If You’re Starting To Sweat All The Time Again, These 33 Personal Care Products Are Here To Help

Consider this list a care package for anyone who feels like a lil’ overheated rotisserie chicken the moment the thermostat goes above 80.

by Daysha Edewi BuzzFeed BuzzFeed Staff

As a resident writer on the BuzzFeed Shopping team, I can't believe that I get to search the internet to help you find the best, most unique, life-changing products for my job.

1. The internet-famous Revlon oil-absorbing volcanic face roller to keep your face from looking more glazed than a Krispy Kreme donut by 3 p.m (or real talk, 10 a.m when it's a hot, humid day 🥵). Just swipe it over your skin and watch the volcanic stone instantly mattify your skin without disturbing your makeup. And because it’s reusable, you’re not constantly burning through packs of blotting sheets.

Amazon, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "First off, if you have extremely oily skin, this. is. it. I was so tired of getting blotting powder/wipes. It felt wasteful and always left residue on my face. I saw this on TikTok and NEEDED it. It was backordered, but then I got an email saying it was in stock, and I was SO excited. Not only is it affordable, but it's washable, which helps you save money and be less wasteful." —Kelsey B.

Get it from Amazon for $6.64.  

2. ~Or~ Laneige's Neo Blurring Powder if you've been fighting for dear life against forehead shine since the weather became 80+ 🥵. This super viral K-Beauty powder is packed with three ultra-fine powders, plus Blue Hyaluronic Acid, which is unbelievably good at blurring your pores, absorbing excess oil, and doing so without making you look dry or cakey. Everyone will ask what filter you're using in your photos, but you'll get to revel in the knowledge that it's actually this powdery witchcraft.

Amazon, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I loved this setting powder, it blurred my pores and blended my makeup so well that even my husband noticed. Wow! I will be buying more before people find it and sell it all out, hehehe." —Charlotte Laim 

Get it from Amazon for $25. 

3. A tube of absolute sorcery otherwise known as Monistat's Chafe Relief Powder Gel to keep your thighs protected from the worst sensation known to mankind: chafing (eeeeyuuuuuckkkk). I've been using this stuff for literal YEARS and just truly can't get over how they managed to give you that same feel as baby powder, but in a lightweight gel that isn't going to get all over your clothes. Witchcraft, I say! Complete witchcraft (that I pray never stops being conjured up by those genius witches 🧙🙏🏾).

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

YAAAALLLL! This cream literally changed my life as a lifetime member of the Thick Thigh Posse! It leaves such a silky matte finish between your thighs that feels so divine when wearing shorts or dresses. Trust that I have tried many, many products to beat chafing, and this is by far one of my top faves.

Promising review: "This is the holy grail of no chafing!!! I live by this in the summer, or anytime I have to wear swimsuits, shorts, dresses, or skirts. Goes on easily and does not feel greasy or gross on your thighs. It's unscented, so no strange smells. It also lasts for a long time, lasting all day for a Disney Trip. Best working stuff I have found, works much better than products that are in a deodorant stick style. I will never be without this chaffing cream, even my husband has used this!" —aberfitchgr534

Get it from Amazon for $7.47 (also available in a pack of four or 24).

4. An anti-bacterial butt acne-clearing lotion because swamp butt is a total thing in the summertime and often leads to acne in undesirable places. This stuff combines 2% salicylic acid with common skin soothers like tea tree and chamomile to fight breakouts while also calming irritation. *And* it's infused with hyaluronic acid for deep hydration and to improve your skin's health.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This product is gentle on the skin, but strong enough to combat any buttock issues caused by stress, environmental issues, or whatever. Living in the Deep South, we sometimes have a condition called 'swamp butt.' Little red bumps like a rash or breakout can form in sensitive areas. Using this product once a day after showering...I've had ZERO bumps in over three months. It works. Doesn't smell the greatest, but it's tolerable, for sure. Great product." —Billie B 

Get it from Amazon for $26.99.

5. A breathable set of colorful cooling towels here to keep you chill and cute while you survive endless amusement park lines. All you have to do is soak it, wring it out, shake it, and style as you like. It's long enough to wrap, fold, or drape however you want, and cool enough to stop you from sweating through your outfit by 10 a.m.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "These have been brilliant to use, draped around my neck on the long walk back to my car after gym workouts. They are lightweight and perform exactly as described. I’ve even been able to work in my yard in the Florida summer heat for the first time in years. Affordable and well worth the money." —Kim Pinson

Get a set of four from Amazon for $15.99+(available in 12 multicolor combos). 

6. Or! A flexible neck cooler that's light, comfy, and condensation-free — because feeling refreshed shouldn’t mean soggy. It stays cool for up to 2 hours and is made from a soft, elastic plastic that allows it to fit most necks. Whether you're hiking or just taking the subway, this will keep you nice and chill.

www.amazon.com

A lot of reviewers said they bought two so they can always have one ready in the freezer for when the other thaws out. It also comes with a handy insulated bag so that you can take your duplicate on the go!

Our AC was busted for a couple of days last summer. So after writing about these a ton, I got one to try and found it to be very helpful at keeping me cool for at least an hour or two (depending on how hot it was that day). And to boost the cooling effect, I would also layer with a neck fan, which really upped the icy factor. Then, after we got our AC fixed, I would use it whenever I walked my dog to stay cool. Definitely agree that I should have gotten more than one, so I always have one ready to go when the one I'm using melts, and plan to get a couple to keep in the freezer this summer in case there are any power outages or issues with the AC again.

Promising review: "I saw these on TikTok and thought, those might be a gimmick...but honestly they work really well and don't get condensation all over you. I would say on an 80+ degree day, they last a little over an hour. But that is why I purchased two and can switch them out of the fridge. If you live without AC, these are a must. I will definitely be using it all summer long." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in four colors and packs of one or two).

7. ~OR~ a cooling adhesive patch originally meant for migraines, but you can also wear it under your clothes to stay chill without anyone knowing for up to 8 hours — perfect for surviving weddings, work events, or anything involving a suit.

Amazon

Promising review: "I used these under my wedding dress recently because we decided to get married in June…in the desert…and heat. Plus, my dress was several layers, so I was afraid I was going to have a heat stroke from walking across the room. Enter: these patches! I put one vertically on the back of my neck (my half-up hairstyle covered the patch well), one on my lower back, and one on each hip under my chub-rub shorts. They stayed on for the whole 45-minute ceremony, the one-hour photo session after, and the entire four-hour reception, and I was able to regulate my temperature despite all the fabric on my dress. Not the usual use for these, but bride's gotta do what a bride's gotta do haha." —AmandaG

Get a pack of four from Amazon for $16.99.

8. E.l.f.'s Stay Cool Primer Stick if you've ever shown up to an important meeting only to realize your makeup is melting off your face like an ice cream cone in the middle of summer 🫠. This hydrating angel is packed with hyaluronic acid, aloe water, and coconut water so that your skin stays quenched and your makeup stays flawless all day.

Amazon

Promising review: "Just tried this primer along with theE.l.f. Soft Glam Satin Foundation and I cannot say enough good things! The primer felt clean and light going on. This is hands down the best primer I have used. The two products are amazing. Def my new favs! Love love love!" —Cozette

Get it from Amazon for $8. 

9. Tirtir's Mask Fit Makeup Fixer that'll make people think you got your makeup tattooed on your face because they've been with you since the morning, and it Has. Not. BUDGED!! Even in this heatwave! This lightweight mist keeps everything from foundation to lipstick locked into place without feeling greasy. Plus, it has a soft blurring effect that'll make it seem like your pores vanished, and always have you looking photo-ready.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Fellow BuzzFeed Shopping writer, Gabriela Manjarrez, knows a thing or two about this beauty gem and says: "Honestly, I don't think TirTir is ever getting rid of me. I have a particularly oily T-zone, and I've noticed that this setting spray truly does help control excess sebum and keeps my forehead from looking like a glazed donut. It also leaves a natural, satin finish with a soft sheen to it, which I LOVE. As someone who is way too lazy for touch-ups when I'm out and about, I appreciate that my glam stays locked👏 in👏 with this." 

Promising reviews: "I swear to you, this stuff is magical. My makeup never budges when I use this, and I don’t have to use that much. You can take it off with micellar water pretty easily, but I’m telling you I have ugly cried with this over my makeup, and my makeup stayed. the. same. It’s the best. It also has the nicest bottle; it sprays really evenly over your face, and if it has any flaw, it’s probably that it makes your makeup a little too dewy, but I usually use a little powder over the parts of my face I don’t want to be highlighted, and it works like a gem. Also definitely blurs my makeup very well. 10/10 would recommend!!!!" —Jennifier Moore

"I've fallen in love with this setting spray. It leaves the skin looking fresh, not shiny. It locks in makeup. The nozzle provides a very fine mist. I think it's replaced myUrban Decay All Nighter setting spray." —Michelle

Get it from Amazon for $15 (also available in a semi-matte version and in a pack of two).

10. A tube of antiperspirant hand cream if you feel like your sweaty, clammy hands have ever ruined a handshake, a date, or even your grip at the gym. This miracle in a bottle uses a quick-drying, non-greasy formula to absorb sweat fast. So your hands stay dry, soft, and totally shake-ready all day. Just put a dab on your hands right before going to bed and wake up with smooth hands instead of slippery ones.

Amazon

Promising review: "I used this product on my 10-year-old son. He sweats A LOT on his hands. He would tell me that he was embarrassed at school and he had problems making friends. My son told me he had never shaken a hand outside of mine ever before in his life...it broke me. As a father, I knew I had to fix this. I set an appointment with his doctor and got nowhere. The doctor said it's normal and should go away in the coming years. I asked about surgery, and they said it would be around $10,000, so I started saving. A couple of weeks went by, and I came across this product. I asked my son if he was OK with trying it, and he desperately said yes. We put it on, and his hands are completely dry now. When it worked, he started practicing shaking hands and high-fives with his brother. It's been two weeks now, and it is working AMAZING." —Hector Lorenzo

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two scents and in packs of two or three).

11. A Naturium cooling gel body wash that's like if your AC and your soap had an icy lil' baby. It cools on contact thanks to the menthyl lactate, deeply cleans your skin, and helps fight body odor with mandelic acid (a gentle AHA) and fermented sugar cane so you're not left feeling stanky, even after just showering. And it's got a citrusy-herbal scent that'll make the experience fun for your nose, too. Rinsing off will feel SO elite with this — especially after a long day outside or being slow-cooked in your air-conditionless house.

Amazon

Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping writer Amber Usher says: "Naturium is a staple in my body care regimen, so when I found out about this version, I knew I needed it immediately. I live in Georgia, and ever since I started using this body wash, I've noticed a significant reduction in body odor throughout the day, whether I'm outdoors gardening or doing my daily Hot Girl Walk. The scent is so light and fresh, and the cooling sensation is especially appreciated."

Promising review: "When I say this works for BO, it’s magic. For someone living in a hot state, working in a hot job, always working out and sweating, this product keeps you in check ALL DAY! No skin irritants, no dryness, and I feel clean. The mint isn’t strong, so you can feel the tingle, but not for long. I let it sit on my skin for at least three minutes before rinsing off. Best soap ever! I will continue to use this. Forget Dove antibacterial, forget Dial, BUY THIS!" —Shelby

Get it from Amazon for $16.88 (also available in 10 other styles).

12. ~OR~ a Lume acidified body wash with a bright citrus scent for anyone that feels like they can't step out of the shower during the summer without starting to feel funky again immediately. Unlike traditional soap, this odor-blocking bottle of magic is pH-optimized to help stop stinky smells in their tracks for at least 24 hours! And it's also formulated with mandelic acid, which can help with hyperpigmentation over time.

Amazon

It's also safe to use on sensitive areas.

Read more about how deodorants that turn skin acidic can help with odor from Mayo Clinic.

Promising review: "This body wash is a MUST for me. It really works. I don’t get musty or stinky when I sweat! Sad to say, but I was sick for three days and stayed fresh until the third day. I will keep buying Lume, because it works well to cut odor." —Shirmel

Get it from Amazon for $18.20+ (also available in four other scents, in two-packs, and in a sampler pack).

13. A set of cotton and bamboo liners to keep your boob sweat from creating a raging river down your chest and noticeably staining your fave top. These sweet angels are made with curved edges to better fit around your body. They absorb all that sweat and dirt buildup, which can protect your bras from stains (and extend their lifespan) — and they do this all while giving your skin a soft, breathable fabric buffer that makes everything less irritating. Honestly, it’s giving “Where has this been all my life?” energy.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This is one of those things that I wish I'd found years earlier. I've suffered from mortifying stress-induced under-boob sweat for most of my adult life. Also, I'm a lifelong Seattle girl who gets upset when it's warmer than 65 degrees outside. So when I stumbled upon this product, I was curious enough to buy a small pack. And yes, I've come back for MORE! For real, I won't put on a bra without one of these liners now. It absorbs all the moisture from heat and stress. And because it's a really soft bamboo/cotton mix, my skin is finally not feeling tortured under there! To the makers of this ingenious life-changing product: thank you, thank you, thank you!" —Niko

Get a three-pack from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in women's sizes M–XXL and in three colors or multicolor packs). 

14. And! A quick-dry anti-chafing "Fresh Breasts" lotion if you want extra protection against the aching, rashes, and soreness that underboob sweat can create. It goes on like a lotion but dries into a soft powder that is infused with soothing aloe to keep sweat, odor, and irritation away all day long. Plus, it’s free of aluminum, talc, and parabens, so even sensitive skin can breathe easy.

www.amazon.com

Fresh Body is a small business that specializes in personal care products. 

Promising review: "This stuff is amazing. I am a sweaty person. Apparently, I have no thermostat because randomly, I will just start sweating and it's a lot. Well, I ended up with yeast under my breasts, and it gets red and sore. After you shower, dry off really well and apply this cream (a little dab will do ya) under your breasts and say goodbye to the inflammation and soreness. I also use it in the down there region too. I will be buying this forever." —Deb Warwick

Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (also available in a pack of two, three or four).

15. *Or* some Megababe “Bust Dust” anti-boob-sweat powder, because did you know that you can get a yeast infection under there if it gets too damp? (Don't ask how I know this... but lemme tell you it is not a fun experience.) So, if you are prone to boob sweat and chafing, this talc-free, lightly lavender-scented body powder is ready to become your new best friend. Not only does it absorb moisture, but it also utilizes soothing skincare ingredients like aloe and chamomile to calm irritations. And with its mess-free pump, you can target sweaty spots on bras, shoes, or anywhere friction strikes.

Promising review: “Works amazing. Doesn’t really have an odor and helps keep me dry and from getting rashes under and around my boobs from my bras and bathing suits.

17. A pack of shower wipesfor all my peeps who turn into a puddle when the thermostat goes above 80, but would prefer not to take several showers a day. Thick, soft, and unscented, these wipes are great to use in between your day as they gently clean your whole body with no rinsing required. They’re also infused with aloe and vitamin E, so your skin stays happy and hydrated.

Amazon

They're also great to keep in your gym bag for a post-workout pick-me-up if you don't have time to shower.

Promising reviews: "These are excellent for travel and camping. I appreciate that they have no odor and are gentle enough for my sensitive skin." —Cherise

"I bike a short distance to work, and I don't usually get sweaty enough to justify a whole shower, but I do want to freshen up some. These are the perfect answer! The packets of 10 are lightweight. They are nicely moist, and each wipe is bigger than a baby wipe, so one is enough to freshen my entire body. The scent is just right: fresh, but not overly strong. I get to my desk at work feeling clean and professional, not worried I stink or that I smell like baby wipes. I will be ordering more!" —Kimberly Sandbulte

Get a pack of 50 (five packs with 10 wipes each) from Amazon for $22.99 (also available in a 10 pack or 20 pack of 10 wipes and in a 40-count or 80-count individual sheet pack).

18. A stunning Rollr "anti-odorant" starter pack that uses a pro and prebiotic formula to eliminate the odors brewing under your pits for good, along with minerals to help with tightening your pores under there so you're not so sweaty, too! You get to choose from four gorgeous gemstones to be your roller (that will also feel so cooling as you apply it), and then four divine, natural scent mixes that you just add to the thoughtfully designed glass base. After that, just add water, shake it up, and it'll last you 2–3 months! I bet you never thought that putting on deodorant could be a beautiful experience, but there's a first time for everything, my friends. 

Rollr

Rollr is a small biz that aims to revolutionize the world of deodorant in a gorgeous and eco-friendly way. They describe themselves as being "anti-odorant" because they use a pro and prebiotic formula that doesn't just mask odor, but completely stops it at the source. And they are also a "de-perspirant" because their special formula utilizes minerals that help to tighten your pores!

Promising review: "This is truly zero waste because the refill packages are made from paper, which can be recycled. The deodorant smells like perfume. It is expensive, but I don’t need to wear perfume now, so it works out cheaper overall. The deodorant is very effective, which is not always the case for “eco” deodorants." —Dawn

Get a Rollr and a scent from Rollr starting at $48 (available in four gemstone heads and four scents).

19. Or a pack of 30 aluminum-free deodorant wipes to keep your armpits from being not just stinky but STANKY on those days when you rushed out of the house, but missed giving your underarms a lil' swipey-swipe.

They're made with zero aluminum and will leave you smelling like a soft ocean breeze.

Amazon

Promising review: "I have always suffered from bad odor on my underarms since I have very delicate skin, so I can't use strongly scented deodorants. I'm always trying out cream deodorant or gels, but it either irritates my skin or doesn't stop my bad odor. THIS IS THE BEST INVENTION EVER. I LOVE IT! I can't believe that something finally works! My armpits don't smell bad. I can finally move my arms freely. The scent is wonderful; I love the smell, and it's not harsh on my skin. Even after a long day, my underarms are still smelling like coconut." —Vicky Reyes

Get a pack of 30 from Amazon for $9 (available in packs of two, four and eight).

20. SweatBlock antiperspirant wipes if your sweat glands work a lil' too well under your armpits (especially during the summer) and you can't wear a long sleeve shirt without checking for pit stains every few minutes. These use pure aluminum chloride to block sweat before it even starts. Just swipe right before bed, and you'll be sweat-free under there for up to 7 days!

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Each box lasts two months!

Promising review: "For anyone who might be a skeptic, please allow me to put you at ease. If you have hyperhidrosis, meaning it can be 9 degrees outside and you're still sweating under your arms, this product has the potential to change your life. I would sweat THROUGH a sport coat before noon. Enter the Sweat Block product. I've had it for three weeks, and it is life changing. I DO NOT sweat under my arms anymore. I'm still on the original box that I bought three weeks ago. I had to write a review after I was cleaning the garage today in 85-degree heat...I was sweating through my shirt on my back...BUT NOT MY UNDERARMS. It is amazing!" —Frosty McGee

Get a 10-count box from Amazon for $19.97+ (also available in packs of two or three boxes).

They're also great at keeping sweat from running into your eyes and odors from lingering. You just peel off the adhesive backing, place it above the rim inside of your hat, and bam!

www.amazon.com

NoSweat is a small business!

Promising review: "I show horses in Texas, and it’s hot! I started using these in my riding hats a few years ago, and they’re a game changer. They capture all the sweat and keep it from running in my eyes. I can usually use one for a few different competitions. They don’t change how the hats fit either, because they’re very thin." —ponygirlatcua

Get a pack of three from Amazon for $27.99 (also available in packs of six, 12, and 25).

22. A vented cooling cap that'll keep your forehead from becoming a slip 'n' slide during vigorous activity, like a glorious bike ride. If you're sick of *almost* tumbling into a bush or missing a turn because of salty sweat burning your eyes, this cap's breathable, cooling mesh fabric can help keep you chill, dry, and sunburn-free.

www.amazon.com

Psst — it can also be great for helping tame "CPAP hair," according to reviewers.

24. A Benzene-free, travel-friendly applicator of I Dew Care's dry shampoo powder if your excessive sweating is making your hair look gross and you've only been out of the house for like an hour. Just keep some of this stuff in your bag or your car so you can touch up your locks between washes. You just pat it on your hairline to immediately absorb oil and sweat. It also contains black ginseng and biotin to help with adding volume. If you hate using aerosol on your hair, this is a great alternative (since there are sooo many spray-on dry shampoo versions out there).

Get it from Amazon for $13.59+ (available in three versions, a refill pack, and in a pack of two or three). 

25. A shoe deodorant spray that uses essential oils like lavender, citrus, and eucalyptus within the unique plant-based formula to actually eliminate foot odor within your shoes instead of just masking it. And it's concentrated, which means a little goes a long way, and that one bottle can last you for up to six months! Now you'll never have to worry about letting those dogs out when visiting friends over the summer who have a "shoes off at the door" policy. Just give your shoes a lil' spritz when you take them off and rest easy.

www.amazon.com

You can also use it on gym bags, boxing gloves, and anywhere else you think needs a refreshing spritz!

Lumi Outdoors is a small biz that creates odor-eliminating products using natural ingredients

Get it from Amazon for $13.95+ (available in three scents, a spray/powder pack and a three-scent-pack).

26. *Or* the divine-smelling, aluminum-free Megababe foot deodorant spray if summer heat tends to generate some undesirable scents down by your feet.

Just make sure you shake it up, apply it to clean feet (especially in-between the toes), and let it fully dry before putting your socks or shoes on.

Amazon

Megababe is a woman-owned small business!

Promising review: My feet STANK in my new shoes that probably had bad ventilation. I started using this, and my feet don’t stank now when I get home after a 12-hour shift. Not only does it work, but it also smells good." —erika

Get it from Amazon for $13.99.

27. A bottle of Carpe antiperspirant foot lotion, because summer heat has a special way of turning sneakers or other closed-toe shoes into tiny slippery, stinky saunas. If you're constantly anxious about smells or taking your shoes off in other people's homes, just rub your feet down with this stuff. It not only dries quickly, but it's lightweight — meaning that your feet won't feel greasy after applying.

Amazon

Promising review: "Bought this for my boyfriend, who is on his feet all day and was always complaining about how sweaty his feet got. He usually had to bring at least one extra pair of socks to change into during the day. He also had to buy shoes more often because of how they smell. It would be impossible for us to get out the smell. Since he began using this product, he can't believe how dry his feet stay ALL day. His socks don't even smell after a full day of work. He's now obsessed, and it's become a part of his daily routine." —Amazonaholic

Get it from Amazon for $19.95 (also available with an applicator). 

28. An unscented, cooling body and facial mist that may technically be "just water" on paper, but many reviewers swear it's a lightweight, icy miracle in a spray can. It provides instant cooling relief to hot, flushed skin and contains certain minerals that can help soften and calm your skin.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I use this religiously at work every afternoon as a pick-me-up when my skin starts to feel hot, flushed, and dry from the stale office air. I also live in Utah, where the air is extra dry anyway. This feels so fresh and light. It calms my skin right down and gives me a little much-needed moisture and glow. And if you just do a light mist and let it completely dry naturally, it won't interfere with your makeup either; no smudging or running." —Angela Thompson

30. A bottle of Happy Nuts Comfort Cream that, uh, really says it all in the name🙃🥜. If hot weather has your thighs in a full-blown chafing battle with your... dangly bits downstairs, this lotion-to-powder cream is going to have both sides waiving the white flag. It absorbs sweat, helps stop odor, and creates an anti-friction barrier that keeps things way more comfortable down there all day long.

The formula is aluminum-free, so it won't stop sweating, but the tapioca powder can help absorb it.

Happy Nuts is a small business specializing in grooming products.

Promising review: "This stuff is 5–10 times better than regular powder! It instantly soothes irritation, deodorizes after a shower, and quiets the chafe after long sessions on the treadmill. I can't recommend it enough! Stop buying/using Gold Bond and other similar powders, and start using this. I'll be buying two more tubes in the near future." —Devin G.

Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in four scents, including unscented, and packs of two and three).

31. Or Carpe's Groin Powder with the most divine white jasmine scent because you've got a sweat storm brewing down at your lower half and under some skin folds that are making things reeeeeeal uncomfortable. This silky body powder helps absorb the moisture in all the places that tend to get sticky when the temps get hotter, while also calming skin and preventing irritating rubbing.

This isn't an antiperspirant, so it won't stop sweat, but it will help to soak up sweat to keep you dry and comfortable!

Promising review: "I have recently lost a lot of weight and have skin that hangs over in my belly area. I have tried several products to help with the sweating that occurs, which leads to abscesses on a monthly basis. I finally saw this product and decided to give it a try. I am truly amazed at how happy I am with the results! The lightly scented powder keeps me dry without caking, and I have not had the hint of an abscess since starting it. I love it! Thank you for coming up with such a great product!" —Tammy

Get it from Amazon for $19.95 (also available in packs of two or three).

32. A blister-preventing foot balm so you can power through your summer vacation itinerary instead of hobbling through it. This creates a non-greasy barrier that protects your feet from rubbing and chafing that can happen because of excess sweating. *And* it's packed with vitamins A and C to calm any irritation or dryness, making it the perfect little lifesaver to pack for sightseeing, theme park days, or even long workdays on your feet.

Promising review: "I was so excited to get a new pair of my favorite brand of summer sandals, but the first time I wore them, they ripped up my heels. Since they were not returnable and I wasn't about to trash them, I was desperate and gave this balm a try. It worked beautifully! I applied the balm liberally to each of my heels when I put my shoes on, and the back of my foot/heels were protected all day long! I can't say enough positive things about this product." —Guerra-Diaz 

Get it from Amazon for $8.99 (also available in a gift set).

33. And a pack of suede heel grips to help make extra sure your foot sweat doesn't lead to slipping, rubbing, and painful blisters.

Promising review: "I have very narrow heels so finding shoes that do not slip is incredibly difficult. However, since I have purchased the Pedag Stop Padded Leather Heel Grips, I have been able to wear all of my shoes. The heel grips are thick enough to keep my shoes from slipping in the back but not too thick to where it makes my shoes feel smaller. Also, the heel grips are made out of a super soft leather. Even through having sweaty shoes, the heel grips have stayed stuck to the back part of the shoe. Each set of heel grips is wrapped individually so it is easy to store the extras that I am saving for shoes in the future." —Derek
