A national survey conducted for Certain Dri, the number-one antiperspirant brand recommended by doctors for treating excessive perspiration, 45% of American adults indicate they suffer from problematic perspiration.
Of this group, 18% – about 19 million people – indicate that their perspiration has ruined some of their clothes.
In addition, problematic perspiration is a source of embarrassment for 16% percent of this group – more than 16 million people.
Celebrity stylist Lauri Eisenberg offers a few of her no-sweat fashion tips that are sure to leave you feeling cool:
- Choose your fabrics wisely: Wear natural fabrics such as cotton, which absorbs and releases perspiration quickly allowing the skin to breathe. “Until you get your perspiration under control, I would suggest avoiding silks because silk is very unforgiving to noticeable sweat marks,” explains Eisenberg.
- Keep it dry: If you’re worried about noticeable sweat don’t worry! Curb the water works at night and apply antiperspirant at bedtime. Look for Certain Dri Anti-Perspirant Roll-On with 12% aluminum chloride. “Certain Dri, also available in a new solid application, provides 72-hours of protection from noticeable sweat, allowing you to wear just about any style or color and look fabulous while wearing it!”
- Buy clothing that fits: Try wearing shirts that are fitted, but not too tight. “It doesn’t have to be skin tight to look good,” explains Eisenberg. Tight-fitting clothes cause sweat to be trapped in a film on the skin, which can result in body odor or noticeable perspiration stains.
- Treat your feet: Another survey conducted for Certain Dri found that 30% of American adults – which translates to nearly 70 million people nationwide – admit to suffering from problematic foot sweat. 43% of this group indicate that perspiration of the feet is dependent upon the type of shoes worn. “If you suffer from sweaty feet look for Certain Dri FEET Moisture Control Pads, which contain 12% aluminum chloride, the ingredient recommended by podiatrists to control excessive foot moisture,” advises Eisenberg. And if it’s foot odor you’re worried about, look for Certain Dri FEET Microsponge Powder. It’s specifically developed for people suffering from excessive foot odor.
- Accessorize your outfit: “If you already have noticeable sweat stains or are still worried you will get them then try having a cardigan, wrap or light jacket handy to cover the stains, nobody will ever suspect you’re covering up sweat marks,” suggests Eisenberg.
