Why are you sniffing your little sisters USED q-tip, number one?
And tell her to try washing her belly button with a good antibacterial soap, that should do the trick. She probably isn't getting in there good enough.

Other than the fact that she probably forgets to wash that area when she bathes, no. Different parts of our bodies have different smells when they aren't clean. She doesn't need a qtip either; a washcloth with soap will do just fine.

Tell her to stop putting cheese in her navel. Really, there are times our navels will stink. To avoid it, always clean the navel on a daily basis. Especially after sports, exercise and very hot days.

Nothin wrong here, just maybe a bit hard to clean as it is small. She will simply need to attend to it more frequently in showers and baths!

The only things wrong are she needs to clean it more often and she has a sister dumb enough to sniff her q-tip when she does clean it.

Good question...I've never had that problem. I don't believe so. Interesting that you would smell the q-tip, but I guess that is the human curiosity.

Umm...eeew...
Tell your sister to wash her belly button every day! Or, use it as snack bowl and dip celery in it...
I love cheese and celery!

no. Dark, moist place. Stuff sits in there and kind of ferments. If you clean in the shower every day, it stays clean..
