If you’re struggling with excessive sweating, be sure to read on for advice on how to cope with sweat stains.
Sweat itself is clear, but when sweat patches form and dry on your clothes, the salt, proteins, and oils in your sweat may leave a residue. This usually disappears in a regular cycle with normal machine washing.
Sweat stain problems occur if the sweat patches are left to dry and the affected items of clothing are not washed for a long time, or if there’s a build-up of antiperspirant or deodorantproduct mixed in. Over time, the aluminium in the product and the salt in your sweat combine to form a yellow sweat stain, which makes it harder to remove with a normal washing cycle.
White sweat stains (or marks) on clothes can come from your deodorant or antiperspirant product residue. Some products transfer easily onto your clothes and leave marks as you get dressed.
Luckily, there are other products available that are specially designed to leave no white sweat marks or residue on your clothes and to prevent the build-up of yellow sweat stains, so you still get great protection – for you and your favourite items of clothing.
Sweat patches or stains are embarrassing and can be difficult to remove from clothing. While there are many antiperspirant deodorants designed to eliminate or avoid sweat stains, there are also some simple home remedies that can be just as effective. Here are tips on how to prevent sweat patches on clothes:
Be sure to add an antiperspirant deodorant to your handbag or rucksack which will assist you with odour control and excessive sweating.
The Shield Invisible range of deodorants is specially formulated to provide effective protection against sweat and odour without leaving any white or yellow residue on clothes. This ensures that your clothes remain stain-free, giving you confidence throughout the day.
Unlike some regular deodorants that can leave white marks or contribute to yellow staining due to their ingredient composition, the Shield Invisible range is designed to combat these common issues. It goes on clear, ensuring that your clothes remain spotless while still offering the same level of sweat and odour protection.
Yes, the Shield Invisible range is formulated to be gentle on the skin while providing effective protection against sweat and odour. However, as with any skincare product, if you have particularly sensitive skin or any known allergies, it's always a good idea to conduct a patch test before using it regularly.
