With the recent concerns about the aluminum in over the counter deodorants
not being good for you and clogging your pores, I decided to try something different. I just take a bunch of those flat cotton pads that people use to put on makeup, stack them in a jar that has a tight fitting lid, and soak them with rubbing alcohol. I keep a jar at work and a jar at home and swipe one across my armpits anytime I need to freshen up. When used in conjunction with regular normal showering, I don't need deodorant at all anymore, because the alcohol kills any bad-smelling bacteria. Another bonus from this method is that I can wear sleeveless fashions, and not have to worry about white residue. Plus rubbing alcohol is cheap and lasts a long time! Another thing you can do to reduce BO is to eat less refined sugar. Excess sugar will be present in your sweat and bacteria love to feed on it. Less sugar = fewer bacteria = less BO! |
