These tips are in order of how easy they are to implement. Remember, the very best results come when you combine them.

Best Sweat Reduction Tips: #1 – Choose Dark Colours:

Bright clothing shows the sweat patches very easily. Choose black or navy for the best camouflage. Alternatively, plain white hides sweat well – though this is more fabric dependent.

Best Sweat Reduction Tips: #2 – Use Antiperspirant:

Best Sweat Reduction Tips: #3 – Shave Your Armpits:

.
This tip is for men, since ladies have known about this for decades already. You’ll allow your antiperspirant to get to where it is needed by shaving. You will also reduce heat, which triggers more sweat. As a bonus, microbes (which produce smells) love the armpit hairs, and removing this reduces their numbers significantly.

Some man-made fabrics are good at removing sweat from its source. Older polyesters can become home to microbes (and get smelly). Cotton is cool, though does hold on to sweat. New man-made fabrics are ideal. These will combine being breathable with moving sweat away.
