Hello read people, how are you all? Is it raining from where you are e now?

When I got out from work, dark clouds are covering the sky. Its been two days since the last rain and I am happy that clouds are hovering every where.

Its got a little rain showers here and there as I traveled home. I did not have an umbrella with me and I was a little worried A but good thing is that it was already past 8 in the evening when it rained real deal.

Okat, that above heppned last night, but I was not able to publish my article becausue my bidy gave ib to sleep.

Now back to the title, it is true that I stopped uasing deodorants, the ones that we put on underarms is what I am talking about. Does your underarms smell?

I smell bad so much when I do not get to out on deodorants, my father even told me to use white perla soap and leave them in my underarms for the day. I did tried them but maybe because most of my shirts are hand me downs, the previous owners must also had underarms that smells bad so mine still smelled bad especially when I dont put them at all.

I reached puberty and became concious about hygiene, I used deodorants every day and never forgot about them. Well, there may be times that I do, but I get more cautious of making moves than would make me sweaty.


Due to constant use, the chemicals made the skin in my underarms darker, and it did not look so well. In grown underarm hairs even contributed to the look.

Fast forward to my third pregnancy, I got health concious at that time, and allergic too. My skin is dry but I never liked the smell of lotions. All I can tolerate was the smell of the bath soap that we have and rhe shampoo brand that we are using. I did not have any choice, by the way.


But during the pregacy, I noticed that I smell nice: sweet exactly, even after I sweat after a day's work and my husband said that it was because of the Child inside me.

So I tried not putting deodorants For a day and still, I smell very nice. Ans since then, I do not use deodorants anymore.

What it did to me is that it lightened up my armpits since it was not exposed to chemicals like before. There are times that I smell sour but that was only because it would only be because I did not properly wash in the morning . But my smell now is wtill way better than what I had before.

I envy those people that don't smell even a little bit. Do you know some people who are like this too? I wondered what or how do they do it, I mean it couldn't be because of genetecs, isn't it?

In the present,

I still continued not using deodorants anymore even after giving birth. But somtimes, I get to be more careful of everything that i do especially making activities under the sun, It makes me concious everytime I sweat.

Doing so gives me lots of advantages: It lessened my exposure to chemicals, getting far from smells that can trigger allergies and it helped me save money from buying deodorants. Also, it made me save time from finding misplaced deodorants at home and letting them dry before putting on clothes.

What about you guys, do you put deodorants as often as you need it?
