The smell of sweat can permanently discourage us from communicating with a person. It would seem that with such a variety of all kinds of chemistry, people still manage to smell bad.
Here are just the effectiveness of deodorants largely depends on the health and characteristics of the skin. How does it work? The deodorant clogs the pores, preventing perspiration. But sweat also contains a natural antibiotic that disinfects the skin and prevents bacteria from growing. In addition, many of the ingredients in the chemical composition of deodorant, such as aluminum, are not very useful for us.
Therefore, supporters of everything natural are looking for an opportunity to replace chemistry with natural remedies. And there is such a remedy: it is lime.
Bad smell is not the smell of sweat; it is caused by bacteria that grow on warm, damp skin. Lime juice can easily get rid of them.
This girl, known on the Internet as Vegan Tyandra, dreams of completely ridding her life of chemistry. She conducted an experiment: instead of deodorant, she rubbed her armpits with half a lime (the main thing is to make sure that there are no wounds and irritations on the skin).
You also need to make sure that the juice does not get on your clothes - traces may remain.
Lime can be stored for several days in a sealed plastic container or bag, cutting off the dried portion before use.
The girl filmed the entire experiment on video (in English):
For a whole week, the girl used lime instead of deodorant and was amazed: even without taking a shower before going to bed, she woke up in the morning fresh, without the slightest smell of sweat.
Would you take the risk?
