    The Chemistry of Hygiene: Sweat, Skin & the Science of Smelling Good
    31 Oct 2026

    Your sweat isn't the villain. Your bacteria simply have a talent for chemistry.

    In this episode of Underarm Confessions, we unravel the fascinating science behind body odour, shower routines, skin pH, and the art of curating your personal smellscape. From Staphylococcus hominis and the vaginal microbiome to chlorophyll, probiotics, and traditional African hygiene remedies, we're exploring what cleanliness really means.

    We also discuss why Unbridled is embracing pH-optimised syndet technology and reimagining hygiene manufacturing in Africa.
