How to Get Rid of Smell Between Breasts

The Women’s Guide to Care and Maintenance of Yourself doesn’t include a chapter on how to get rid of smell between breasts. This unfortunately all-too-common problem among large-breasted lassies has been described as metallic or vinegary. Some women say it smells like sour milk, which probably makes sense to any woman who has ever had a baby. No matter how you describe the aroma, we can all agree that breasts are not supposed to smell bad.

 

Having larger breasts means the girls are more than likely less perky than a woman who has a smaller chest. As a result, the body creates a natural landing strip on your chest where bacteria can gather and grow, creating the perfect place for stankiness to originate. The reason not all breast funk smells the same is that every person’s body chemistry is slightly different. In some cases, it has more of a musty quality but in others, the effect is more like you’ve been slapped across the face by fetidness.

 

 

How to Get Rid of Smell Between Breasts

1 Let Your Girls Breathe

If you have the chance to go without a bra, do it. Letting the air get at your skin can help to dissipate the odor in some cases. This is an easy, no-cost option to try, and you can always check out one of the other suggestions on the list if it doesn’t work for you.

 

2 All Natural Lemon Solution

Get a lemon and cut it in half. Rub it all over the areas between and under your breasts where you notice the funky smell. The lemon will cut through the smell within a minute or two. Problem solved.

 

3 Apply Summer’s Eve Powder

Apply Summer’s Eve Powder to the affected area to keep it dry. Making this part of your regular post-shower routine will help to make sure the smell problem doesn’t come back once you have it dealt with. Shake a small amount of the powder into your hand and apply it between the breasts. Don’t forget the undercarriage; this is also a place where sweat tends to build up and can definitely lead to some major stinkiness if left unchecked.

 

Stamp Out Breast Smell from Yeast or Fungal Infection

1 Grapefruit Seed Extract and Water Solution

If you suspect the problem is due to a yeast infection on your skin, mix up a solution of Grapefruit Seed Extract and water. Rinse the affected area a couple of times per day. Continue to do so for at least a week after the problem clears up. This product is available at health food stores.

 

2 Go for Antifungal Cream

An anti-fungal cream, like the kind used to treat athlete’s foot, can be used on other parts of the body. Read the instructions and apply a small amount to the affected area. If the odor does not stop or gets worse, you will need to see a doctor.

 

3 Vagisil it Away

Another solution for dealing with the problem how to get rid of smell between breasts is to grab a tube of Vagisil and apply the product to your skin. It should be non-irritating, and you will be able to determine rather quickly if this solution will work for you. A doctor or pharmacist can answer specific questions about how long it may take to work.

 

Get Rid of Breast Smell Coming from Your Bra

1 Keep Your Cup Holders Immaculate

Many women are hesitant about washing a bra in the machine too often because it will damage the elastic and will wear the same one for a few days as a result. If you are noticing an aroma coming from your girls, it may be accumulated sweat that is getting trapped in your bra. If the fabric is a synthetic, it doesn’t breathe, and just sits there. Wash your bra by hand in using a mild soap and water solution and hang it to dry. This can help preserve the elastic and give you a clue whether the smell is the fabric or coming from a skin condition.

 

2 Baby Wipes and Deodorant Solution

Tuck a travel pack of baby wipes into your bag and use it to freshen up the underside of your breasts and your bra band during the day. In the warmer months, some women can actually feel a bit damp in this area, and it may be helpful to apply some deodorant under the breast fold as part of their morning routine. If you are considering this option, the best choice would be one that goes on “dry” and does not make the skin feel sticky.

 

3 Baby Powder or Cornstarch Your Cups

Shake a little baby powder or corn starch into the cups of the bra before putting it on. You will probably find that corn starch is the less messy choice; baby powder tends to create a cloud if you aren’t careful when you apply it. Both products will absorb moisture as you go about your day and should help to keep the sweat and resulting smell down in your breast area.
