Sweating.

[Ms.Thang_Has-It-All]

I don't sweat, I glow/ sparkle/ shimmer/ bling bling/ shine ... hehe

Honestly I don't do it that often. When I was little I use to purposely play hard at recess to try and sweat, but it didn't work. Even when its 100 degrees and I'm running outside, I still don't sweat. The most I ever do is get a lil moist. I have to admitt, I'm quite thankful !!!

Thank you.  I can see the sweating problem of mine getting a *little* bit better.  I'm using Secret anti-perspirant deodorant.  It's still bad, but I can see it going away a little.  Hopefully I'll grow out of it....maybe....?

some anti-perspirents work well, others suck.  Even Secret Platinum Protection or Degree don't work well for me.  But....I'll have to give my final report later, but I tried a promising new kind called (uh lemme check) Ah.....Dry Idea.  The gel kind.  It is working really really well, and it hasn't irritated my skin yet.  The gel texture is kinda weird, but it seems to be working.
If you can't get Dry Idea, here are some other things I have found. --
1) Kind of Deoderant/Antiperspirent:  Look for Extra-Strength or something similar.  Generally, the regular white kind works better than the clear protection kind.  The soft solid does not work at all for me.
2) Clothes - Dress warm enough but not too warm. Sometimes being to cold can cause problems.
3) Buy many sticks of deoderant and keep them with extra clothes everywhere.
That's all folks.

I used to think I was the only one who this happened to.  It can be so embarassing.  It's really noticable with some of my shirts too.  I often wear tank tops, even in the winter, just to avoid this.

My mom said she used to have this problem really bad, but she grew out of it, at least her feet and pits.  Her hands are still really bad though.

I used to have the exact same problem, and I'd pray every night that it would go away and I would grow out of it. Well...I'm not sure if I did or not. No secret or degree works for me, so one day, me and my mom were at CVS and i needed deocerant becuase I go through it like crazy, and she told me to hurry up and pick something cheap so we could leave. So i picked the cheapest deoderant I saw...a small thing of DOve. Well let me tell you, that antipersperant is the best thing i've tried, including lady mitchum. I hardly sweat any more, and it works really good. clear kinds don't work so well, only the solid antipersperants. I think I use the Powder kind, because the sensitive skin didn't work as well. So if you want to try that, it works. Either that or I've just grown out of it, which I really hope has happened!

Also, another hting that I noticed when I used to sweat really bad is that I would only do it around my friends at school or at practice. i never did it at home unless it was really realy hot, so i found that wierd, but anyway, hope this helps

Same goes for me! Odd...

Anyways, I use men's Mitchum...it doesn't work as well as I'd hoped...but it's better than nothing I suppose. Argh, I'm getting desperate here.

READ THIS:

You may be victims of hyperderomis. (sp?)
This can be cured with surgery or with presribed antipersperiant.

OR - READ THIS- go to CVS or whatever and buy CERTAIN DRI. I repeat: CERTAIN DRI. It's an antipersperiant. Put it under your arms at night right before you fall asleep and when you wake up you will be dry. I put a tiny bit on in the mornings too. So, yea, ignore the directions that say you only need it at night and put it on at night and in the morning. It may take a day or so for this stuff to kick in, but do try it. I haven't had a drop of sweat since I got it. ;D

[Cassiopeia]

^^^ Is that Certain Dri stuff really expensive? Right now, I use Degree deodorant/anti-persperant, and it works pretty well, but I still do get sweat stains occasionally. I'd like to try something that's even more effective, but I don't exactly have a huge amount of money to spend on deodorants.

[x n0ise]

Yes, how much is that Certain Dri? Is it perscription???

[CurlyQ_Gal]

No prescription needed; you find it in the deodorant section. (Just look closely, its there but in a box). It's about six dollars but it lasts for months. And it's worth it.
