Hot in patches. With the torrential rain. No matter how romantic this weather makes you feel, your armpits sing a different tune! You may have grabbed an umbrella for the rainy season, but what about the climate change under your armpits? If the strong smell of sweat—the smell of sweat, the stench—ruins the whole mood before the romance gets close, then whose fault is it? Everyone will run away one by one. In fact, the humidity in the air increases so much in this season that the body becomes a running sweat factory. The result? A sticky feeling and a strange smell! What to do to get rid of this condition caused by the sweltering heat (Sweat Smell Removal Tips)?

7 ways to remove sweat odor
1.
Take a bath at the right time, at least twice a day. It is especially mandatory to take a bath after returning home from outside. During the monsoon, the air is humid, so bathing in lukewarm water keeps the pores of the skin clean.

2. Proper application of soap
does not require you to apply soap all over your body. However, use antibacterial soap thoroughly on your armpits, groin, and soles of your feet, as these are the areas where germs tend to thrive.

3. Dry yourself before getting dressed
. Don’t rush to get dressed right after taking a bath. Let your skin dry completely. Wearing clothes on a wet body traps moisture, which can lead to the growth of fungi and bacteria.

4. Antiperspirant, not Deo, is a reliable antiperspirant
that doesn’t just cover up bad odor. Deodorant only covers up odor, but antiperspirants stop sweat production. So use aluminum-containing antiperspirants during the monsoon.

5. Be aware of your clothing choices.
Synthetic or nylon clothing does not allow your skin to breathe. Wear light and breathable clothing like cotton or linen during the rainy season. This will help reduce sweating.

6. Cut down on food.
Excess garlic, onion, spicy food and caffeine affect the smell of body sweat. Drink more water, lemon juice and detox water during monsoon.

7. Trim body hair:
Trim or shave the hair on the parts of the body that sweat the most and keep it clean. This is because sweat and bacteria trapped in the hair cause bad odor.
