While body odor is natural, smelly armpits can occasionally get out of hand. Even regular baths and an ample supply of perfumes do not appear to resolve this issue. We are all aware that unpleasant odors emanating from the underarms can be embarrassing. To help you resolve this vexing issue, we’ve compiled a list of six effective methods for getting rid of smelly armpits.
- Antimicrobial body wash
The bacteria, not the perspiration, cause the odor. Look for body washes that contain Benzoyl Peroxide, which aids in the reduction of bacteria and the prevention of body odor.
- Apple cider vinegar
Additionally, you can apply some apple cider vinegar to help fight the bacteria. It will assist in reducing odor by balancing the skin’s pH level. Do not be concerned about the smell of apple cider vinegar; it dissipates when dry. Avoid using this hack if you have recently shaved or waxed.
- Always allow for adequate drying time before applying anything.
Failure to properly dry the area prior to applying antiperspirant or deodorant can also contribute to the bad odor. Ensure that you thoroughly dry yourself before applying the stick.
- Experiment with a different brands : you believe that your stick or spray is not cutting it, you must switch brands or products. Occasionally, the chemistry of your skin and fragrance fails to work properly, resulting in an unpleasant odor.
- Sanitizer for the hands
If you don’t have an antiperspirant or deodorant on hand, a quick hack is to use a hand sanitizer. This germ-fighting solution may assist in taming offensive odors. However, if you’ve recently shaved or waxed, you should avoid this hack due to the possibility of burning.
