Summers are equal to humidity,
perspiration, bacteria and therefore body odour. Believe it or not Indian
people are known as the stinky people in whole world. There are reasons to it
as well. Infact while travelling in metro I myself have observed well educated
girls and boys stinking that you wish to get out of metro immediately. Some
people live in this notion that they don’t smell bad. You have to understand
every person will stink if he or she is not taking proper care. What are the
things that you can do to stay odour free in summers?
Deodorant – Make sure to invest
in good quality deodorant and perfumes. Just applying deodorant once in morning
is not going to help. Always carry a bottle in your bag and keep on applying in
every three hours to stay fresh and fragrant.
Waxing – Both girls and guyz
should get their underarms hair clean. Girls should always go for waxing to
clean underarms hair and don’t use those hair removal creams. Those hair
removal creams are reason for pungent smell coming out of underarms. So always
go for waxing. Guys you are also advised to clean your underarms hair by using
razor or waxing. Those of you have heavy hair growth on chest and shoulders
please use a scissors or razor to trim or clean them. Perspiration on body hair
is the reason for foul smell coming from your body.
Water – People who drink less
water smell bad as compared to people who drink lot of water. Make sure you are
drinking a lot of fresh water. You can also add lemon drops. It makes sure that
your sweat doesn’t smell bad.
Diet – If you are eating more
spicy, oily food in summers than your sweat will be smelly. Try to eat light
food in summers to stay odour free. And if you eat less spicy food you will also
feel light.
Bathing – Whether you are staying
at home or you go out. You should take bath twice a day in summers. Once in the
morning and other in the evening after you came back from work.
Onions – Try to avoid eating
onions in salad especially when you are not at home. If you are in office don’t
carry cut onions with you. I understand that onions are good to protect you
from heat waves but if you are eating them in salads you will tend to smell
bad. Instead add some to your veggies while cooking. That way you are
benefited both ways.
Fruits – Increase intake of
fruits like melons, peaches, pears, apples in your diet. These fruits have
natural fragrance and minerals that keeps your body temperature stabilized and
helps in avoiding bad smelling sweat.
Lemonade – Instead of having cold
drinks and packaged juices try having lemonade. You can take one glass full of
cold water and squeeze one lemon, a pinch of black salt. Drink that before you
go out. Neither you will be affected by heat stroke nor will you smell bad.
Lemon is effective in keeping pungent smell away from your body.
These tips are tried and tested
on me. I hope that these tips were helpful.
Stick to R&W
