Low Budget Life 3: Fix the armpit odour πŸ˜žπŸ˜’πŸƒπŸš¨

This is part 3 and the freshest post on block. Like it pushed more than five to claim this position πŸ˜’

Finished writing a nice piece last week but it disappeared because of internet connection 😒 and I have been trying to rewrite it but it is taking my brain time to pit the pieces back together.

I was not planning on writing this but it jumped on me and refused to let me go. Forgive me, older awaiting topics πŸ€’πŸ˜–

Thank you for listening to the prologue πŸ™‚

MAIN TOPIC πŸ‘“

πŸ™

I am grateful not to have body odour as am not a fan of perfume, I don’t hate it, I only dont use it often. I am also a bit sensitive to harsh or strong ones, I prefer the lighter misty ones.

This is the third part of this series. I did not plan it. You already read that 😀.

Although I do not have body odour, I am extremely conscious of how I smell. I smell myself which sometimes look awkward, and repeatedly ask people around me: ” Am I smelling? “

They reply me with a strange look before shaking their head in the negative.

The reason for my notorious question is because I sweat a lot especially from my armpits πŸ˜₯. It is so annoying……. I use a good deodorant (Nivea) but sometimes when the weather is extreme, I let out some sweat and end up smelling sweaty…. .

I mentioned in the first part of this series, the different ways and body products that can be used to smell nice at the least expensive way. The topic is titled LOW BUDGET LIFE: YOU SMELL NICE, you can get it from the search box.

So, recently a lovely friend of mine was telling me about using lime and sugar to shave… It is a hurtful process, and maybe if I try it… Maybe… πŸ€•πŸ˜³. She then specified the armpits because I complained of the excess sweat and smell I was conscious about.

After weeks had passed, I decided to try it… Ummmm

Before we continue…..

Note: This was a personal experiment and not a definite remedy for serious body odour issues. If you have really troubling body odour, go see a doctor ❀

😩😩

So I decided to use lime. I am a huge fan of lime. I have talked about it in previous beauty tips, and use it in my tea. You can get tea recipes on my food blog down below the post. I usually have lime in my food rack. So have using the main juice for tea, I often squeeze the remaining on my face. This time, I squeezed it on my armpits.

I tried it twice and the results were beautiful.

No after smell. No armpit smell or sweaty smell. The weather has been raving mad in North Africa, and even though I have been sweating, my armpit was spared the smell πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

This made me happy. As a person who often still feels uncomfortable even after scrubbing the armpits unless I put my deodorant, this felt really comforting.

Some use lime to lighten dark armpits, I knew people used it for that but I never really knew it could also reduce smell, I just experimented.

So if you are like this guy down here who chases others without knowing.

poor guy 😞

You may want to first take good bath daily, at least twice. Get a good deodorant. Shave. Wear free clothing, allow some air. Then probably try using lime or lemon, they are siblings.

If your skin is sensitive, you could try diluting the juice in water first. Then use cotton wool to vigorously dab.

So useful

I wanted to add….

Materials needed

  • Lime or lemon
  • Cotton wool or your hands
  • Water for sensitive skin
  • A bowl, if you like

I was just making a big deal πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

I decided to share this simple tip if you would not mind trying it the next time you buy lemons or lime. Don’t waste a single drop of juice!! Use it all!! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

I am grateful I have girls who know about beauty tips because I keep learning every time 😊😊

If you have tried it, let me know. If you are willing to try it comment below. Share your warm thoughts on using lime for body odours. I decided not to go into stressful details about the specific importance but I came to tell you that it worked for me 😁😁

Okay. .. I wrote a lot in just a short while or maybe not. . .I hope to rewrite the lost piece soon and clear off my awaiting list.

I hope the Sun is not raining where you are🌞 β˜€
