Feeling Fresh All Day Is Easy With These Tips

Feeling fresh is a common goal among Filipinos. With the heat and humidity, natural all-day freshness is almost impossible to achieve. Thankfully, some products can help. From body washes to deodorants, body sprays, and toothpaste, these bath and personal grooming essentials will keep you looking and smelling like you just stepped out of the shower. The best part? They’re on sale every payday! You read that right. Keep scrolling to learn more.

Never skip showering, no matter how late you are. Feeling fresh isn’t just about how you look or smell – it’s the ability to keep your cool and manage stress. According to the Evidence-Based Complementary Alternative Medicine Journal, bathing in hot water reduces stress and inflammation. Moreover, it also improves your heart health and helps you breathe better. However, avoid doing this daily and make it quick because hot water can dry out your skin.

With overall wellness comes the ability to chill. So, start your day right with a shower with Dove Go Fresh Sakura Blossom Body Wash, a fragrant formula that cleans while moisturizing your skin.

Sweating, while natural and totally okay, can be a huge hassle. Physical activity, heat, and stressful situations can make you sweat more. Protect yourself from underarm sweat and odor with deodorant and antiperspirant that mask odor and control sweating. A multi-tasking formula such as Rexona Women Powder Dry Roll-On Antiperspirant Deodorant can keep you fresh and sweat-free all day. It contains Motion sense technology that makes you fresher with every move.

If you have sensitive skin, try Dove 0% Aluminum Deodorant Aerosol, a natural antiperspirant with no aluminum salts or alcohol that can irritate your skin. It also has Dove’s signature 1/4 moisturizing cream to give you fresher and smoother underarms.

Boost your self-esteem by spraying on a fragrance you like before heading out. Choose a water-based for a light scent or an oil-based perfume if you want something long-lasting. Besides keeping you fresh, using your favorite scent can increase your confidence while making you appear more confident to others. Make sure to spray it on straight out of the shower. To refresh your fragrance in the middle of the day, mist your clothing or hair instead of spritzing directly on your skin. 

For cool dudes who want to stay fresh all day, try Axe Bodyspray Dark Temptation. It delivers a 48-hour high-definition, dark chocolate scent and fights odor-causing bacteria as you sweat.

Nothing makes you feel icky like dirty teeth. Floss your teeth upon waking up to eliminate bacteria, which multiply in your mouth while you sleep. It removes plaque, food, and saliva between your teeth and gums. Flossing before brushing works best since the latter effectively washes all these particles away. Doing so also busts the dreaded “morning breath” and protects your teeth from acids in food. Use closeup Red Hot Toothpaste, a fluoride gel with zinc antibacterial mouthwash that lifts plaque and guards against cavities.

The worn clothes hanging on your furniture that you haven't bothered to wash? Don't reuse them just yet! These “purgatory pieces” stink faster and attract bugs and pests to your home. Of course, you have every right to wear your clothes more than once. However, go for laundered clothing if you want to feel, look, and smell fresh all day.

Staying hydrated and feeling fresh go hand in hand. Drinking water can help regulate your body temperature and help you cool down. On extra-warm days, it also replenishes lost moisture from sweating. Keeping your hydration levels up also makes your skin look better – like you’ve just had eight hours of sleep, regular exercise, and zero stress your entire life. Aside from drinking water, you could also load up on water-rich foods like lettuce, watermelons, and peaches.
