In the summer heat, sweating of the legs causes considerable discomfort, especially if this process is accompanied by an unpleasant odor. Where does this aroma come from and what determines its intensity?
The feet are a haven for millions of bacteria that feed on dead cells of the dermis and sweat. In the course of their life activity, natural wastes are generated, which exude the smell of noble cheeses. The more sweaty feet sweat, the more food bacteria have, and accordingly, the amber is stronger.
The cause of the unpleasant odor can be poor-quality shoes, synthetic underwear, as well as health problems: fungus, diabetes, impaired blood supply to the feet.
There are many ways to get rid of this scourge. Let's start with the elementary washing of the feet. Fortunately, today there are products for every taste on sale. For example, an antibacterial soap is much more effective in combating bad breath. And if, after water procedures, apply Deo-Control cream to the feet, the problem will disappear for a long time.
However, if you have not yet taken care of special tools, the usual deodorant, which is used for armpits, will work perfectly.
In the event that it is not the smell that causes discomfort, but excess moisture, bathtubs made of oak bark, Epsom salt or strong tea will come to the rescue. Do not forget to combine the procedures with applying the cream "Deo-control" to kill two birds with one stone. By the way, note that this miracle remedy is produced in Russia, the Kalina concern. There is a cream "Deo-control" about a hundred rubles. Since this product is quite affordable and you can purchase it in any store, let us dwell on it a little more.
What does the manufacturer promise us? Deodorizing foot cream eliminates the main cause of bad smell. However, it is for this that it is intended. What is the reason for this effect? It turns out to be a unique cream. Tea tree oil is a well-known antiseptic, and lavender, as you know, has an excellent deodorizing property. Cocoa and shea, combined with a complex of vitamins, provide care for the skin of the feet. If old corns or cracked heels are added to the problem of unpleasant odors, the cream “Deo-control” will save the situation.
If you do not trust the domestic manufacturer too much, pay attention to a similar product from Vichy, at a price of about 400 rubles. By the way, this cream can also be used for armpits and palms. Over time, it significantly reduces sweating, while maintaining a prolonged effect for a long time.
Today in Russian pharmacies you can buy cream deodorant from the Israeli company Hlavin. The price is quite reasonable - an economical package, designed for a year of use, costs about 350 rubles. Older people probably remember that in the early 90's this foot deodorant was a rarity in Russia. They got it with great difficulty, which is called "by pull".
As you can see, the choice of drugs is quite rich: "7 days" from Vichy, a similar product from Israeli manufacturers, the Russian cream "Deo-control".
Instructions for use of these funds are almost the same. All daily creams are applied before bedtime, on cleanly washed feet. You can update the “coating” as you smell, although manufacturers unanimously declare that the absence of unpleasant aromas is guaranteed for at least a week.
Before changing one drug to another, you need to take a break for a couple of days.
That's probably all about the use of deodorizing agents. However, this alone is usually not enough. After all, an unpleasant odor tends to concentrate on shoes. Therefore, do not forget to air, deodorize and wash your favorite shoes. Do not wear the same pair for two days in a row.
