Summer? No sweat.

Just because you’ll be doing more, doesn’t mean you should be sweating more. Let’s face it, for many of us, sweating is a common hassle. Sure, a light glow on the forehead isn’t the worst thing in the world, but many ladies suffer from excessive sweating, to the point where we often keep a spare top in our handbags. (You know... just in case.)

Why women sweat

It’s quite simple – sweating is our body’s way of adjusting our internal body temperature. When we sweat, it’s actually just our body cooling down. Heat, exercise, stress, anxiety, hormonal changes and even eating certain types of food can all cause us to sweat.

While it may be natural, excessive sweating - also called “hyperhidrosis” - can be quite embarrassing and can often put a serious spanner in our social, sporting and work life.

If you’ve been dreading the approaching warmer temperatures however - fear not - as Shield for Women has recently launched its Clinical Protection range. As the name suggests, it’s been clinically proven to help protect you from those moments of excessive sweating, whatever the cause. Unapologetically strong, it offers odour and wetness protection for heavy sweating and is clinically verified to provide more than 2 times the protection of a basic antiperspirant.

How it works

We won’t bore you with too many details, but all you need to know is that Shield Clinical Protection uses revolutionary TRIsolid™ body responsive technology which contains 3 important components:

  • Clinical strength wetness protection (leaving you with dry underarms)
  • Patented encapsulated odour–fighting technology (leaving you smelling fresh)
  • Skin moisturising ingredient (leaving you with soft, healthy skin)

How to use it

To get the most out of Shield Clinical Protection, it’s advised that you use it at night before going to bed*. This is because while the body rests, your skin is more receptive to the TRIsolid™ formula, which leads to a deep layer of protection forming which is effective throughout the next day, even after a shower.

When using the product for the first time, turn the dial to the right several times until the product appears on the top surface of the applicator. The recommended dose is 2 clicks per underarm. Other than that, always apply to dry skin, store the product in a cool, dry place and get ready to say goodbye to wet, uncomfortable underarms. Do:More this summer, with a helping hand from Shield Clinical Protection.
