Also washing your hair (which holds a lot of scents good or bad) ,your pillows and sheets. house smell (older people tend to hoard things), car smell, heck even your purse can hold a smell. All of that contributes to it. Taraji P Henson’s line at Walmart has a really good scrub. It’s called TPH vanilla and tuberose. I add vinegar to my laundry.
White lady here, Just found you. Loved your video! I subscribed, I hope you include ALL women in your videos. It's true, older people do smell. I use to worknin nursing homes, and I remember going to my parents home one day, they were in their early 60's, and ooooohweee! Im almost 60 now, and never want to have old lady smell. Im going to use some of the products you recommended. Thankyou! ❤😊
Thank you for starting this conversation, and yes it’s true! When I first noticed it I had to think “Did I forget to take a shower this morning”? The smell is gym b.o. and sometimes a musty smell. I always have gentle wet wipes and a travel size deodorant in my purse.
Rotate between hot and cold water to get you're lymphatic system to push out the garbage that builds up in you're system, along with scrubbing the body to open the pores, another trick is to sit in a tub of hot water as much as you can stand after scrubbing that also get rid of colds it makes you're lymphatic system work
Old white lady here. Thank you for tackling this subject. I've heard people say that old people's houses smell different. My husband is black and I have always been jealous of his skin. It's softer than mine! I have skin tags and moles and age spots, and he glows. So I make extra effort, and I still can't match his melanin magic. One thing that does work for me, I buy exfoliating gloves at Dollar Tree. Only $1.25, for one. I wash my whole body with that, and I wash them in the washer. I don't dry them in the dryer tho. These things are awesome! They have buffed away the skin tags and the bumps, and I am working on the age spots too. I put salicylic acid creme on my face, before moisturizing, and then when I shower I wash my face with the exfoliating gloves, (along with the rest of me 😄) and I am seeing some improvement. And I try to always apply some lotion. I don't want to smell bad either. Old age is a privelege that many don't get to enjoy. But why do we have a littany of other issues to deal with? Like aches and pains, and wrinkles. Which is another thing, I think melanin is the one thing that actually fights wrinkles. And the one thing I can't get. 😉
You are most welcome!! My husband has the pretiest chocloate skin and he’s 8 years older than me but you would never know it! Gets on my nevers!! Lol! I like those gloves too!! Thanks so much for commenting & watching this video! 🥰
Yes they do, it's bloody annoying! Before menopause it was a different story, the insane sweating & hormonal changes seem to require more frequent washing. It's like a kick in the gut after all we went through with menstruation & childbirth!
Me myself has started using witch Hazel. do my butt crack along my private area and under my arms. It helped me tremendously. When I first start using it.I thought it would make me burn but it has not made me burn it all
I just recently heard this about witch hazel. I haven't tried Lume yet. I be noticed this about smelling sweating. But I am thinking about waxing the private areas. I also detox my armpits. This really does prevent sweaty smell. Thanks for your good information. 😃😃
New subscriber here. Yes, I have never sweated until after 60, even under my boobs. My urine smells weird and I’m sure it’s my medications. But you’ve got a great channel, so I’ll be here often.
Oh Lord! I thought I was the only one 😂😂❤❤🙏🏽🙏🏽 Thanks for this topic! You just got a new subscriber 🩷🩷 I actually use lemon mixed with warm water to wash the smelly areas and that pretty much works for me.
I went thru early menopause in my late 30’s and noticed my body smelled differently. It passed once I was post menopausal. Water intake and eating more balanced diet helped. But I’m sure it will continue to change as I age.. it’s life.
Am glad to hear someone talk about this aging issue; I am married to a much older man and notice this problem with him but we talked about it and he was very receptive. I bought the lume acidified body wash and it has helped. When we age our hormones changes and so the body produces odd body odors that we never experienced before but there is liquid washes that can help. I do not recommend using soap bar it only amplify the issue.
Thank you for talking about this. I do smell different than I did when I was younger. For me, I smelt worst when I was younger lol I think now I've found what works for my body, and back then, I had no clue.
Tree hut scrubs are affordable and good. Naturium has a great line of body washes with a couple that have chemical exfoliant properties. Dove body scrubs, also affordable, have really fine and gentle body scrubs as well. Ulta make some nice ones too if they have not discontinued them. Enjoyed your video because odor changing as we age is a real thing and we have to stay informed and change our hygiene routines accordingly. Thanks for the info 💗
Thank you for bring this topic up. I use most of the products you have mentioned and I love them also. Thank you for talking about a sensitive subject that we all go thru. Be Blessed
Hey gorgeous! Omg another thing for me to worry about. LOL. I have a nose like a wolf. I think it's a curse cause I can smell any and everything. 😅 Thanks for sharing and big thumbs up!!❤❤❤❤
I can also suggest taking a bath in Epsom salts like shea butter and almond oil by Dr Teals and add a half cup of baking soda, I'm 60 and I notice my body feels soft and smooth and follow up with some good Shea butter for our dry skin, and dove body deodorant as you said ,it works....we have to take baths regularly to put the moisture back in our skins , because we're older. And I use perfume oils more along with whatever scent I'm spraying,they last all day and I'm always told I smell great. Trust as we age our skin changes, no matter what we do. Love this channel I ran across.❤❤❤❤I'll vote for you because my mom passed 2 years ago from cancer ❤❤❤❤

@@RUclipsBlueButterflies thank you so much you can also add peroxide as well as Himalayan sea salt as well they are detoxing additives too and for correct ph you can do a cup of apple cider vinegar on r a week but shower after yo not smell like vinegar 😔
Hey this is such a great topic! I love smelling good . I care for my 91yrs old grandmother, I use oil of olay bodywash, mint infused wipes for personal cleaning throughout the day and fabuloso lavender scent for her bedroom. No old folks smell in the home😂 But as for me, castor oil neutralizes any body odor that I may have. I also dry brush my skin a few times a week followed by a cold shower. I dont have a problem with odor but I live in Fl so 2 to 3x showers is a must😂
Going plant based, reducing / removing grains and eating mostly raw foods helped with my odor and hot flashes. It was noticeable in 3 weeks. Also exfoliating, using products that agree with your current body chemistry, moisturizing and also splurging on good quality products that are not over-the-counter and more natural that contains tea tree oil or eucalyptus.
Hi I just found your utube channel and you have great info so I subscribed I use lemon when I bathe or shower it helps keep smelling down Just put some on the washcloth Also vinegar is great it doesn't take much it helps also I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos 😊🎉
I remember my great grandmother had “ old people smell “, I noticed it one day on me.. I now use Lume body wash and deodorant. Also use Native, which is cheaper
A lot of older people are afraid of falling in the tub. They should use baby wipes after using the bathroom front and back. They should shower at least every other day instead of once or twice a week.
Thank you for making this video! This is a topic many will shy away from, but it’s an important conversation to have. Lume body deodorant works amazing for me days leading up to my cycle. The ladies here in the comments reminded me about chlorophyll and I will get back to incorporating that as well. I’m going to exfoliate more also.
I got a hysterectomy, and I am on progestrone. Let me tell you. I smell musty down there. I have to use vagasil spray, which works, but feels weird (not used to using spray down there). I feel embarrassed using public restrooms. I have to take 2 showers a day. The left side of my head sweats. I now I have to wash my hair once a week. No sew ins or braids for me. I am going to tell my doctor to take me off the progestrone.
Love this channel. I myself perspire in a way that I didnt previously and ask myself the same questions. I did come across Dr. Teals body scrub and loved it. I make sure that I lather 2 times, and with the second use my body scrub. I use a body oil on damp skin to match my fragrance for the day. apply my body cream w a bit more oil. I have started using Ammens powder. Then most days apply my body sprays or perfumes. This is working and again thanks for sharing.
NeeC! I have a video coming up on this! Female odor specifically! My mom is a 6 year breast cancer survivor ❤ I have those same 2 Dr. Teal’s in my bath basket by my tub
I really like organic black soap bars that I buy from beauty stores. Has such a nice fresh clean smell . Since it's organic I also wash my hair with it.
Things happen as we mature. The meds we take, alcohol, and natural hormonal changes, your body, hair, nail growth change. Our bodies internally and externally change as we mature. I have stress sweat so I bath daily that seems to take of the of the problem. I do use fragrance free products.
I have cared for older people in my life, and that smell is, in most instances, not a result of internal factors but instead external. Those external factors usually fall into two categories: incontinence issues and mobility issues. Incontinence issues in that those who are older are more likely to deal with either temporary or permanent incontinence as a result of medical issues. Unfortunately, incontinence supplies can be very expensive and are often not covered by insurance. Thus means that some older people will not change things as frequently as they should to avoid odors. Mobility issues in that often older people are attempting to age in place but do not have the accessibility features necessary to ensure that thus is possible without compromising their quality of life. Things that young people deal with and take for granted such as a traditional bath tub or having to use stairs to get to the laundry room can become prohibitive to older people who may have obvious or not so obvious mobility concerns. Add to that, people once they retire may not go out as much and therefore when coupled with the mobility issues that prevent regular laundering of clothing and daily bathing, may be more inclined to recycle clothing if it looks stainfree. All of the above creates the "old people" smell. In contrast, when adequate measures and assistance is in place, older people don't smell any different than anyone else. In fact scientific studies have shown that they actually smell milder than younger people because of the decrease in sex hormones. Great conversation though and it's good to start having more conversations about how to age gracefully and maintain one's quality of life. Many of the older generations did not have a plan for that so when they were confronted with the inevitable, they had no solutions.
I’ve never smelled this on anyone and I’m 56. My mom is 78, grandma is 103 and sister is 52 and neither my mom or sister have ever smelled it either. I haven’t smelled it on my sister mom or grandma and so now I’m concerned that I won’t even know I have it when I probably do. 😮
I'm mid-60s and eat a ton of produce, use an exfoliating glove, and moisturize with oil, and a light cream. No body odor for me. Never, had that problem. Maybe, it's the food that I eat and my creams.
I take chlorophyll daily and add peppermint oil to my water when going out. Fenugreek is also beneficial. I'm older, but I'm using everything I can to balance my hormones. 🙃 #SexySixties
Hi I'm glad I ran across your channel and I'm older I think I'm older than you but I started using the body scrubs they work so good and plus I use the native body wash the vanilla one is very good and you know what else I do I look at the young people and see what they going to Target and get it helps out a great deal too
IM FROM THE SOUTH AND WAS RAISED TAKING BATHS! IN FACT WE DIDNT EVEN HAVE A SHOWER. 😂 WHEN I MOVED TO CALIF., AS A TEEN, I NOTICED THAT MAJORITY OF MY FAM/FRIENDS TOOK SHOWERS. 😂😅 I TRIED AND I ALWAYS FELT THAT THE WATER WAS JUST "RUNNING ON/OFF MY BODY". SOO GLAD TO SEE/READ A FEW OF THESE LADIES MENTIONING...."TAKING A BATH AND SOAKING!" I JUST FEEL SOO MUCH CLEANER. THEN..I STAND AND RINSE/SHOWER ALL THE SOAP ETC OFF. UR INFO IS SOO APPRECIATED. JUST STUMBLED ACROSS IT WHILE AT WORK. THX
yes i have known about this. with some ladies it can happen underneath the breast with sweating you can get a odor. especially senior ladies and there is older people that can't take care of themselves properly.
Oh lord. It’s really hard being a lady . When I was pregnant w/my kids I would always ask my Dr. if “it” smells strange. My Dr. would always say no it smells just fine to them. But I would smell myself, not a fishy or outrageous stinky scent but just an unfamiliar scent that I didn’t like. And now I’m allegedly peri or “post” menopausal (idk blood test says I’m post but Chile idk lol) and I don’t want to smell any new scents doggit 😂. Bad enough I work in healthcare and I can smell the patients B/O sometimes when I get off.
Yes body odor comes with age because we don't detox the body you have to clean the inside of the body yes the extra poop 💩 that's sitting in the colon Just chilling and when we sweat the inside stank comes through the pores. You have to make different little health tonics what fruits and vegetables I usually blend ginger lemons limes apples carrots together with water strain it and I put it in the fridge and I drink on that every day until it's gone you can do that as often as you like but look up different things on how to detox the body
Good tips!! I need to try the body deodorants soon. I do have a priduct that I use that I like a lot is Dove Melanin Even Tone Body Wash. Its an exfoliating body vwash.
I'm 68 now and thought the same thing. After going thru menopause l noticed that l have a different smell. Even perfumes that l have used for years smell a bit different on me now. I am gonna try some of your suggestions. Thank you!
I have use Juke Box soaps which are more natural with less chemicals. Deodorant, Dove deodorant sprays and Gold Bond Spray On. But I must say I have to change perfumes (not eau de toilet) as they don't last as they did before.
That’s awesome that you do not get hot flashes! However, wether you bathed throughly or not if you wake up in a puddle of sweat & hair drench due to hot flashes you will smell sweaty. If you havent had hot fashes, you wouldnt understand. I also have a wolf nose. So that doesnt help! Tfw🥰
Odors come from bacteria that grow whether you wash or not, brush your teeth, etc. The removal from bathing is temporary. Many times you have to change what bathe with.
Idk ,I personsly feel tje old people smell is coming from within ,Like organs ,illnesses maybe untreated diseases ,inknown illnesses ,cancer ,ect ,alot of older people suffer.with constipation, which i feel is a issue.....But i have a guestion of topic no one seems to be able to answer ,what does it mean if you never grew underarm hair?is it common?
Now that I'm in my 60's I smell body is crazy I have to shower 🚿 twice everyday and sometimes 3times a day because some older people don't smell to go 😮
I have been intending to use chlorophyll. I didn't like the way you had to take the ones that I had. My mother was sure to tell me before she passed. She NEVER smelled! She told me one night when we were sitting together. She said, one night I was in the bed and I was sooo stink. I had to get out of that bed and wash! She said, when you get older, your body starts to stink. Then when my older cousin went blind (88), I stayed with her and took care of her. One night as we sat talking, she said Sarah (my mother) told me that when you get older, your body starts to stink. She said, she was telling the truth! I was lying in the bed one night and I had to get up and take a bath!😂😂😂😂. I told her that she warned me too 😂😂😂. Well, I'm experiencing it now! The excessive sweating 💦 was more than enough! My mother didn't experience menopause issues, so she had my cousin's wife to come visit and discuss it. It happened to her in Jamaica and she said the Island women told her, Oh, you're just melting, Child!😂😂😂. She had me hollering talking about her experience. It helped when I was standing in the bank line, looking like someone was pouring buckets of water over my head!😂😂😂😂. All the people in the line were just staring at me, in amazement. They seemed to be wonder if I was melting before their eyes.😂😂😂😂.
I was thrown into menopause by hysterectomy. I had no idea my body was going to get bad, until one day🙄....😳 OMFG!! I have started taking chlorophyll pills and using body deodorant body wash that has peppermint in it. It works wonders.
People that smell as they get older are usually someone who has adult diaper of some sort. Also, the type of food we eat if we were to continue to eat that type of food then yes, that can result in a bad body order overtime.
Thanks for your opinion. My mom was a nurse and I was told that it has everything to do with aging!! Some people wash properly as you state & still have a odor that didnt before. Body chemistry changes as we get older. Look it up. Tfw🥰
Age and hormones has plenty to do with it,especially menopausal hormones and not eating g properly, toxins come out through your skin, and you can smell it, especially when your older and your hormones slow down. Google it or ask your doctor. If you're not at pre,peri,or post menopausal then you probably haven't experienced this yet ,but hold tight age will tell it all 😉😍
61 YR OLD HERE! ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS TAKE A PROBIOTIC AND A DIGESTIVE ENZYME! DIGESTION SLOWS DOWN AND FOOD DOESNT BREAK DOWN AS EASILY AND CAN COME OUT IN THE SKIN CAUSING ODOR!
How'd you know im struggling with this condition? Im diabetic and take metformin which is necessary for my diabetes management. This medication has a fishy smell to it. Over the years i have noticed that pharmaceutical companies have made this medication less fishy smelling. I also take a statin drug that seems to make me sweat profusely. Ok so imagine a fishy smelling drug coming out of my pores in areas of high sweating. I also take insulin which has a medicine odor. When I wake up in the mornings under my arm pits stinks according to me so bad, almost like fishy or even like my cat's litter box 😷 the groan area too but not as bad as under the arms. Im 5 years post menaupasal but still have underarm hair. I know that hair traps odor but I was always too busy to shave during my bathing time because of work. Im always aware that if I can smell myself, others can too!! Also when I take a beer, just one, I smell like an alcoholic! It's almost like my pores are completely open now that my body is transitioning into older age. I always thought as we aged our sense of smell diminishes. But it's good to know that one can still smell themselves. I think the worst thing to do for an older woman is to continue to wear the cologne or perfume that she liked when she was younger. Our metabolic system has changed so our body chemistry also has changed and can collide with the same scents that we used to be able to wear in our youth. That mixture is called funky!
Well I noticed not having sex the vag smells better like being 10 again lol. But I was sweating more was not use to that. So 72 is ok aches and pains sometimes but it's a nice trade. But younger women not ready for that lol.
Save yoyr money on the jar scrubs and buy exfoliating towels instead!😊 I'd like to say however, there's a whole industry out there trying to convince us that we stink because they have lots of expensive products to sell us. If you are going to try things on your whole body, I am going to try in a few places on my body a deodorant that I used that does not have aluminum and they are far less cheaper than the ones that are being sold as whole body try Arm & Hammer Essentials they are aluminum-free, paraffin and phthalates! You can also use a half a slice of lime rub it in the places where you are most offended by your own body odor, leave it there for 5 minutes and then shower off. You will smell the difference, just ask the West Indians if you don't spend money on plastic surgeries of any type they will get your money through trying to make you feel like you are stinky!

Also exfoliating, using products that agree with your current body chemistry, moisturizing and also splurging on good quality products that are not over-the-counter and more natural that contains tea tree oil or eucalyptus.
Thats good to know! I do agree with eating healthier helps a lot! appreciate you watching!🥰
Yes in menopause now. Hot flashes out of control.
Girlllll, you aint lyin!! Lol tfw🥰
Hi I just found your utube channel and you have great info so I subscribed I use lemon when I bathe or shower it helps keep smelling down Just put some on the washcloth Also vinegar is great it doesn't take much it helps also I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos 😊🎉
Thank you so much! I appreciate you commenting & watching! 🥰
Yes I’ve noticed it one arm gets musty and under my breast and other places I have hot flashes while sleeping thanks for this info
You are most welcome! I appreciate you watching🥰
I remember my great grandmother had “ old people smell “, I noticed it one day on me.. I now use Lume body wash and deodorant. Also use Native, which is cheaper
I will have to try that Native! I hear it is good! Tfw🥰
A lot of older people are afraid of falling in the tub. They should use baby wipes after using the bathroom front and back. They should shower at least every other day instead of once or twice a week.
I appreciate your comment. Thanks for watching!🥰
Thank you for making this video! This is a topic many will shy away from, but it’s an important conversation to have. Lume body deodorant works amazing for me days leading up to my cycle. The ladies here in the comments reminded me about chlorophyll and I will get back to incorporating that as well. I’m going to exfoliate more also.
You are most welcome! I think it is very important as well! I appreciate you watching🥰
I got a hysterectomy, and I am on progestrone. Let me tell you. I smell musty down there. I have to use vagasil spray, which works, but feels weird (not used to using spray down there). I feel embarrassed using public restrooms. I have to take 2 showers a day. The left side of my head sweats. I now I have to wash my hair once a week. No sew ins or braids for me. I am going to tell my doctor to take me off the progestrone.
These tips are the tea! Thanks so much for this video. You are very much appreciated !!!
You ate most welcome!! Tfw🥰
New subbie here! Love that you talked about this 👍I won't get nervous when I experience a change as I'm getting older.
Welcome to the NeeCJae Family!! I really appreciate you watching!🥰
I’m 51 and I’m always musty. Never had the problem before. I use lume.
Love this channel. I myself perspire in a way that I didnt previously and ask myself the same questions. I did come across Dr. Teals body scrub and loved it. I make sure that I lather 2 times, and with the second use my body scrub. I use a body oil on damp skin to match my fragrance for the day. apply my body cream w a bit more oil. I have started using Ammens powder. Then most days apply my body sprays or perfumes. This is working and again thanks for sharing.
Oh I love your routine!! The things women have to go through! Yes, I use body oils too. Thanks for sharing your routine with us!!🥰
New subscriber from Chicago TFS. Im 63 and hope i don't get old folks smell. I don't remember my mom or grandma having odor 😮
Welcome to the NeeCJae family! My mom is 76 & she does not have a old person smell either! Tfw🥰
NeeC! I have a video coming up on this! Female odor specifically! My mom is a 6 year breast cancer survivor ❤ I have those same 2 Dr. Teal’s in my bath basket by my tub
Hey Moma! Congrats to your mom!! Great minds think alike!! Thanks for watching!!🥰
Aging odor is caused by 2-nonenal. Persimmon soap is one of the kinds of cleansers that breaks it up and gets rid of it.
Thats good to know! Tfw🥰
Lume is your Friend trust me I was unsure until I decided to give it a try!!! Changed my life ❤
Yess, my mom & I love it! I appreciate you watching!🥰
Lume is 🔥🔥🔥❤️
i think i smell milder, but I also think i smell "vitaminy" because I take vitamins, but I drink a lot of water too
I take a lot of vitamins too! Thats great! I think water is the key!! Tfw🥰
I know what you mean, to me it’s medicine like smell

i'm adding chloryphil drops to my daily regimen.
Interesting! Thank you for talking about life! 😊
You are most welcome! I appreciate you watching! 🥰
I really like organic black soap bars that I buy from beauty stores. Has such a nice fresh clean smell . Since it's organic I also wash my hair with it.
Things happen as we mature. The meds we take, alcohol, and natural hormonal changes, your body, hair, nail growth change. Our bodies internally and externally change as we mature. I have stress sweat so I bath daily that seems to take of the of the problem. I do use fragrance free products.
I totally agree! Thanks for your comment! Tfw🥰
I have cared for older people in my life, and that smell is, in most instances, not a result of internal factors but instead external. Those external factors usually fall into two categories: incontinence issues and mobility issues.
Incontinence issues in that those who are older are more likely to deal with either temporary or permanent incontinence as a result of medical issues. Unfortunately, incontinence supplies can be very expensive and are often not covered by insurance. Thus means that some older people will not change things as frequently as they should to avoid odors.
Mobility issues in that often older people are attempting to age in place but do not have the accessibility features necessary to ensure that thus is possible without compromising their quality of life. Things that young people deal with and take for granted such as a traditional bath tub or having to use stairs to get to the laundry room can become prohibitive to older people who may have obvious or not so obvious mobility concerns. Add to that, people once they retire may not go out as much and therefore when coupled with the mobility issues that prevent regular laundering of clothing and daily bathing, may be more inclined to recycle clothing if it looks stainfree.
All of the above creates the "old people" smell.
In contrast, when adequate measures and assistance is in place, older people don't smell any different than anyone else. In fact scientific studies have shown that they actually smell milder than younger people because of the decrease in sex hormones.
Great conversation though and it's good to start having more conversations about how to age gracefully and maintain one's quality of life. Many of the older generations did not have a plan for that so when they were confronted with the inevitable, they had no solutions.
Thanks so much for your comment! Much appreciated! Thanks for watching!🥰
Exfoliating shower gloves. They're available at Walmart, Target, and almost any store that sells such items.
I like those too! Thanks for watching🥰
I’ve never smelled this on anyone and I’m 56. My mom is 78, grandma is 103 and sister is 52 and neither my mom or sister have ever smelled it either. I haven’t smelled it on my sister mom or grandma and so now I’m concerned that I won’t even know I have it when I probably do. 😮
Hey sweetie! No, I never said that older people have a smell, just your body chemistry changes as we age. Thanks for your comment & watching!🥰
I'm mid-60s and eat a ton of produce, use an exfoliating glove, and moisturize with oil, and a light cream. No body odor for me. Never, had that problem. Maybe, it's the food that I eat and my creams.
That’s awesome!! Thanks for commenting! I appreciate you watching.🥰
I take chlorophyll daily and add peppermint oil to my water when going out. Fenugreek is also beneficial. I'm older, but I'm using everything I can to balance my hormones. 🙃 #SexySixties
I hear ya!! Thanks for sharing!! I appreciate you watching🥰
Hi I'm glad I ran across your channel and I'm older I think I'm older than you but I started using the body scrubs they work so good and plus I use the native body wash the vanilla one is very good and you know what else I do I look at the young people and see what they going to Target and get it helps out a great deal too
I’m glad you ran across my channel too!😀 Thanks for commenting & watching!🥰
@@NeeCJae you are going welcome 💕🌷💕🌷💕🌷💕
IM FROM THE SOUTH AND WAS RAISED TAKING BATHS! IN FACT WE DIDNT EVEN HAVE A SHOWER. 😂 WHEN I MOVED TO CALIF., AS A TEEN, I NOTICED THAT MAJORITY OF MY FAM/FRIENDS TOOK SHOWERS. 😂😅 I TRIED AND I ALWAYS FELT THAT THE WATER WAS JUST "RUNNING ON/OFF MY BODY". SOO GLAD TO SEE/READ A FEW OF THESE LADIES MENTIONING...."TAKING A BATH AND SOAKING!" I JUST FEEL SOO MUCH CLEANER. THEN..I STAND AND RINSE/SHOWER ALL THE SOAP ETC OFF. UR INFO IS SOO APPRECIATED. JUST STUMBLED ACROSS IT WHILE AT WORK. THX
Thanks so much for you comment & for watching!🥰
yes i have known about this. with some ladies it can happen underneath the breast with sweating you can get a odor. especially senior ladies and there is older people that can't take care of themselves properly.
I did not know! Glad I do now! Tfw🥰
Oh lord. It’s really hard being a lady . When I was pregnant w/my kids I would always ask my Dr. if “it” smells strange. My Dr. would always say no it smells just fine to them. But I would smell myself, not a fishy or outrageous stinky scent but just an unfamiliar scent that I didn’t like. And now I’m allegedly peri or “post” menopausal (idk blood test says I’m post but Chile idk lol) and I don’t want to smell any new scents doggit 😂. Bad enough I work in healthcare and I can smell the patients B/O sometimes when I get off.
Yes honey! It is very had being a women! I understand. Thanks for watching🥰
Omgosh, that pregnant woman body order is 🤮🤢😷 nobody else can smell you but you lol ,it's the worst ,Dr's said it was hormonal change lol
Yes body odor comes with age because we don't detox the body you have to clean the inside of the body yes the extra poop 💩 that's sitting in the colon Just chilling and when we sweat the inside stank comes through the pores. You have to make different little health tonics what fruits and vegetables I usually blend ginger lemons limes apples carrots together with water strain it and I put it in the fridge and I drink on that every day until it's gone you can do that as often as you like but look up different things on how to detox the body
This Is the Best remedy/Answer.
I believe that! I try to detox my body at least once or twice a month. Thanks for watching & sharing🥰
I’m on the Fab over 40 . So many people are.
Oh wow! Good Luck🥰
Good tips!! I need to try the body deodorants soon. I do have a priduct that I use that I like a lot is Dove Melanin Even Tone Body Wash. Its an exfoliating body vwash.
Thank you! I’m going to look into getting that body wash! 🥰tfw
I'm 68 now and thought the same thing. After going thru menopause l noticed that l have a different smell. Even perfumes that l have used for years smell a bit different on me now. I am gonna try some of your suggestions. Thank you!
You are right! Come to think of it, some of my perfumes smell different on me now as well. Thanks for your comment! I appreciate you watching!🥰
@NeeCJae new subscriber too 😃
A lot of times older people don't drink enough water to flush out impurities in the body....
I believe that! Thanks for your comment! I appreciate you watching.🥰
Thank you for sharing this information 🙏🏾
You are most welcome! Tfw🥰
I have use Juke Box soaps which are more natural with less chemicals. Deodorant, Dove deodorant sprays and Gold Bond Spray On. But I must say I have to change perfumes (not eau de toilet) as they don't last as they did before.
Yes, they are not like they use to be! Tfw🥰
Hello, i use body scrub, and i also use an exfoliate sponge 😊
@@SuziJackson-ld6hv thanks so much!! I have to get another exfloiating sponge! Tfw🥰
Bathing/soaking in baking soda helps too.
Thanks for commenting! Thanks so watching! 🥰
I have heard it and yes I have noticed it at night because I get night sweats. 💋
The night sweats are horrible!! Tfw🥰
I never get hot flashes. I don't smell at all. If your hygiene is good , keep everything clean you will never smell bad.
That’s awesome that you do not get hot flashes! However, wether you bathed throughly or not if you wake up in a puddle of sweat & hair drench due to hot flashes you will smell sweaty. If you havent had hot fashes, you wouldnt understand.
I also have a wolf nose. So that doesnt help! Tfw🥰
Odors come from bacteria that grow whether you wash or not, brush your teeth, etc. The removal from bathing is temporary. Many times you have to change what bathe with.
@@rsmith1820 I agree with that! Thanks for sharing🥰
Yep. 51, and i notice at about 50.
The things women have to deal with! Tfw🥰
Idk ,I personsly feel tje old people smell is coming from within ,Like organs ,illnesses maybe untreated diseases ,inknown illnesses ,cancer ,ect ,alot of older people suffer.with constipation, which i feel is a issue.....But i have a guestion of topic no one seems to be able to answer ,what does it mean if you never grew underarm hair?is it common?
Thanks for your commenting! I appreciate you watching🥰
Now that I'm in my 60's I smell body is crazy I have to shower 🚿 twice everyday and sometimes 3times a day because some older people don't smell to go 😮
Thanks so much for sharing!! I appreciate you watching!🥰
Body odor around people especially when they're homeless
True! Tfw
I think it’s when they don’t bathe and I understand it’s harder for them. My grandmother always smelled good, she would take a bath every day.
My grandmothet and my mom does! She always smell so good. Thanks so much for watching!!🥰
I have been intending to use chlorophyll. I didn't like the way you had to take the ones that I had. My mother was sure to tell me before she passed. She NEVER smelled! She told me one night when we were sitting together. She said, one night I was in the bed and I was sooo stink. I had to get out of that bed and wash! She said, when you get older, your body starts to stink. Then when my older cousin went blind (88), I stayed with her and took care of her. One night as we sat talking, she said Sarah (my mother) told me that when you get older, your body starts to stink. She said, she was telling the truth! I was lying in the bed one night and I had to get up and take a bath!😂😂😂😂. I told her that she warned me too 😂😂😂. Well, I'm experiencing it now! The excessive sweating 💦 was more than enough! My mother didn't experience menopause issues, so she had my cousin's wife to come visit and discuss it. It happened to her in Jamaica and she said the Island women told her, Oh, you're just melting, Child!😂😂😂. She had me hollering talking about her experience. It helped when I was standing in the bank line, looking like someone was pouring buckets of water over my head!😂😂😂😂. All the people in the line were just staring at me, in amazement. They seemed to be wonder if I was melting before their eyes.😂😂😂😂.
I always thought some old people had a scent. I say they smell like old people.😊
🥰 Me too! Tfw
I was thrown into menopause by hysterectomy. I had no idea my body was going to get bad, until one day🙄....😳 OMFG!! I have started taking chlorophyll pills and using body deodorant body wash that has peppermint in it. It works wonders.
Yes, honey!! The things we go through!! Thanks for watching!🥰
Thank you for sharing St Ives have that two in one body scrub you might want to try that
Thank you! I appreciate you watching! 🥰
People that smell as they get older are usually someone who has adult diaper of some sort. Also, the type of food we eat if we were to continue to eat that type of food then yes, that can result in a bad body order overtime.
I totally agree! I appreciate your comment! Tfw🥰
I am not sure about that some times older people get lazy about keeping their body clean I do not have a order because I bathe.
Hmmm, I never said any of that🤔. I do not either. Thanks for commenting tho.
Thank you. Everything you said is very familiar.
You are most welcome! I appreciate you watching!!🥰
mirai clinical has a good persimmon soap and/or body wash that's good for cleansing the skin. Naturium in Target has a good line as well.
Great talk.
Gurl it's real:(

Really appreciate this content for seasoned women, post mena. Pardon the pun.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate you watching!🥰
Can you pls do all ur lippies-sticks-gloss etc-names-brands pls?
Great idea! I sure will! I will add them in my favorite video! Tfw🥰
It has nothing to do with age. You have to wash properly,and some people don't do that.
Thanks for your opinion. My mom was a nurse and I was told that it has everything to do with aging!! Some people wash properly as you state & still have a odor that didnt before. Body chemistry changes as we get older. Look it up. Tfw🥰
Age and hormones has plenty to do with it,especially menopausal hormones and not eating g properly, toxins come out through your skin, and you can smell it, especially when your older and your hormones slow down. Google it or ask your doctor. If you're not at pre,peri,or post menopausal then you probably haven't experienced this yet ,but hold tight age will tell it all 😉😍
61 YR OLD HERE! ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS TAKE A PROBIOTIC AND A DIGESTIVE ENZYME! DIGESTION SLOWS DOWN AND FOOD DOESNT BREAK DOWN AS EASILY AND CAN COME OUT IN THE SKIN CAUSING ODOR!
And you can be at ease around men because it is scientific fact that their olfactory system is nowhere near as Keen as ours😊
Thats good to know! Tfw🥰
How'd you know im struggling with this condition? Im diabetic and take metformin which is necessary for my diabetes management. This medication has a fishy smell to it. Over the years i have noticed that pharmaceutical companies have made this medication less fishy smelling. I also take a statin drug that seems to make me sweat profusely. Ok so imagine a fishy smelling drug coming out of my pores in areas of high sweating. I also take insulin which has a medicine odor. When I wake up in the mornings under my arm pits stinks according to me so bad, almost like fishy or even like my cat's litter box 😷 the groan area too but not as bad as under the arms. Im 5 years post menaupasal but still have underarm hair. I know that hair traps odor but I was always too busy to shave during my bathing time because of work. Im always aware that if I can smell myself, others can too!! Also when I take a beer, just one, I smell like an alcoholic! It's almost like my pores are completely open now that my body is transitioning into older age. I always thought as we aged our sense of smell diminishes. But it's good to know that one can still smell themselves. I think the worst thing to do for an older woman is to continue to wear the cologne or perfume that she liked when she was younger. Our metabolic system has changed so our body chemistry also has changed and can collide with the same scents that we used to be able to wear in our youth. That mixture is called funky!

Hello 💕💕🙏🏾🙏🏾
🥰❤️
Well I noticed not having sex the vag smells better like being 10 again lol. But I was sweating more was not use to that. So 72 is ok aches and pains sometimes but it's a nice trade. But younger women not ready for that lol.
No, not ready for no sex yet. My hubby would have a fit! Lol🤣🤣Tfw & commenting!
Yes! That is why I shower at least every other day.
You don’t shower daily?
I’ve heard that as I’ve been showing every day! Thanks for sharing and watching🥰
The body deo irritated my skin.
Omg, really! Even the Lume?
Yes I can't stand it
I appreciate you watching! 🥰
Save yoyr money on the jar scrubs and buy exfoliating towels instead!😊 I'd like to say however, there's a whole industry out there trying to convince us that we stink because they have lots of expensive products to sell us. If you are going to try things on your whole body, I am going to try in a few places on my body a deodorant that I used that does not have aluminum and they are far less cheaper than the ones that are being sold as whole body try Arm & Hammer Essentials they are aluminum-free, paraffin and phthalates! You can also use a half a slice of lime rub it in the places where you are most offended by your own body odor, leave it there for 5 minutes and then shower off. You will smell the difference, just ask the West Indians if you don't spend money on plastic surgeries of any type they will get your money through trying to make you feel like you are stinky!
Great info! Thanks for commenting & watching!🥰
