Seriously sweaty face in this weather!

Does anyone else get so sweaty your face literally drips with sweat?!

For me personally I think it's 50% the heat and 50% my anxiety as when I sweat a bit I feel like everyone is noticing which makes me sweat more! I hate it so much, was in a meeting today and it's all I can focus on 😭

Does anyone have any tips for dealing with this?

No tips. I'm the same. I'm over weight but it definitely got worse with age. I hate it.

Me too!

It's just the worst. It's starting to make me nervous to be in a situation where I know I'll sweat which in turn makes it worse as it's almost like I'm making it happen by thinking about it.

Me too. It's literally running down my face and dripping off my nose and my chin. Very unattractive Blush

Bright red face and sweaty top lip, I just love summer

My stepdaughter who is pregnant, lightly sprays her face with a Vichy antiperspirant, near the hairline, lightly mist over face and also the back of her neck.

She says it’s stopped her face from perspiring and hasn’t clogged her pores.

Ahh hideous isn't it. I've thought about an anti perspirant or something but I've got sensitive skin and don't want to irritate it. Is it a normal deodorant she just uses in her face or is it specially for that?

@FruitTwiatFanta -

This one

She holds it quite away from her and is careful not to breathe in as she mists her face with it.

Vichy are primarily a skincare brand so that’s why she uses that one rather than Mitchum etc

When I was in Spain last year and it was approaching 40 degrees (and still 30 ish in the evenings) I rubbed my Mitchum block deodorant on my forehead and rubbed a thin layer on my face with my fingers. It really helped. I had been a dripping mess before then.

Thank you!! Think I'm going to get that Vichy one.
