Tips On How to Prevent Body Odour

Breaking news: Everybody sweats!!!

So it’s not just you who has suddenly developed a slightly smelly disposition. All of us are prone to having some degree of body odour. So don’t worry if you’re feeling embarrassed because this is a universal problem! When you’re doing any physical activity like walking under the sun, or simply sitting in a warm room, it’s a natural response for your body to release sweat. It’s your body’s response to regulating its temperature. The awful smell that you might be experiencing can definitely be awkward, especially when you’re with your friends and family. So if you’re wondering how to get rid of body odour, read on.

The honest fact is that your sweat is usually supposed to be odorless. What causes the unpleasant smell is the buildup of bacteria on your skin with sweat and oils. They react with the skin and break down the fatty acids & proteins (yes, nerd talk!) causing the supposed bad odour.

To control this smell- and avoid the embarrassment of body odor-you should nip the problem in the bud. 

Here are some proven tips on how to stop body odour to stay fresh and smell great every day!

1. Use a Deodorant Spray

This one’s a no brainer. If you’re someone who does some sort of physical activity everyday (walk up the stairs, grocery runs, work outs) it’s essential that you use a strong deodorant spray to keep any foul odours that may arise during the course of your day. There could be many reasons for you to sweat more than usual but being mindful about your body odour is essential!

Fix your Diet

When you eat certain kinds of foods, it may lead you to sweat more! Yes, that can happen. Foods such as hot peppers and spicy food might lead to foul body odor. The aroma of some foods like garlic and onions can also be carried through sweat (who knew!). Drinks like alcohol and caffeine may also cause your body to sweat more. So do yourself a favor, and watch what you eat!

 

3. Use a Roll On

Wear Breathable Fabrics

You might not be aware, but the kind of fabric you wear can also affect how much you sweat during daily physical activities. So do yourself a big one and choose fabrics with higher breathability like silk, cotton and wool to allow air to enter your clothing and keep any sweat build up at bay. 

 

5. Keep your Clothes Clean & Use Perfume

Changing clothes often if you sweat heavily would be a good choice. Fresh clothes will always help keep body odor down. Make sure you’re taking care of your feet as well by changing your socks often and washing them well! Additionally, you could also opt to use some perfume that masks any odour that might be present and keep you feeling fresh all day. We recommend the Body Cupid Floral Garden Eua-De-Parfum!

So there you go, it’s time for you to have that Cinderella moment and go from drab to fab in no time. Get ready to go odour-less with these foolproof tips and get rid of those smelly pits!
