Whenever it's hot, or i'm working out, or exerting myself at all- my entire body becomes drenched in sweat and my face turns bright red (not just a healthy glow, but disturbingly red like a devil) and people are always like "OMIGOD ARE YOU OKAY?!?!??!" and it's SO annoying and embarassing.
What causes this whole sweat problem (i know it's not hyperhydrosis because it's not like i have sweatstains all the way down to my waist)
and what can i do to stop it?
and why does my face turn all red ?
(and it's not puberty, i've passed that)

BeFABULOUSxo answered Monday October 1 2007, 5:32 pm: Been there! You MIGHT have what I have. It is called hyperhydrosis. Hyperhydrosis means that you have overactive sweatglands. Go to your dermatologist and he might prescribe you something called Aluminum Chloride. It's awesome. I used to use but I moved onto a type of pill. Its a pill that dries out your whole body. It doesnt hurt or anything. Your mouth just gets dry in the morning lol. But if it's not that, Ban and Certain Dry work good for most.
*P.S. Hyperhydrosis doesn't mean you have sweat stains to your waist. It just means you have over-active sweat glands. You aren't necessarily drowning in sweat. [ BeFABULOUSxo's advice column | Ask BeFABULOUSxo A Question ]

Even if you think you're sure it's not hyperhydrosis, I'd check out this site, just in case.
christina answered Monday October 1 2007, 2:06 pm: Some people sweat a lot more than other people do. I would see a doctor & see what they say. They might recommend a deoderant that'll help, or they might not even be able to help. I would just see a doctor anyways. If he/she has no help - go through as many deoderants as possible before you find the one that works good for you. [ christina's advice column | Ask christina A Question ]
