Reducing sweating in latex clothes - 2/21/2012 1:30:14 PM

So, I've kind of always liked the look of latex clothes. After finally buying some pieces, I've found I really like the feel of it too : ) One problem is the sweating : ( I've seen pictures/videos of people in semi-public places wearing latex without puddles forming under them, and I'm wondering if there's any tricks to it. Do they dehydrate themselves? Just naturally don't sweat? Careful to stay in really cold areas? Just careful to hide that they're sweating in the pictures? Guessing, I'm going to be out of luck in regards to this as google was failing me, but figured it's worth a shot asking here.

I've often wondered that too. I don't have any latex interest but my natural curiosity leads my brain down strange paths.

Every time I see a photo, or read a mention, of wearing latex......I wonder about this.

i LOVE wearing latex & sweating inside of it(dont ask me why). i usually rub myself & the inside of the clothes with baby powder. eventually your body gets used to the heat(like going outside in the summer). never had a problem with sweat puddles.....

That is what I was thinking, some babypowder, cornstarch, or rubbing with those big white chalky chunks of aluminum salt you can get at the healthfood store for use on feet and underarms as the primary deoderant ingredient in spray.

Never let them see you sweat. Practice pinching your buttocks, so that the sweat sorta runs down your ass.

One option is to use an antiperspirant. Not on just the underarms but whereever the latex is covering. This will greatly cut back on the sweat.

Another option is to wear loose fitting latex. You will not sweat as much due to the air flow with loose fitting clothing.

Are there particular kinds of antiperspirant I should use that are safe for latex?

The main active ingredient in Antiperspirants are:

•Aluminum chloride
•Aluminum zirconium tricholorohydrex glycine
•Aluminum chlorohydrate
•Aluminum hydroxybromide

These are salts. Salts are used to mix with the sweat on the skin and this forms a gel. That gel blocks the sweat pore on the skin and greatly reduces the flow of sweat coming out of the pore.

These salts typical will not harm latex or rubber. Latex is degraded by petrolum products. Most antiperspirants use water as a transport medium or alcohol. But both the water and alcohol evaporate fairly quickly. That evaporation is why the antiperspirant feels cool after you put it on. I use a stick type most of the time when I do not want to sweat.

And always wash your latex after you are done wearing it.

Hope this was helpful.

I need to update my reply to include a SAFETY statement.

I would not recommend covering more than 60% to 70% of your body with an Antiperspirant. If your body cannot release any sweat it will have a toxic effect on the body.

Sweat is not just salt and water. It is composed of salt, water, potassium, lactic acid, ammonia and other fatty acids. When the body cannot release these items through the sweat glands it builds up in the body and becomes toxic. How quickly the toxic build occurs depends on your physical activity.

Geisha girls who used to paint their whole bodies with a body paint would often faint or collapse. This was due to the toxic effect of blocking all the skin's sweat pores. They quickly learned to not paint their backs and areas people could not see to prevent this from happening. Modern day Geisha use friendly body paints that do not block the sweat pores.

You are welcome

I have been wearing latex for over 20 years. Getting the information is pretty hard. It tends to be a rare fetish on the Domme side. Sub side and the CD/trans generations are more into it.

People also use powder. The powder helps to get dressed in the latex but does not prevent you from sweating. The powder does however absorb some the sweat. But only a little.

To me , sweating is part of the latex experience. It isn't that you sweat more, but more that the sweat doesn't evaporate. So it drips especially in your ass crack ;). For me , having my girl starting to drip while in a tight latex dress and heels is very hot :).

Its called(in my mind) the Squuuush factor, and part of the pleasure.
wear rubber panties n see how wel it keeps you from dripping:) > Part of the playtime is washing off the powder or spray(pjur dressing spray used to be brilliant) and stripping down to bare skin and warm towels after. Someone who likes to lick off rubbery tasting sweat is also a good idea;)
just my two cents.
Now I need some alone time
phew

I don't really mind the sweating. It's just there's times when it's prudent not to be, and I was wondering how it seemed some people were able to deal with it. I never really use antiperspirant so I didn't realize in could be effective in such cases.

Klima makes a hard core antiperspirant for people with hyper hydrosis severe sweating) the strongest you use at night... not in the morning... i think that it could be an answer for occasional use for those who dont care to sweat as much, but like the latex look/feel

Personally I like the squishy factor :) Its a nice warm squishy rubber feel. And the salty rubbery sweat is fun the lick off even if I am still fully rubbered :)

Agreed. It sort of reenforces the animalistic desires that this lifestyle is about, or maybe I should say takes them to another level. Only for those who have an spprecistion for fetish of course.
I will admit I have come in contact with some women who have complained about this before. For a sub male...sort of appropriate if you ask me...LOL.

I was just about to mention this... thing is, sweating is your body's natural reaction and its meant to protect you -- its not a great idea to use antiperspirant on places other than where its designed to be used...

I wear latex and pvc and don't have any trouble.. but its a medium length skirt and short sleeved shirt -- most of the time and I don't sweat much. I also don't wear it in the middle of july... it helps if its not a cat suit. I also wear a ton more pvc, in all varieties.. and I use a bit of baby powder with that... but its looser than latex. Baby powder is your best bet...

Here is a thought. During lengthy medical procedures when I must be gloved up I first slip on a pair of fabric gloves to put under the surgical gloves. It adds a little air space between skin and latex-like air barrier. I still perspire and soak the fabric gloves but it does help a little. At this time I am using what I found around the house - photographic film-handling gloves. They are not cotton but some kind of poly. No drink-up factor at all except for in the airspace they provide. Next I will try cotton. So in an experiment you could try on a thin layer-like catsuit of fabric under your latex to see if this helps you feel more comfortable for longer.

Doc :o)
