Brilio.net - Have you ever met someone who has a strong underarm odor ? Or are you even the one spreading unpleasant armpit odor? The strong smell of your armpits definitely makes you and those around you feel uncomfortable, because the fragrant aroma irritates your nose. Even though smelly armpits are synonymous with poor body hygiene, there are actually many influencing factors behind it.
Armpits have sweat glands that produce sweat and oil. Sweat itself has no odor, but when it mixes with bacteria on the skin, especially if the sweat is not cleaned immediately, it can cause an unpleasant odor. In addition, the armpit is a moist and warm place, ideal conditions for the growth of bacteria.
Bacteria that live on the skin can digest sweat and produce chemical compounds that cause odor. Then exposure to environmental pollution and consuming foods, such as garlic and onions, can affect underarm odor. To restore fragrance and comfort when socializing, you can overcome unpleasant odors by using deodorant spray.
You don't need to buy the product, you can make your own deodorant spray using ingredients around you. As done by YouTube user @simmy_glamourtips. In his short video upload, he uses rosewater and alum powder to get rid of underarm odor. Rosewater has a fragrant and refreshing aroma which can help disguise unpleasant odors in the armpits.
The natural content in rosewater has antimicrobial properties which can kill odor-causing bacteria that develop in the underarm area. Rosewater has natural refreshing and toner properties that can help freshen the skin in the underarm area. With these properties, the rose water used can make the skin feel cleaner and healthier. Not only that, rosewater is usually safe to use even for sensitive skin because it is gentle and does not cause irritation.
Meanwhile, alum powder (alum) has astringent properties which can help reduce sweat production in the underarm area, thereby reducing humidity which is an ideal environment for the growth of odor-causing bacteria. Alum has antimicrobial and antiseptic properties that can kill odor-causing bacteria on the skin, thereby helping reduce underarm odor.
