Home Remedies to Reduce Underarm Sweat

Found another celebrity with underarm sweat marks. Yes, it’s the sexy latina Jennifer Lopez. Celebrity or not, it is really difficult to avoid having sweaty armpits. However I saved up two home remedies for you to solve the problem.


The Apple Vinegar Treatment

Apple vinegar is available in grocery stores so it’s quite simple to get one. Make sure to trim underarm hair before applying the vinegar at night. Let the vinegar dry and wash it off in the morning with soap and water. The acid contained in the vinegar will help neutralize the odor caused by sweat and inhibit sweating.

Baking Soda + Deodorant Treatment



Add water to baking soda until it becomes a paste. Apply this to your underarms and let it sit for 25 minutes. Wash it off with soap and water but make sure to leave baking soda residue in the armpits. Use deodorant with high aluminum chloride to achieve optimum result. Baking soda is an alkaline while the sweat is an acid. When the two combine, they form a gas that quickly evaporates the sweat.

These do not work overnight, however. It takes a week or two (or even months for some) before seeing optimum results. While the routine may be laborious, it could help you with the sweaty problem. For those who want immediate result, try Underarm Excessive Sweating Surgery. For more information regarding the procedure, it is best to consult a dermatologist. Those who are in in the Philippines (particularly near Ortigas, Tomas Morato, or Davao del Norte), drop by Dr. Almond Derla’s clinic at LaEstetica International. Palau residents are also fortunate to have LaEstetica International in Meyuns, Koror.





How to Eliminate Excessive Underarm Sweating

It’s embarrassing to have underarm sweat especially when everyone can see the sweat marks on your shirt. Imagine going to a Beyonce concert date with your lover. Expect a jam packed stadium. You are fashionably dressed for the night but when you review your pictures from your digicam you can see that the sleeves of your underarms are soaking with sweat! You’d like to keep the pictures as memorabilia of the concert date but you’d probably want to photoshop the underarms to erase the sweat marks.

I found several celebrity pictures with sweaty underarms and boy, they are not really nice to look at.

So how, do we deal with sweaty underarms? Here are several possibilities...

  •   Regular shower --- while shower could reduce the smelly odor of sweaty underarms and refresh the underarms from the sweat, it is inevitable to sweat again after several hours of heat exposure.

  •   Deodorant--- there are trusted brands that could actually aid in reducing underarm sweat but elimination of sweat is not 100% guaranteed.


  • Non-exposure to the sun --- would this mean no more day out in the sun? Besides, sweat could still form at night as long as the weather is hot.
  •  Lemon Juice--- rubbing the lemon juice on the armpits after bath is said to be effective…just bare the acidic/sour scent emanating from the armpits.

  • Talc powder---applying this on the armpit could be a bit messy but it could work for you.

  • Underarm sweat wipes—it claims to stop sweating when the antiperspirant wipe is dabbed on the armpit.
  • Underarm excessive sweating surgery--- a permanent solution to underarm excessive sweating. It may cost you money but this medical procedure would surely save you from that embarrassing sweaty armpits.
