I was hoping someone might be able to help. I have a cotton shirt that I love to wear, but whenever I do, it seems to omit a funny BO smell from the armpits. I first wore it during summer during some very hot weather. I use plenty of Deoderant, and never usually get BO, but for some reason this shirt seems to have it. It is getting to the point where I don't want to wear the shirt because I am so self conscious about it. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to remove the odour, something I could soak it in perhaps?? Thanks for any ideas or help.
some materials just react with the skin that way... hope it doesnt happen when you wear it again, i know i had two different colour tops in the same material and everytime i wore them i stunk... it was a cotton polyester blend....
Hi Jennie13, thanks for the tip about the Bicarb, just curious, would I try and form a paste and rub it into the shirt, or wet the shirt and rub in??!??!
The bicarb paste may work, but if it is a poly/cotton blend, then may not. I have had tops like that and had to throw them, as the moment I got just a bit warm they would go stinky again and had tried bicarb on them.
I was given the tip to use mouthwash on my skin, and I have used it on a shirt with a similar issue. It kills the bacteria that causes the odour, has worked for me xx
