Body Odour, Begone!

advertisement
 
Human perspiration contains water, proteins, urea, ammonia, lactic acids and salts, which mix with bacteria to form body odour. The pungent body odour emitted by human adults is unique in the animal kingdom. The human smell is particularly outstanding because odours are released from almost every part of the body. Why some men’s odours are stronger than others depends on their diet, genetics, hygiene and state of health. Here’s how to keep yours in check.

KEEP YOUR SKIN CLEAN
1. Menscience Advanced Body Scrub
Apart from perspiration, bacteria feeds on dead skin tissue. Slough these off with a shower scrub, such as Menscience Advanced Body Scrub. It buffs away dead skin cells, build-ups and impurities all over your body to immediately reveal smoother, re-invigorated and super-clean skin.

BOOST ODOUR CONTROL
2. Kiehl’s Superbly Efficient Anti-perspirant and Deodorant
For lasting odour control, use Kiehl’s Superbly Efficient Anti- perspirant and Deodorant. It leaves skin feeling soft, soothed and conditioned, with 24-hour protection against sweat and smell. It also reduces underarm perspiration by using advanced micro-sized drying molecules for absorption, without leaving any residue.

CONTROL PERSPIRATION
3. Lab Series Anti-perspirant Deodorant Stick
A deodorant that also controls perspiration, such as Lab Series Antiperspirant Deodorant Stick, ensures that you’re comfortable, dry and odour-free. Its sheer white formula will not flake or transfer onto clothing. It’s unscented and, hence, may be used with any fragrance.
