This is why you should try rubbing Listerine in your armpits

Armpits

Finding out you’re out of a certain product nearly always happens at the wrong moment. For example, you probably don’t notice or remember you’re out of deodorant until the moment you want to use it. Has this happened to you before and is it likely to happen again? Then we’ve got good news for you: in this instance, you can also use Listerine! By applying Listerine to your armpits, your armpits won’t just smell fresh; the bacteria underneath your armpits will also be killed by the mouth water.

How does it work?

Simply apply some Listerine to a cotton pad. A few drops of mouth water is enough already; you don’t need to drench the entire pad. Use the cotton pad to dab underneath your arms and the smells will disappear. Thanks to the mouth water, you will feel fresh all throughout the day.

Bonus tip

Listerine also helps against itches. Have you been bitten by a mosquito or is some kind of allergy causing your skin to itch? Apply a little bit of Listerine to a cotton pad and gently dab this onto the affected skin. The itch will subside quite quickly. This trick also works to reduce pain when you’ve been stung by a bee or a wasp.
