Send sweat stains packing

WHY DO SWEAT STAINS HAPPEN?

Let’s be clear, sweat itself is colourless. But when sweat patches get onto your clothes and dry, the salt, proteins and oils in your sweat can leave a residue. This normally disappears with machine washing.

But here’s where your problems can start. You might not do a wash for a few days, the sweat patches on your clothes are allowed to dry. And there could be a build-up of your anti-perspirant or deodorant product mixed in as well.

Over time, the aluminium in the product and the salt in your sweat combine to form those familiar (but unwelcome) yellow sweat stains. And they're harder to remove with normal machine washing.

If you’ve got white stains or marks on your clothes, these probably come from your deodorant or anti-perspirant. Some transfer easily onto your clothes and leave marks, especially if you’re dressing in a hurry and the product hasn’t had time to dry properly.

UNSEEN PROTECTION, UNMATCHED CONFIDENCE

But some don’t, like Sure's Invisible Range. These deodorants and antiperspirants are specially formulated to help prevent white marks on your clothes, giving you all-round sweat protection, for you and your clothes. Get to know a bit more about the Invisible protection you get from this range:

These are our top tips:

Use a biological washing powder

This will help to break down both the sweat patches and the product in the fabric.

Never iron a sweat stain or sweat patch

The heat will cause it to ‘set’, making it even harder to shift.

Soak the stain before washing

If the stain is really bad or it’s ‘set’, soak the area in a mixture of two parts white vinegar and one part water before washing – this will help break down the stain.

Don’t try this with delicate fabrics though.

Delicates need specialist care

With delicate fabrics like silk and lace, you may need professional cleaning to get rid of sweat stains.

The aluminium in the product and the salt in your sweat combine to form those familiar (but unwelcome) yellow sweat stains.

Wear loose-fitting, natural fabrics.

Natural fibres like cotton, linen and wool let the sweat evaporate from your body more easily.

Let your anti-perspirant deodorant dry before you dress.

Don’t be in too much of a hurry to whip on that favourite shirt.

Alternatively, use a ‘dry on application’ product like an aerosol.

Don’t overdo it.

Using too much anti-perspirant deodorant every day can lead to a build-up and cause yellow sweat stains.

Try a stronger anti-perspirant. This can help prevent overapplying.
