+-Hume body wash is designed for the body. We don't recommend using it to wash the face.
What makes the Dry Body Oil "dry"?
+-A proprietary blend of oils that are formulated to absorb instantly into the skin for a deep moisturization instead of leaving an oily residue. Our concentrated blend of Prickly Pear Oil, Apricot Kernel Oil, Coconut MCTs, and Olive Oil strengthens the skin barrier, supports the skin microbiome, and leaves behind smooth, velvety soft skin.
Is your fragrance "clean"?
+-We approach fragrance like the rest of our formulas - without compromise. Our fragrances are free from all phthalates, parabens, sulfates, and 1,4-dioxane, using only natural, safe synthetic or essential oil aromatic ingredients. We follow the strict guidelines of IFRA (International Fragrance Regulatory Association) to ensure all of our fragrance compositions meet the highest standards for safety and quality.
What do each of the scents smell like?
+-Our complex signature scents are a blend of the unexpected and intimately familiar, rooted in the nostalgia of our favorite memories, places and experiences that make us feel good and smell happy. All of our scents are designed to be gender-neutral.
- Amber Woods: Complex richness of amber, vanilla, and coconut cream with smooth woodsy notes.
- After Rain: Cool, bright scent of fresh rain with a ray of citrus.
- Coconut Coast: Freshly cracked coconut and airy sea salt, intertwined with creamy tonka bean and a hint of citrus.
- Desert Bloom: Imagine crisp citrus surrounded by exotic neroli blossom and sweet agave.
- Fragrance Free: When we say Fragrance Free, we mean it. Not even that unscented scented smell some brands use. Promise.
- Out West: A smokiness of softened tobacco leaves, elegant leather, and the warmth of cedarwood.
- Santal Sun: A warm, woody blend of santal, where soft sandalwood and cedar meet wispy violet leaves. The scent you'll never forget.
- Wild Coral: Euphoric notes of pressed watermelon in a field of star lily, effortlessly grounded by creamy vanilla and rich sandalwood and santal.
- Vanilla Daze: Gourmand vanilla in an intoxicating blend of airy crème, caffè latte, with hints of sheer sandalwood and black pepper.
