Reddit user Will be 150 shared the beauty tips in a post.

She said that in the summer she prefers to wear deodorant rather than put anything on.

“Use deodorant wherever you put skin to skin, so not just under your armpits, but also under your bikini line, under your breasts and on the backs of your knees if you sit a lot,” she said.

“I suffer from smelly feet, so I put deodorant on my feet every morning after showering.”

Additionally, she made sure to wear “loose-fitting, breathable clothing that doesn’t trap sweat.”

For perfumes she used a trick that allowed her to make the scent last longer.

“If you love perfume, there are tons of clean, fresh scents that smell like you just got out of the shower,” she said.

“My top tip for perfume is to put a little Vaseline on your chest and neck, under your hair, and spray each spot once.

“The Vaseline ensures that the scent stays on your skin better.

“This way I can smell my perfume all day, but it’s light enough that I’m not walking around in an overwhelming bubble of scent.”

During and after showering, she makes sure that all possible odors are removed.

“Exfoliate regularly, apply lotion after every shower and make sure you are completely dry before getting dressed,” she said.

“If you don’t wash your hair every day, wet your hair and use conditioner on the days you don’t wash it. You can also use dry shampoo to prevent smelly hair.”

Another perfume lover shared that they watch their diet to make sure they smell good.

“First of all, a low-sugar diet. I noticed that I hardly have any armpit odor since I stopped doing that,” they said.

“I also use different scents. For example, I use a citrus body lotion and a vanilla body spray, and on top of that I use a perfume with both citrus and vanilla.

“ONLY one spray of the perfume (otherwise it becomes too overpowering).

“I also use a citrus/vanilla shampoo and conditioner so I don’t get a conflicting scent like you get with Head & Shoulders for example.

“I find that if you layer the same scents on top of each other, it lasts longer.”

To avoid conflicting odors, she even opts for unscented detergent.
