What causes sweating especially on the face?
It is said that localized sweating only in areas with well-developed sweat glands, such as the face, is caused by a body constitution that makes it difficult to sweat throughout the body. By becoming accustomed to being in a comfortable air-conditioned environment or by not exercising enough, more than half of the 2 to 5 million sweat glands in the body go dormant, but only the sides and face near the heart have active sweat glands, making them prone to sweat locally. There is also the possibility of facial hyperhidrosis, in which sweating occurs mainly on the face due to autonomic nervous system disorders, menopausal disorders, obesity, etc. If you are concerned about this, you may want to consult a medical specialist.
Even if you take measures to prevent facial sweating before leaving home in the morning, it would be impossible not to sweat a drop afterwards. To get through the hot summer season smartly, the three STEPs of prevention, coping, and re-prevention are effective. Below is a thorough explanation of what to do in each step and recommended items.
”[Prevention”Stock
Preventing facial sweating before leaving home 1″]It is actually effective to start preventing facial sweating the night before. Although antiperspirants may be thought of as something to be used in the morning just before leaving home, in fact, using them at night, when the sweat glands are resting from their activities, allows the active ingredients to penetrate the sweat glands, making it easier to control sweating the next day. Furthermore, if you use it after taking a bath, when your skin is in its cleanest state, you can expect even greater results.
Deo-Ace EX PLUS, born in Poland, is a roll-on type antiperspirant, and is exactly the right item for the above “prevention to be done at night. For those concerned about facial perspiration, applying it to the neck and chest area is also effective in preventing the spread of perspiration. However, although the product can be used for the entire body, care should be taken when applying it to the face, as it cannot be used around the eyes or on mucous membranes. Those with sensitive skin should use a cream-type antiperspirant that can also be used on the face just before going out in the morning. By adopting appropriate care at night and in the morning, the problem of facial sweating can be greatly reduced.
”[Prevention”Scalp
Measures to prevent facial sweating before leaving home 2″]Facial sweating is sometimes caused in part by “difficulty in escaping heat from the head,” so cooling down the scalp will indirectly reduce facial sweating This can also be expected to have an effect. As part of the prevention of facial sweating, it is recommended to use a cooling item on the scalp before leaving the house.
The Coolist Scalp Cooler is an item that refreshes the mind while treating the discomfort of scalp heat. Originally, it was intended to be used before using a hair dryer to relieve the heat of the dryer through the cooling sensation of menthol. By using this before going out, the refreshing sensation lasts and reduces head hot flashes caused by heat and tension. Another advantage is that the scalp approach is easy to adopt for those who do not like to apply anything directly to their face or are worried about skin irritation.

”[Prevention”Reduce
Preventing facial sweating before leaving home 3″]To prevent facial sweating, it is also important to “prepare” in the morning. Cream-type antiperspirant products adhere to the skin tightly, are resistant to sweat and sebum, and remain effective for a long time. Some cream-type antiperspirants contain ingredients that work by covering the exit of the sweat glands, making it difficult for the face to perspire in the first place. On hot days or when going out in public, just a little extra care like this can make a big difference in the stress caused by facial perspiration. Using antiperspirant creams is also recommended, but some of them are very irritating and may cause skin irritation, so those with sensitive skin should be careful. In such cases, a makeup base for women can be surprisingly reliable. Women’s face perspiration is relatively less noticeable, partly because men and women sweat different amounts to begin with, but also because they use makeup bases and powders to prevent sebum. Colorless sebum base is easy for men to use, so it is recommended that they use this type of base to prevent sebum buildup. Unlike deodorants, these products contain beauty ingredients and are light on the skin.

So far we have introduced measures to prevent facial sweating before leaving the house as “prevention,” but next we will explain how to “deal with” the situation when you are actually sweating, such as when you are out and about.
”[Dealing”Putting
Face sweat while you are sweating 1″]This is a life hack that has been buzzed about on SNS. The mechanism is that by putting ice in the mouth, the heat around the face is reduced, creating an illusion in the brain that makes it harder to sweat. However, the effect is only expected to be temporary, so it is recommended when you want to prevent sweating when walking outside for a bit, such as from home to the station.
”[Coping”Cool
Measures to prevent facial sweating while sweating 2″]If you want to stop the sweat floating in the form of hives, try cooling the area around the lymph nodes in the neck and underarms. Cooling the areas where lymphatic vessels are concentrated can effectively cool down and thereby inhibit sweating. At home, wrap a thin towel around a cooling agent and apply it to your neck, or if you are out and about, apply a chilled beverage bottle to your neck, or use an ice ring to cool your neck.
Ice rings are like refrigerants that can efficiently cool lymph nodes in a form that easily fits around the neck. If frozen in the freezer before leaving home, it will make traveling in the hot sun much more comfortable. Repeated use is also ◎.
”[Coping”Aiming
Measures to prevent facial sweat while sweating 3″]When sweat evaporates on the skin surface, it reduces body heat through vaporization heat (evaporative heat). This is a natural cooling effect, and if the sweat is completely wiped away, this cooling effect will be disturbed. Therefore, immediately after perspiration begins to occur, it is best to allow it to evaporate naturally without forcibly wiping it off. To promote this evaporation, it is best to physically blow air on the sweat. Uchiwa fans and fans can be used, but recently handy fans have become quite popular, so it is a good idea to use such gadgets. However, if you are sweating so profusely that your sweat is pouring down, it is better to wipe it off to some extent by lightly pressing down with a towel or the like.
If you leave your face as it is after sweating a lot, sebum stains and salts may remain on the skin, causing skin irritation. It is also important to re-prevent the next time you sweat. In the following, we will discuss ” re-prevention ” after sweating.
”[Re-prevention”Gently
Prevention of facial sweating after sweating 1″]While it is best not to wipe away sweat as much as possible while sweating, leaving it as it is after sweating is harmful to the skin as it causes clogged pores and other problems. Also, after sweating, the deodorant effect of leaving the house may have washed off and faded, so you are back to being prone to facial sweating. Therefore, it is important to re-prevent this.
First, wipe the sweat away gently with a towel or other towel. Scrubbing will damage the skin, so use the image of controlling the sweat and allowing it to be absorbed by the towel. Then, wipe it off with a sweat sheet (for the face) to remove salt, excess sebum, and dirt contained in the sweat and keep the skin clean. Recently, more and more types are being developed for dry and sensitive skin, so choose the one that suits your skin type.
”[Re-prevent”Spray
Face sweating after sweating 2″]While deodorant sweat wipes may contain sweat-inhibiting ingredients, it is also important to prevent sweating again with a spray-type antiperspirant! When choosing a spray-type antiperspirant, check the ingredients carefully. If you are looking for a highly effective antiperspirant, you must choose a quasi-drug antiperspirant. We recommend that you choose an antiperspirant that contains active ingredients approved by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, and check whether it contains chlorhydroxyaluminum or zinc paraphenol sulfonate. Chlorohydroxyaluminum is effective in blocking perspiration by putting a lid on sweat glands and is less irritating to the skin. And zinc paraphenol sulfonate is expected to tighten pores and inhibit sebum secretion.

”[Extra”Make
Fundamental measures against facial sweat 1″]So far, we have introduced “coping care” to control facial sweat and prevent stickiness. The following is a list of some of the most common remedies for facial perspiration. If you want to reduce facial sweating in the first place, it is effective to get into the habit of exercising. If you lead a life in which you do not sweat much, the sweat glands become less active, and you tend to sweat more concentrated in one part of the body (especially the face). The mechanism is that if you exercise and sweat in a well-balanced manner throughout your body, sweat is less likely to be concentrated only on your face. Regular exercise and sweating can also be expected to awaken the sweat glands that have gone dormant. If muscle training is difficult, it is a good idea to sweat lightly by walking or jogging at a pace that makes you feel a little out of breath. Incidentally, it is said that aerobic exercise and other exercises that mark a certain number of rhythms can also be expected to help regulate the autonomic nervous system.
”[Extra”Regulate
Fundamental Face Sweat Measures 2″]Many men cannot stop sweating their faces when nervous…? This may be due to the fact that the sympathetic nervous system, which stimulates sweating, is hypersensitive and overly dominant due to stress. To improve this situation, it is important to balance the autonomic nervous system. The first priority to be aware of is to get around 7 hours of good quality sleep and to soak in a hot tub. Both are said to be effective in regulating the autonomic nervous system. Incidentally, alternating between sauna and water bath, which has become increasingly popular over the past few years, is also effective in regulating the autonomic nervous system.
