In the human history, people try almost anything to get rid of that excess sweat and body odor. They wash their sweaty areas daily, cover the odor with deodorants and perfumes, and wear strong fragrances but does that really work. Things have changed over the past but human body remains the same.

About 50% of the population will suffer for excess sweat problem and nothing seems to work at that time. Deodorants include antiperspirant and antiseptic ingredient that do kill the bacteria present in the sweat but these solutions completely seem to fail in moist and warm environment.

Today you can easily get underarm sweat pads that are thin, disposable and sticks to the underarm like a dress pad. The most embarrassing part of sweating it not just the odor it brings along but the wet patches it leaves behind which are quite visible. On drying, their patches turn white and at times they are so hard to remove that you do not feel like wearing that piece of clothing again.  This can be really annoying.

These underarm swear pads absorb excess sweat and are not at all expensive. It doesn’t need any maintenance, one pad works throughout the day and you do not need a strap to tie it either.  Some new clothing on the market even has a built in pocket or pad.
