    Just rub your arm pits with rubbing alcohol after a shower. The rubbing alcohol kills the bacteria that causes you to smell, and you won’t have to wear deodorant ( which is bad for you) anymore. You’ll still sweat, but the daily/nightly ritual of rubbing alcohol will keep you stink-free!

      You do realize that rubbing alcohol is a poison. Absorbing it through your arm pits might not be in your best interest.

      I use Purell hand sanitizer because I am allergic to every deodorant I tried. It’s 70% alcohol really does the trick as a deodorant.

    Popsci you need an old British guy to narrate the videos. This girl talks to soft and little girl like and its reminiscent of a asmr video. I want to learn but this is distracting.
