Metro-work-sleep. Whether we prefer to take our shower in the evening or in the morning, brushing our teeth and deodorant are definitely part of everyone's morning routine. Between multiple layers of clothing and a heat wave, it is sometimes difficult to find a suitable deodorant. While some choose natural deodorants or antiperspirants or even decide to do without them altogether, and some celebrities like Dax Shepard and Kristen Bell or Jake Gyllenhaal say that you have to wait until you smell bad before taking a bath, we now discover that we apply our deodorant incorrectly.
On TikTok, @Sidneyraz got more than 500,000 likes thanks to this trick. The tik tokeur shares everyday tips and tricks that he would have liked to learn before he turned 30. He therefore explains that you must apply the deodorant on clean, dry skin in the evening , and not in the morning before leaving the house as most people certainly do.
And after checking, it seems that this is true. Indeed, in the evening our body temperature is lower and our armpits drier, which facilitates absorption of an antiperspirant. It is also beneficial for people who sweat a lot, because at night our sweat glands are less active while we sleep.
It is also recommended to wait until the deodorant is well absorbed before putting on our clothes. Basically, putting deodorant under our clothes in the morning before taking the metro or going to work is really the worst thing to do. That's how you'll sweat even more, even smell bad as soon as you get to work.
Here's something most people probably don't know:The product in deodorants takes between six and eight hours to penetrate our sweat ducts, those that control perspiration. Hence the usefulness of putting it on in the evening and not just before leaving. Even if you take a shower or a bath the next morning, the deodorant should still be effective. And we save 5 seconds on our schedule!
