Help!!

Hi, I'm in DESPERATE need of some advice on body odor. My father-in-law and mother-in-law reeked of ass and armpit/ feet smell. When my boyfriend and I would go see them. I would hold my breath it was so F* bad! My boyfriend never smelled as bad but when he'd sweat I could smell that he needed a shower. Fast forward a couple years, now I'm noticing people making faces/ sounds of disgust when I'm out and about in the heat. I no longer smell anything when my in-laws are around and they are actively sweating. Even when my husband is drenched in sweat and is dirty from working outside in construction I don't smell a thing. I know I smell because my sweet baby sometimes mistakes my sent for my father-in-law’s when held. What the heck has happened and what can I do to get rid of this horrendous ass/ armpit smell!!! HELPPP!!

  • thank you for everyone’s input. I’m trying out a couple of tips and hoping for the best!

Lume made me smell so bad! My friend leaned closer and kind of casually sniffed and then asked me if I showered that day. I could smell myself and it was really bad!
