Common summer grooming issues (and how to solve them)

Summer: the season of sun, sea air, the scantily clad and sweat. Despite all of the romanticism surrounding the warmer months, the reality is it’s a sweltering, sticky, occasionally pungent and oft-uncomfortable mess. Once the balminess and breeziness of spring gives way to rapidly rising mercury, style and grooming mishaps are only exasperated by the uneasiness the temperature courts. Come prepared to counteract the nuisances that come with the incoming clime with these select grooming products and knowledge.

Don’t sweat it

Sweating: it’s a bit disgusting but it’s also very natural. The most unfortunate side effect of the heat for anyone who has a gland that has a tendency to react with gusto, it can a little embarrassing, not to mention restrict wardrobe options to a bare handful of colours. There are ways to combat the underarm flow if a normal antiperspirant isn’t up to the job, including a super strength treatment. Driclor is one such product that forms a gel matrix on the effected sweat glands and reduces sweat flow by reabsorbing it into the body and disposing of it in a normal way.
