    As a dermatologist, if you are double cleansing in the shower, make sure you aren't using physical and/or chemical exfoliants for both cleanses, and you should really only be exfoliating your body (ie. Using a loofah) once or twice a week. It's also not needed for your whole body. Try just to double cleanse the back of your neck (a bit more optional), armpits, bellybutton, groin, and feet. It's just too much for the rest of your skin otherwise. You might create microtears in the protective barrier which will allow more bacteria to enter the skin and potentially cause breakouts, drying, or premature aging. If you are still having trouble with body odor, especially under the armpits, see a dermatologist. Some people just have higher bacterial loads under the arms that need to be treated with a topical antibacterial ointment to really knock the smell and bacteria out. Over-cleansing, especially if it's to the point of irritation, is not the answer and will make the problem worse. You always want to choose the most gentle option possible.

    Also when ever you have a cold or terribly Ill, clean up as soon as you can. Change toothbrush, sterilize you tongue scrapper, wipe down surfaces and change sheets, towels and also change cups every 30mins to avoid recontamination. I do these everytime I’m sick and in as soon as 24 hrs I already start feeling better.

      Not exactly "hygiene stuff", more like health-care-ish, but when you get that weird (usually in the morning) feeling in your neck, scratchy and uncomfortable, do not hesitate. Boil some water, pour it in a cup and then add cold water - to make it warm, not too hot to be uncomfy. Put salt in it (you try how much, some people tend to gag, but it isn't supposed to taste good tho :Dd), mix it well and then gargle thoroughly, spit out... It's sterilizing.
      You repeat it several times a day (when you already have some salt water mixed in your cup, you do not need to reheat it, the temperature was important mostly for the dissolution).
      If normal salt is too aggressive, there is a special alternative - at least in my country, you can buy gargle salt in every pharmacy:)

      So true. I find it hilarious that these girls and young women think that you have to do all of these different things outwardly for hygiene - I mean of course shower and wear deodorant, but you can be the cleanest person outwardly and if you still fill your body with junk, you're going to smell bad when you sweat, etc. Being clean from the inside out is where it's at.

Ate cruciferous vegetables, drank water with lemon and mint (no colored drinks). I swear, even if I sweat, I don’t smell at all.

    Okay, so I did some research on Oil Pulling, for those who do not know what it is oil pulling is a practice supported by dentist for just overall oral hygiene, in the morning when you wake up before you eat, drink, and brush your teeth, you would get a tablespoon amount of olive oil, coconut oil, or sesame oil and swish it around your mouth for about 15-20 but 30 max depending on how much you oil pull. It is recommended to do it everyday to improve oral hygiene, and get rid of any bacteria, and helps with saliva, and other things in your mouth! After your finished you would spit it out (DO NOT SWALLOW ANY!) then you can continue on your normal routine and brush flause, brush your teeth, and use mouth wash.

    Omg I consider myself a hygiene guru because I’m soooo passionate about it too! In high school I used to always think I smell bad because back then my deodorant didn’t work for me. None did. It wasn’t until I discovered natural doe that something worked for me, and I still make my own demo to this day. Your tip about double cleansing…. Why didn’t I think of that before?! Gonna do that now because sometimes I still have a slight smell under my armpit after showering . Will try using glycolic acid under there too. As for the reapplying tip, that’s a good one. I went out last Saturday and the sun was so hot I was sweating. Wish I had my deodorant (it’d just melt tho oof) to freshen up when I went to the bathroom. But I had to make do with my antibacterial wipes . Another tip I’d recommend is using dove sensitive deo between your thigh crease (game changer! I found this one on Reddit and it really eliminated the sour ish scheme from my crotch when I sweat, esp when I have hair down there), applying hand sanitizer before deodorant and using a peri bottle or water to briefly wash the vagina after peeing or pooing then use a tissue to lightly pat yourself dry. Hygiene is so important to me. I don’t ever want to be perceived as someone who smells

    @emylleleonez9265 Před rokem +270

    Hi, as a Brazilian, I feel that I must inform you about the hygiene routine of our culture inherited from the indigenous people.
    In Brazil we have the custom of sanitizing ourselves three or more times a day. In the morning, as soon as we wake up, we shower, brush our teeth and get ready (We are always using perfumes, deodorant and skin creams), in the afternoon and at night. Parents, or teacher, teach this at school. Phrases like "Don't go to bed without taking a shower and cleaning up the dirt from the street." It is common that we take a shower before leaving the house, even if your last shower was 3 hours ago, and when we return home we take another shower to clean ourselves up.
    Brazilian hygiene is something so serious that we tend to judge people who only take a shower or brush their teeth once a day.
    Additional note on the hygiene routine:
    Body/skin: despite two or more baths a day, only one of the baths is a thorough cleaning, the other two baths are more like a relief from the tropical heat of the country. Washing consists of washing, with a soap of your choice, all over the body.
    Hair: in Brazil, hair routines are something really popular, and the number of times we wash our hair a day or week depends on the person's routine. (I wet it once a day and wash it every other day).
    Not to mention the waxing and:
    Cleaning Nails: having nails cut and clean and manicured is also something we are taught. But not everyone cares about that.
    Teeth: We brush our teeth when we wake up and before going to sleep (we are educated about that), not to mention people who always brush after a meal.

    Sweat does not cause odor. It is the bacteria that eats the sweat that will cause odor. Use something like a benzoyl peroxide wash under your arms for a few minutes will kill that bacteria. Using an exfoliating acid like glycolic acid also helps because it creates a lower pH environment where bacteria can't thrive, but be careful about using these things everyday so you're not overexfoliating.

Same as you, I would wear black shirts to hide the sweat.

    I learned a while ago that you should clean your toothbrush everytime you use it. Your supposed to soak your toothbrush in like a tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide for 15 minutes. Which makes sense because there is a lot of germs on a toothbrush hence you have to brush everyday TWICE a day.

    Flossing is essencial for oral hygiene! Even after washing your teeth you would be surprised to see how much tartar and residues are still between your teeth. Till you get a hang of it it will take quite some time but after the adaptation phase it's relativelly quick. A trick that I do is to floss first and brush my teeth after, that way it's more likely that I do it. I learned how to floss correctly with this video: What most people don't know- FT.

    Great video. You provided some good tips. I’m going to try that apple cider bath and the witch hazel in the summers. One tip I have to offer is chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is a natural deodorant. It cleans from within. My family had that sick smell coming from their pours after being sick and I made them drink a teaspoon a day inside iced tea for about a week and the smell went away. This process also helped my smelly teen.

    The toothbrush tip is great - electric is best! But the vagina is self-cleaning and OB/GYNs will tell you that the (very sensitive) vulva only needs water. You can also use a mild soap like Dove with water if you prefer. If you're having odor, it's probably an infection that needs a prescription.

    another tip!!!! if your sweat smells even after applying deodorant try exfoliating that area. dead skin cells clog your pores and keep the odor & germs so using a gentle(!) exfoliant like salicylic acid might help reduce it. after taking a shower, I usually apply it overnight on my armpits and wash it off the next day, followed by a deodorant. but do it once a week or two to avoid irritation

Because my baseline hygiene and diet is good my sweat doesn't smell bad its just the amount I'm concerned with. I step out in heat close to 90 degrees and its almost instant. I think i'll go back to anti-perspirant just to avoid the embarrassment.

    About the electric toothbrushes: there are ones that spin and ones that vibrate and the ones that spin are better suited for you if you judge yourself not to be the best tooth-brusher. it‘s more likely to reach deeper spots between teeth if you just happen to hold it correctly for a second. the ones that vibrate are great if you know you‘re good at brushing your teeth and how to reach all those hidden corners. (I sell these things). and also don‘t forget to floss!

    Thanks for sharing your finds. I have the Phillips toothbrush with a sanitizer (that I use weekly). I will look into the circular style. I also love using a water flosser.
    I double cleanse my face with an oil blend, followed by cetaphil for sensitive skin (I have eczema.).
    My two hygiene finds:
    1) Honest sensitive wipes. I alternate using these with a dedicated cloth to cleanse after using traditional tp (to stay fresher). I also use these to wipe off sweat so bacteria doesn’t linger.
    2) I love a kessa mitt (used in traditional Moroccan/Turkish bath houses) - It’s my refined twist on my traditional double cleanse routine. I get wet, lather up a bath puff & wet the kessa (no soap on the kessa), turn off water, use the lathered puff, then follow with scrubbing with the damp kessa (first time users, be gentle) and rinsing.
    It exfoliates very well, even heels. There are plenty write-ups on it.

    3.There’s also antibacterial lotion if you’re extra sweaty in the summer.
    4.Don’t eat before brushing your teeth because of acid. Your mouth is more acidic after eating which is why you want to wait 20-30 minutes so you’re not brushing your teeth in an acidic environment that will erode enamel
