For underarm odor:
Roll 3 unpeeled lemons on hard surface until soft. Cut lemons in half. Rub each half on armpit, alternating pits. Shower afterwards. If you have hairy armpits, shave the day before. Acidity kills the odor.

ZINC!ZINC!ZINC! Thank God for Zinc! I take a daily tablet of Zinc of 50mg (bought at the vitamin dept. at walmart),and my armpits don't stink anymore AT ALL! I can be outside doing yard work and at the end of the day my armpit don't stink. This has been an embarassing issue for me for years and I found myself constantly throwing away shirts that has been ruined by the odor. Take zinc with a glass of milk or food, do not take it on a empty stomach.

Use baby powder to control perspiration and odor on any part of your body like feet, genital area, or arm pits. Also try shaving/trimming arm pits hairs and pubic hairs to reduce both perspiration and odor as well. These two things combined with regular showering/bathing and using clean clothes daily should help.

To cure over excessive under arm sweating. Wash the arm pit clean first (of course) pat under arm dry with a dry wash cloth, then take another wash cloth or cotton ball and soak it up with alcohol and run it under your arms let dry and use a deoderant with baking soda and oui la you have clean dry under arms. It works fine just try it and you'll see. Oh the deoderant you use doesn't have to be any particular brand just make sure you apply the it with baking soda.

Use tea-tree oil instead of deodorant or antiperspirant (which is very bad for you). It works *loads better* than antiperspirant, and somehow even when you sweat, you don't stink. Very cool.
I have only just discovered this, and it's changed my entire routine. It's my greatest discovery.
The only downfall is that you may not like the smell. I know I do, and my boyfriend does too, however!
