Skilled hands teach you to remove the odor of yoga mats
When practicing yoga, I often have such a small worry. The yoga mat I just purchased always gives off a peculiar smell, which makes me unable to concentrate when practicing. Even if I barely hold on for an hour or two, I will be dizzy by the peculiar smell. Did I waste my time practicing in vain? There's nothing we can do about the smell? No, here is a tip to get rid of the annoying yoga mat odor.
The way to get rid of the smell is actually very simple:
First, open the outer packaging;
Then, wipe with a soft rag dipped in warm water;
After that, place it in a cool and ventilated place for one to two days to remove the residual plastic smell on the mat.
It is recommended that yoga practitioners choose imported yoga mats. Yoga mat products come into direct contact with the body and skin of the practitioner, and are themselves chemicals. Please be careful not to use yoga mat products without quality assurance, so as not to cause damage to your skin that you take care of. The environmentally friendly, non-toxic and odorless TPE yoga mat has a very small smell when first opened. It will be completely odorless when placed flat in a ventilated place for 1-2 days. Toxic and smelly mats do not have the most critical technology of non-toxic and odorless, and have not undergone non-toxic and odorless treatment. When they are first opened, the smell is extremely strong and smokes the eyes. After being scrubbed with water for a long time or placed in a dry place for about 20 days. The smell will be smaller, but the uncomfortable smell will always be present. Please pay attention to identification.
In fact, no matter how expensive the mat is, it will definitely smell like the material because it is sealed when it leaves the factory. Please don't mistake it for a flavored mat to be of poor quality. As long as it has no peculiar smell after the above treatment, it is safe and non-toxic, and you can use it with confidence.
