Be Sweat-Stain Free With Sweat Block

By Tara.

Just last month, I had to do a family photo thing and the mother-in-law wanted us all to wear white shirts. This was a huge problem for me. I honestly had no white shirts in my closet. None.

Why? I got tired of yellow sweat stains. It was just easier to buy everything in black.

Finally, someone has come up with a solution to this problem. Introducing Sweat Block, an antiperspirant in a tiny towelette form that stops sweating for up to 7 days! And if you don't sweat, you don't have stains.

I confess I had my doubts. My eyebrow was even arched as I read the box. But to my great surprise, IT WORKS.

First of all, you can order these online (visit the site link above) or you can find this product at your nearest Walmart. One box is an 8-week supply. After your shower and drying off *don't shave before using these. You don't want an open cut or anything so be sure to use it on non-shaving night*, gently DAB (do not wipe) one towelette under each armpit. Air dry. Go to bed.

Don't sweat it. Easy as that.

Pros:
-You literally don't sweat for up to 7 days. For me it was about 5. This will vary with individual.
-No sweat stains, no foul body odor.
-Lift your arms just like the people in those deoderant commercials who are terribly confident in their armpits.
-FDA compliant.
-While it's not hypoallergenic, as someone who suffers severe allergies, I am pleased to say I did not break out.

Cons:
-There's some discomfort the first time you apply it. They say this is normal, this tingling. They also say to apply it before bed. This caused me so much discomfort the first night, however, I honestly had a hard time sleeping. To avoid this the second time around, I applied it in the morning. Now, the second time around, I felt no sensation at all, so this may be a first-time application thing.
-I'm not fond of the smell, but it does beat body odor.
-You still have to wear deoderant. Why?
-You kinda have to walk around for a few minutes like a monkey, your arms out to your sides, while the stuff dries.

So, if you're a nervous sweater, an athlete who likes to avoid stinking, a menopausal sweater, whatever...give this a try. It really does work.
