How can I face my coworkers again after my manager informed me I smell bad?

​

I am doing an internship as a recepcionist, I started like two weeks ago. My manager approached me today and said that a customer told her l smelled very bad. The customer was very apologetic about it and my manager was very kind. I'm mortified, I had problems with hygiene before but I thought I was doing pretty good. The fact that all my coworkers could smell me stinking up the place is fucking me up. I'm going to up my higiene obviously but I can't bring myself to look them in the eye again knowing that they think of me as "that intern who stinks". I'm overanalyzing every interaction I had here. If I didn't still have 11 months of contract I would've probably quit on the spot. I was actually really liking working here and benefits and pay are good, but IDK how I can force myself to act normally after this.
