About You
You, that hottie in the office and even celebs Sweat, it’s a part of a human body’s normal functionality and the way it cool’s itself. But it is certainly NOT cool!
Everyone has to sweat but it is still one of the most socially unacceptable and embarrassing “habits” around!
Girls, I am sure you’ve been there…You’ve slipped into your sexiest outfit, finished applying your lippie and spritzed yourself with your favourite fragrance. You’re rushing for the door when you reach up to fix your hair one last time in the hallway mirror and…you see them. Two unsightly sweat marks on your brand new silk top!
And Guys…. You’re on a jam packed bus on a stinking hot day. The only bonus is you’re bumping up against a stunning blonde. You catch her eye and smile only to have her look away, disgusted. Wondering what you’ve done to offend her you look down…and see the culprits. Two huge sweat marks on your blue business shirt. No wonder she’s unimpressed!
