deodorants


i kind of have a personal problem with sweating and i have tried dozens(literally) or deodorants and anti-perspirants but i still sweat through them. i was wondering if drinking too much water could be the cause? i drink about 2-3 liters of water everyday.

You can't stop drinking water because of this. I sweat a lot, too....mainly because I live in Brazil...just get a good anti- whatever....I use a roll-on...a strong one.

I think I read somewhere that fit people sweat more, anyway. Fat people, too.

There is a product called X-SWEAT and is actually sold at Golds Gym, It is unscented and feels like you have saran wrap under your pits, but it does keep you from sweating.

Arrid XX solid has always been great for me.

I rarely wear anything when I workout, though. I'm in the shower long before I stink (it takes time for underarm sweat to stink).

Sweat is good, especially when it pools in the belly button of my lover after a really good "session", bwahahahaha!!!

I will try and find where I had the reference, but there is supposed to be a powder that is excellent, making sweating impossible.

It's called Rexona Extreme. I doubt you will get where you live.

Theres a OTC product called "Certain Dri" that has had good results with a lot of people. I've used it for a little bit and it seems to be working pretty good. I don't notice that I sweat that much anymore. I went to the doctor at one point in high school and got a prescription for excessive sweating. There is a disease (for lack of better term) called hyperhydrosis that causes excessive sweating. I couldn't stand the prescription though becuase it made my armpits itch like no other.

Anyway, Certain Dri just has a lower percentage of what's in that prescription. The active ingredient is Aluminum Chloride. Its the same ingredient that most deoderants are made from but more potent. It's worth a try, not that expensive and I think you can buy it at almost any walmart type store.

Yes, shave.

And what is the problem with sweating? I mean, why is it such a big deal, or such a bad thing? What am I missing here?
