The bacteria that cause musty odors proliferate after 5 hours of washing. When drying indoors, use a fan or circulator, and wear quick-drying clothes and innerwear for everyday use, to dry laundry as quickly as possible.
Choose innerwear in colors that are less likely to show through, such as mocha shades slightly darker than your skin tone, or terracotta and bordeaux shades that are close to your natural complexion. Also, innerwear with a smooth design without seams or lace will prevent underwear lines from showing.
Wear sweat-absorbing and quick-drying innerwear to take precautions against sticky skin from sweat and humidity. While comfortable 100% cotton clothing and innerwear have the disadvantage of drying slowly after absorbing sweat, it's recommended to take a break from them during the rainy season!
On humid days, heavier hair balms and waxes are recommended over light hair oils. If you have long hair, updos are also a good option.
Soak in lukewarm water (38-40 degrees Celsius) for about 10-15 minutes to reset your autonomic nervous system!
Cross Mesh Non-wired Bra
The mesh tape reduces bothersome stuffiness. The cup lining is sweat-absorbing and quick-drying, keeping your skin smooth even when you sweat. With smooth molded cups, this is a must-have item for the rainy season, as underwear lines are less likely to show through even when wearing thin T-shirts.
Refresh Cooler / Beauty Type
This innerwear is perfect for summer, combining a "contact cool sensation" feature that feels pleasantly cool the moment it touches your skin with quick-drying properties. The entire mesh material provides a refreshing coolness as if wind is passing through. Furthermore, it "dries quickly when hung indoors" during laundry, making the rainy season's laundry rotation comfortable!
