UV germ zapper to remove armpit bacteria

Armpit is really the best place for pheromone application as it is one of the warmest parts of human body and a natural location for pheromone production and dispersion. The only problem is conversion and breakdown caused by bacteria.

I think germ killers like Purell might be good to use there if not for its chemical smell and the fact that it has high absorption risk.

Now these UV germ zappers are becoming really popular. Its the gadget they use in hospitals to sterilize equipments and now it is available for personal use at low cost and has been proven to kill 99.9% of germs.

Looks good to me but I wonder if it is effective against the strains of bacteria found in armpit..specially the corynebacterium strains..most responsible for the pheromone conversion and smell.

I plan to purchase it soon and give it a try. Anyone else game for it?

I’ll stick with my deodorant on my armpits.. I wouldn’t want to mix pheromones with the deodorant or even with my body odor..might be unpleasant.. :roll_eyes:

Might be useful for “sour crotch” as well. Hopefully won’t make you sterile…

I’m not sure that I would want to blast my skin with a UV light on a regular basis.

especially if your a vampire like me! hahahaha :stuck_out_tongue:

The pheromone application sounds really interesting at that place…
but for at least 6 month i am not allowed to apply anything under my armpits(after the surgery ).
btw i dont know what they did to me.. but i am not sweating anymore at this place and i am not so sure this is a good thing… :confused:

so back on topic … nbully79 thats a really a great idea .. but is this UV light skin friendly?
Some instant Gentleman will go really well at that spot for buffering…
really nice idea nbully79 :wink:

as pasty white as I am, a UV light will just make me sunburned in 2-3 minutes.

I think you can get a similar effect going to a tanning bed a couple days a week.

sunburns on feet or scalp are bad enough I can’t start to imagine one in more tinder area’s such as armpits or crotch. :open_mouth:

Now that is something my OCD neighbor could use on her door knobs, (after watching her wash her door knobs and car door handles 3 times with germ wipes after someone else used them…)

Same here, woofie! I received no benefit from being half hispanic. I’m as white as they come.

I am skeptical as well, but can this be harmful at 10 sec dose? It says 10-15 sec is all you need.

Well I am looking at other methods to kill the armpit bacteria without having to use alcohol, like ozonized water (Healthy Home - Replace Chemical Cleaners and Naturally Sanitize with lotus Sanitizing System) or water infused with silver ions (The Silver Institute-Silver News), both of which are also receiving rave reviews.

@nbully79

I would be really cautious about using that device on your skin - the manufacturers explicitly warn against it, since what you’re doing is giving
yourself a super-dose of UVA,-B,-C, which have been proven to cause skin cancer. I’d suggest sticking with something like Perspirex if you want to minimize the armpit odour - but see Idle’s post on potential problems even with those.

remember the UV rays from the sun are the same as this light produces. These UV rays are the same that are shown to cause skin cancer.

using a UV light to much can cause you problems later.

Thank you guys for the warning! It seems like risks are too high with this.

Now regarding people who want to use anti-perspirants but don’t want to use aluminum based ones have you tried Adidas’ cotton technology based anti-perspirant. Most people love it plus its safe.

also remember you may kill the bacteria on the surface, but each pore is pretty deep and most bacterial live down inside the pores.
they have lived there since before your birth, so they will always be there, it is your flora.

I will have to check out that Adidas stuff.
I have been using just deodorant to get away from the alumoxide.
