How to get rid of body odour in summers?

It's summer time and so it is body odour time. However, body odour may be a perennial issue for some people. I follow 3 simple steps to keep body odour at bay all throughout the year.


1. Take bath at least twice in a day:

This is so important for everyone. Not only the working people should follow this, but also the stay at home people should do the same. Bathing helps to refresh ourselves in the most simple way and also helps us get rid of the germs and dirt that adheres to our skin.


2. Stop using deodorants and use lemon juice instead:

I know this sounds ridiculous but let me tell you, I have stopped using deodorants in my underarms for about a year, instead I use lemon juice which has resulted in 3 good things -
i) underarms are not that dark anymore
ii) body odour problem has decreased considerably and it makes me feel fresh all day long
iii) growth of underarm hair has been stunted.
For application of lemon juice, I slice a wedge of lemon and rub it on my underarms after taking shower.

Half a lemon a day keeps body odour away!



3. Scrub and moisturize your underarms: 

I never took good care of my underarms but for the past one year I have been doing so. I use a gentle scrub (gram flour) for scrubbing my underarms and use a moisturizer to keep it moisturized. I usually scrub and moisturize thrice in a week.

So these were some of the tricks I use to keep my body odour at bay. If you find this post useful and informative do leave a comment to let me know your thoughts.

HealthVit Bath & Body Tea Tree Body & Face Cream

Hello lovelies! Today I am reviewing a moisturizer: HealthVit Bath & Body Tea Tree Body & Face Cream. I had purchased this in the month of November anticipating the dry winter to take a toll on my skin. I generally have combination to oily skin all through the year except in the winter. However, this winter my skin was more on the normal side than drier. The only moisturizer that I use, irrespective of the season, is my Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion. Despite having oily skin, I really enjoy keeping my skin hydrated as it also helps to check further oil secretion. I came to know about the brand, HealthVit, from Nykaa when I was searching for a facewash, which is indeed a very good facewash. Hence, this brand a rather good impression to me.   HealthVit Bath & Body Tea Tree Body & Face Cream About HealthVit: HealthVit is a part of West-Coast Pharmaceutical Works Ltd. and primarily manufactures natural health and dietary supplements, personal care products, ...
