Garment Guard underarm shields protect clothing from sweat stains.
It’s summer. It’s hot. That means most of us are schvitzing (and not voluntarily).
For 3 percent of the population, Hyperhydrosis is a serious problem, but one of the things few people talk about.
Sweating can cause any number of fashion dilemmas from ruined shirts to too slippery flip-flops.
The International Hyperhydrosis Society suggests drinking lots of water, wearing loose natural fabrics and breathable shoes.
Or you can try disposable underarm shields by Garment Guard ($10.95) for a pack of 5.
The thin pads adhere to any fabric and prevent even heavy sweaters from sweating through clothes.
What’s your remedy for keeping clothes sweat free?

You can also go to your doctor and ask for a prescription for Drysol (the generic is called Aluminum Chloride.) It is applied just like deodorant.
The generic is less than ten dollars. It works wonderfully!! I highly recommend it!! I’ve also heard botox injections help against the profuse sweating but don’t quote me on that.
