If you believe being hot should only describe your outfit and not how much you’re sweating, you’ve officially come to the right place.

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.

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 $18.18+ (available in six scents, including unscented; also available in two-packs and in a sampler pack).

Promising review: "I was skeptical after I sprayed this on my arm in a nice air-conditioned house. It smelled lovely, and a quick sting of mint hit my skin. I was very underwhelmed. It has been a warm day, and I took this outside since I knew I would be sweaty and warm. I sprayed this on my 'underboob' per package instructions. Holy wintery coolness! It’s been 10 minutes, and I’m still feeling the chill. Apparently, it works REALLY well if you’re sweating. It dries almost instantly, and I’m a tingly fresh still." —Michelle

Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in mint or lavender).

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 $26.99 (also available in a 10-pack or 20-pack of 10 wipes and in a 40-count or 80-count individual sheet pack).

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).

Prefer briefs? Check out this similar seamless design with rave reviews!

Promising review: "After trying these, the pursuit for the most seamless underwear ended with these, and I came to write that on my way to buy a second pack. I worked at VS for three years, which seems like forever ago, and tried every “seamless” thong under the sun- at the store and otherwise- all of which rolled, were still visible, or the liner was not cotton, which just feels gross by the end of a workout or the end of the day. These aren’t that. They DISAPPEAR under all the workout attire. Anti-camel toe… HELLO?!?! They don’t hold sweat. They don’t roll. They don’t move around.  I just had my fourth baby and first C-section a couple of months back, and these are wide enough in the front. What is this panty sorcery? I threw out everything else from anywhere else. Follow the size guide. I washed in warm water upon arrival, even with the red in the pack, and none of the colors bled. I’ve washed 2x, and they look the same as when I first opened the box. They’re wildly comfortable for a thong from someone who despises every thong and even other styles of underwear I’ve ever tried. Picky lady problems, the list went on. Always something wrong with them on my body. NOT THESE! What!?!! I work out in these, run errands, housework ahhhh — they’re my new go-to that I ditched everything else. Comfy, sexy, stretchy, actually so seamless that they don’t exist under clothing, and a fantastic deal… It’s sorcery, I’m convinced." —Ebony

Get a set of six from Amazon for $24.98+ (available in women's sizes XS–4X and 10 color combos).

Check out a TikTok of the dry shampoo in action. 

Promising review: "Will be buying again!! This is a fantastic product. I have incredibly thin hair that gets very oily very easily. This is the first product that I’ve tried that actually works! I am so very happy!" —NaNa KeKe

Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in seven versions, a refill pack, and in a pack of two or three). 

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 $12.99+ (available in women's sizes M–XXL and in three colors or multicolor packs). 

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).

Megababe is a woman-owned small business!

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. This is my second time purchasing this product an it will not be my last. I love that I’ve found this company that has such great practical solutions to many of my feminine issues." —JMJA Family

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 — lasted 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 chafing cream, even my husband has used this!" —aberfitchgr534

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

Promising review (from Shark Ninja): "This is my new obsession. I’ll carry it with me all summer. It gets very hot in the desert where I live, and this is a lifesaver. The fan itself is powerful, and you can adjust the level to your needs. The dry-touch mist gets very cold without adding humidity to you, so you can target it just where you need it. The 'InstaChill' cooling plate is icy cold, and just touching it to me cools my whole body down instantly. The attachments are easy to change, and it comes with extra wicks for the misting attachment. It’s very fast-charging with a USB cord. The digital dial is simple to use. I simply love this and will be using it all the time!" —Colleen S

Get it in rose gold from Amazon for $99.99+ (available in two styles), from Macy's for $149.99 (available in four colors), or from Best Buy for $129.99 (available in five colors).

Promising review: "This neck fan is awesome!!! It fits comfortably around the neck and is very lightweight. Love that the vents are all the way around so you feel the cold air around your whole neck. Cools you down quickly. Would buy again!!! If you are reading this... Do not hesitate to buy this, get one now before they run out." —Kathy Jones

Get it from Amazon for $25.99+ (available in eight colors).

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 $16.99+ (available in 12 multicolor combos). 

This set includes a flat sheet, a fitted sheet, and two pillowcases.

Coop Sleep Goods is a small business specializing in pillows, pillowcases, and sleep products. 

Promising review: "These are the only sheets I buy. They are soft, cool, and wash up well. They don’t shrink, and the fit is generous. Worth it." —Waterlily

Get a full sheet set from Amazon for $119.20 (available in sizes twin–California king and in white or gray).

Bonus: it has a heating mode that warms like a sauna for the winter and is great for sleepers with chronically cold feet.

BedJet is a small business that creates climate control bed systems.

Promising review: "Look. I live in Phoenix right now. It gets hotter than hell here. It's disgusting. Sleeping during the summer is a nightmare. It was 90 degrees the other night, and it's not even the worst of the summer. The BedJet actually kept us cool and comfortable all night!!!! It is silent, and it works incredibly. I know it's expensive, but it is worth every penny if you sleep hot or live in a godforsaken place like Phoenix. Other benefits: it was incredibly easy to set up. It fits under my bed, and my comforter hides the tube. It's like it's not even there. The remote is super nifty. And it even CAME WITH BATTERIES. When does that happen these days? I literally don't have a single negative to report. I have already texted my friends and family to spread the gospel of BedJet." —Kaley Repp

It's machine washable (just remember to take out the ice sheets), and you can also purchase additional flexible ice sheets to keep in your freezer so you always have one ready to go.

FlexiFreeze is a small business that specializes in using pure water ice sheets in its cooling products.

Promising review: "I bought this vest to keep cool while working with my bee hives, wearing bee suits that tend to be very hot, and it works great. I have only used it once so far, but I worked my bees for about an hour and stayed very cool the entire time. When I took my vest off, the ice was still frozen. I would highly recommend this vest for anyone who struggles in the heat." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $134.99+ (available in five colors).

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. I should have gotten more than one, so I always have one ready to go when the one I'm using melts. I 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).

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.

Blissy is a small business that specializes in creating pillowcases, sleep masks, and more that help people get a good night's sleep.

Promising review: "Love love love it. Feels great on the face. I’m hot all the time, and it’s definitely much more comfortable than the 100% cotton 800 thread pillowcases I’ve been using. I will buy these from now on." —Rite

Get it from Amazon for $58.87+ (available in four sizes and 27 styles/colors).

Listen, if you're a sweaty sleeper or you live in a warm climate like me (because unfortunately, the desert was the place I could afford to buy a house), I'm telling you, you're gonna want to have like three or four sets of these, so you never have to go a night without them during the warmer months. The fabric is sooooo lightweight and silky on your skin. And as a plus girlie, I love that it's super stretchy and adaptive to my body. It is a tad on the sheer side, but if you go to bed with someone, I don't think they'll be mad at that fact (lol). I just probably wouldn't wear it without a bra to pick up the mail, if you know what I mean. And then, you know, anything that's a bottom with pockets is an automatic add-to-cart for me. But that being said, I wouldn't say the pockets are structured enough to carry a ton of stuff or super heavy stuff — like probs just your phone and some lip balm, your AirPods, or a small snack. But love how comfy they are!

Promising review: "Very soft and comfortable. Breathable for the warmer nights!" —Morgan I

Get it from Tommy John for $99 (originally $110; available in women's sizes XS–XXL and in dove heather or black).

Promising review: "Great summer PJs, especially if you live in a warmer climate. Breathable and soft fabric, and they have held up after several washes. I got the coral color, and it’s exactly as pictured. Also, the pockets are great to help me keep up with my phone!" —Jason Thomas

Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in women's sizes S–4XL and 20 colors).

Rooted Earth is a small business that specializes in creating botanical bath and body care with love and positive intentions for over 20 years.

Promising review: "I love this spray so much!! This is my second time ordering this!! I love this shop so much and everything in it!! This spray helps with hot flashes, on hot days, it keeps me cool and is so refreshing!!" —Teresa Heier-Ryals

Get it from Rooted Earth on Etsy for $9.99+ (available in three sizes).

Rollr is a small biz based in the UK 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 $43.80+ (available in four gemstone heads and four scents).

Promising review: "After trial and error of different deodorants, I found the one. Great product. It keeps me dry and odor free even in summer and it smells good. Love it!" —Paola

Get it from Amazon for $8.86+ (available in three scents and in a pack of two).

Promising review: "I use this product daily because my feet sweat a lot. It's completely transparent when applied, as long as you shake it before use. Otherwise, it creates a whitish film. It controls perspiration and doesn't dry out the feet. It lasts all day. It doesn't stain socks or shoes. It acts as a deodorant, and a bottle for daily use can last up to two months if used sparingly. It's totally worth it, and its transparent appearance even allows you to wear it in open-toed shoes. It also eliminates bad odors." —Mey

Get a three-pack from Amazon for $22.47.

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

Psst — it's also hypoallergenic, which means you won't have to worry about skin irritations or acne while using it!

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).

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

Promising review: "These work great under a bike helmet to keep the sun off your head and provide sweat protection. As a bald man, this is a necessity when biking to stay dry and provide relief from the sun without having to lather on sunscreen." —Camping Man

Get it in black or blue from Amazon for $6.99+ (also available in 25 double or triple multicolor/multi-pattern packs).

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.

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 

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).

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!

Carpe is a small biz that creates sweat protection products for the whole body.

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).

BodyGlide is a small business that specializes in chafe-preventing personal care products. 

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).

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

Get it from Amazon for $11+ (available in three sizes and a two-pack).

You just want to make sure you place it in the freezer two hours before you plan to use it. And BTW, this bad boy can also be popped in the microwave for when you're looking for soothing heat relief!

Promising reviews: "I know the intended use of this is not for menopause, but I love this for controlling hot flashes, especially in the middle of the night. I put it on and can go back to sleep without feeling like I am on fire." —charlotte gassman

"I suffer from chronic migraines and have been looking for an ice pack that stays in place and won’t slip off when drifting to sleep. This has literally changed my life. It is worth every penny. It does not squeeze your head and is very comfortable." —Kissa

Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in three colors).
