How to Stop Underarm Sweating Cheaply at Home
- 1). Wash your underarms several times a day with soap and a washcloth. This will prevent bacteria from growing throughout the day. Dry under your arms thoroughly after washing.
- 2). Apply an over-the-counter antiperspirant to your underarms. This will block the sweat glands, keeping them from sweating. Some antiperspirants reduce sweating over time, even if you do not apply the solution every day.
- 3). Rub hand sanitizer under your arms. Alcohol will kill the bacteria under your arms and cause wetness to evaporate.
- 4). Spray aerosol sunscreen underneath your arms. Aerosol sunscreen contains alcohol, which will dry out your armpits in the same way hand sanitizer does.
- 5). Use baby wipes to wipe underneath your arms, especially after exercising. Baby wipes are moistened, so they will wipe sweat away from the underarms better than a dry paper or cloth towel.
