I'm a stinky girl, my 25p hack will keep you smelling fresh all summer long even on the sweatiest of days
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) SOMETIME no matter how much deodorant and perfume you put on, the summer heat can leave you feeling sweaty and stinky. But thanks to a budget-friendly hack, you can stay as fresh as ever in the hot weather. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 TikTok user Laura Valentina showed her followers the DIY hack she uses to smell fresh all summer long Credit: TikTok/@laauravalentina TikTok user Laura Valentina (@laauravalentina) showed her followers the DIY technique she swears by that leaves her smelling and feeling refreshed in the heat. And for anyone pinching pennies, don't worry because all you need is two kitchen ingredients. "I live by this life hack," Laura told her followers before going on to describe herself as a "stinky girl". She revealed that her mum taught her to use two household items to combat the summer sweats. These secret ingredients are lime and baking soda, neither of which will break the bank. You can pick up a lime for just 24p from Sainsbury's, while baking soda will set you back 59p. And since you only need a miniscule amount of baking soda, this hack will only total around 25p each time you try it out. In the clip, which amassed 1.2 million views, Laura began by slicing her lime in half and dipping it in baking soda. She waited for it to start sizzling, showing her audience the bubbles that formed. The TikToker described the hack as "the best and better than any soap you will ever find". £2K Celeb Laser Facial Had Me Smelling Like Bacon She advised her followers to use it "to get rid of any stink", revealing that she rubs it on her armpits and "everywhere else". According to Laura, this process helps to "get rid of any stench" but also has other beauty benefits. "It also exfoliates with the little grains of baking soda and for all of my stink girls, it will really help you get rid of that stink," she explained. Laura pointed out that it not only eliminates smells but also leaves you smelling like citrus afterwards. Her followers shared their thoughts on the natural hack in the comments section. Top beauty trends for 2025 Hayley Walker, Beauty Expert at Justmylook spoke exclusively to Fabulous about the big beauty trends for 2025. Haircare Hair gloss treatments are a must-have as beauty enthusiasts love the salon-quality shine and enhanced colour delivered by the trending treatment. Hair glosses are multifunctional, as they nourish the hair while offering a vibrant, healthy-looking finish, combining 2025's core trends. This treatment is perfect for those seeking an affordable, at-home glow-up. 2025 will focus on skin repairing and texture-enhancing treatments. Skincare Rejuran treatment, a celebrity-endorsed procedure, will see a rise in demand this year as many seek to enhance their skin's appearance. The procedure entails injecting polynucleotides derived from salmon DNA to enhance skin texture and elasticity. 'Rejuvenation is expected to dominate 2025 skincare trends as many seek to achieve a flawless, youthful complexion. Skincare will also include back-to-basic products for a simplified routine. Ginseng cleansing oil and panthenol cream are among the trending products for 2025. The cleansing oil is excellent for dissolving make-up and impurities without clogging pores and is enriched with nourishing properties to leave the skin feeling and looking refreshed and radiant. Make-up Make-up trends will follow suit to achieve youthful and radiant looks. Under-eye brighteners will be sought-after products for delivering coverage while enhancing natural radiance. This beauty tool will complement natural beauty while improving and brightening dull skin. Make-up looks will be bigger and bolder in 2025 with cluster lashes expected to surge this year. These lashes bring the glam to glamorous looks as they deliver dramatic volume to enhance everyday or special occasion looks. Peel-off lip stains circulated the beauty industry in 2024 and are expected to dominate in 2025. The growing popularity of this product is due to its ability to provide long-lasting, transfer-proof colour to lips, enhancing a natural aesthetic. Additionally, cherry-coded aesthetics are expected to be everywhere this year as the deep, rich hue can be achieved using peel-off lip stains or bold lip looks for a dramatic effect. Nails 2025 will be another year of countless, show-stopping nail trends. Goddess Nails and Aura Nails deserve an honourable mention as these designs channel an ethereal, celestial aesthetic for bold, self-expressing nails. "It also helps to lighten your underarms," pointed out another fan of the trick. "I use key limes and it has officially replaced my deodorant," said another viewer. "The smell is from the bacteria. The lime and baking soda is a great for killing the bacteria and neutralizing the pH," commented a third person. Another TikTok user said they "definitely will use" the homemade hack. "OMG, I've been doing this since [childhood] and I don't have dark spots under my armpits as well," shared another follower.
