If you hate being sweaty, you're going to LOVE these 37 clever things on Amazon

To put it bluntly, I'm a sweaty person. If it's hot outside, I'm sweating in shorts — and if it's cold, I'm sweating in leggings. White T-shirts get thrown out after just a few weeks, and I can't even begin to tell you how bad my skin starts to chafe in the summer. But if any of that sounds familiar, don't worry. There are tons of clever things on Amazon that can help you make it through those extra-sweaty times.

And since I know that everybody sweats differently, I've made sure to include a variety of products on this list. Case in point? The personal fan that sits around your neck. It's a total must-have for the hotter months of the year if you like to exercise outdoors (or, you can simply wear it while relaxing on the couch). There's also a variety of balms and lotions that help prevent chafing, as well as dry shampoo for greasy roots. My favorite item in here, however, is probably the mineral sunscreen. It lasts for up to a full 80 minutes, even in water.

So what are you waiting for? There are so many clever things on Amazon that can help out us extra-sweaty people that I had trouble sticking to just 38 — keep scrolling to check out my favorites.

We only recommend products we love and that we think you will, too. We may receive a portion of sales from products purchased from this article, which was written by our Commerce team.
