Q & A

Why is exfoliation important for smelling good?

Exfoliation removes dead skin cells and bacteria that soap alone might not get rid of. This helps prevent body odor and allows fragrance to adhere better to the skin.

What is dry brushing and when should you do it?

Dry brushing involves using a specific brush on dry skin before a shower. It helps with exfoliation, circulation, and lymphatic drainage, but it can be too harsh for sensitive skin.

What’s the difference between chemical and physical exfoliants?

A physical exfoliant, like a scrub, uses gritty particles to manually scrub away dead skin, while a chemical exfoliant, like salicylic acid, dissolves dead skin cells gently without friction.

Why is glycolic acid toner recommended for body odor?

Glycolic acid toner helps exfoliate the skin and eliminate bacteria, which can significantly reduce body odor, especially in areas like the armpits.

Can I exfoliate and shave on the same day?

It’s not recommended to exfoliate and shave on the same day, especially if you’re using a glycolic acid toner, as it may irritate your skin. It’s best to exfoliate one day and shave another.

What body wash should I use to smell good?

A good body wash should not only cleanse but also leave a pleasant fragrance on your skin. Brands like Rituals and Dove are good options. Always use a sponge for thorough cleansing.

Why should I use a body oil after my shower?

Body oil locks in moisture, keeps your skin soft, and adds a long-lasting scent, helping you smell amazing for hours after the shower.

How can body creams enhance your scent?

Using a body cream from the same line as your body wash or oil helps enhance the fragrance and creates a cohesive scent profile, which makes the fragrance last longer.

Why is it important to use a deodorant even if I use a glycolic acid toner?

Even though the glycolic acid toner helps with odor, deodorant is still important to ensure long-lasting freshness and to prevent any surprises throughout the day.

What’s the advantage of using a signature scent?

A signature scent creates a personal and memorable fragrance that becomes associated with you. It leaves a lasting impression, making it more personal and impactful than changing scents frequently.

How does hydration affect body odor?

Drinking plenty of water helps flush out toxins from the body, which can improve your natural scent. Staying hydrated keeps your skin healthy and prevents any unpleasant odors caused by dehydration.
