What I would do in your situation is carry some wipes or if you wear makeup carry some tissues or even a towel to pat down your face after you do that you can just powder on some bronzer or face powder to eliminate red spots. try it and let me know how it goes if not so we can try another solution. :) [ MeliAnn's advice column | Ask MeliAnn A Question ]

If you don't want to talk to the doctor, or want to try something else first, I would recommend putting on a layer or liquid foundation, letting it dry, and then follow up by putting on a powder like bare minerals. Doing this will help absorb the oils and sweat, and reduce the appearance of wetness on your face.
Good luck [ Bethanywren's advice column | Ask Bethanywren A Question ]
