I read that as antidepressant
Antiperspirant gives me rashes
I read it as that too!
So THATS what that smell is…
For anyone else curious about the why
Gel plugs (how antiperspirant works on your sweat glands) are finicky. They need a little bit of sweat in order to form—but not too much. Antiperspirant applied in the morning isn’t ideal, because people sweat more during waking hours, when they’re active. If the armpits are too sweaty in the hours after application, the product gets washed away before it can form the plugs. The body is cooler and calmer during sleep. For gel plugs to form, “baseline sweating is optimal at nighttime before bed,” Glaser told me. Nighttime application has been shown to increase the sweat-reduction ability of normal antiperspirant from 56 percent to 73 percent.
how do i apply bed
Wait, but wouldn’t I just wash it right off the next morning when I shower first thing? Well…3rd thing. First I poop. Then I wait a half hour. THEN I shower.
Hard take that will expose me and a lot of people might not relate. But I shower at night before bed. I don’t shower in the morning. Never smelled or anything. For those who shower after pooping, I’m an evening pooper as well. So, maybe there’s something to this. Even with moderate sweat during the day, I never have body odor. It usually takes very heavy sweat from exercise or sports, or two days at least without a shower (very rare occurrence) for me to smell like anything.
I also shower before bed, never really thought about it. I just always like to dispose of the day before going to bed.
I have experienced pretty much the same, regarding the next day and really only noticing when working out and sweating a lot.
I am also in the mood for exposing myself. I rarely use deodorant. I find it rather stinks much sooner and stronger with deodorant, than without.
I do this already simply because I shower at night and prefer to apply to clean skin. Always thought I was just a pretty unsweaty person. TIL
Thanks :)
Super interesting read, thank you!
