Do I Smell Like Onion?

So I've been slicing up an onion and swiping it on my face a few times daily for the past month. It seems to be working as I read that the sulfuric acid in the onion is anti-bacterial and onions are anti-inflammatory.

 

I can't smell the onion after putting it on my face but I'm afraid I may be desensitized to the smell. Just wondering if other people can smell the onion? Any one know?

When I used ACV a number of people told me I smelt of vinegar, and I was diluting it. There's a good chance that you may smell like onion but it's probably best to ask someone who can actually smell you.

 

 

I hope someone hurries up and invents virtual smells, that would be cool.

Indeed.

Also, just curious, did you grow immune to the tear-jerk properties of onions?

I've never personally used them on my face so I don't have much experience; however my sister is a trained chef and I know she can make a year's worth of onion soup without shedding a tear. So I do believe there is immunity to be found!

I still get tears after the slice. Red onions give me more tears.
