Hot fun in the Summertime
Jeremiah's recent post about butt sweat (aka SWASS) got me thinking. I love warm weather for multiple reasons...I can lay out in the sun and get some good face time, I can wear a tank top and have it be socially acceptable, flip flops...lots of reasons.But I HATE sweating. I'm what's categorized as a "heavy sweater" (more of a wool than a cashmere) When it gets hot out, I sweat from every pore, and at times can be annoying.
But two products have revolutionized summer for me...I discovered both while I was in college. The first is Certain Dri. This is prescription strength anti-perspirant that is applied at bedtime. It completely eliminates underarm sweat, making your pits dry and embarrassment factor to a minimum. This works like no other product I've ever had...if you suffer from pit sweat, i recommend checking out your local Walgreens for this miracle product.
The second product, every guy is familiar with, and everyone knows the best way to use it to combat SWASS and other "south of the border" moistness. That's right, Gold Bond Medicated Powder. This has become a staple of my day from May to October. The best way I've heard it described is "It's like tiny angels blowing on your balls." I apologize for the mental images that are now in all of your heads, but when you think about it, it's a good description.
Here's what others are saying about Gold Bond:
"All the guys in my fraternity use Triple Action Gold Bond Medicated Powder- it's a daily experience! We even fight over the green bottles when we run low. I used to use J&J Baby Powder, but it doesn't even compare to Gold Bond. Gold Bond gives you that tingling sensation...it cools...it keeps you dry all day. I love my Gold Bond, man! Send us some T-shirts!" -Peter Dellacrosse, University of Maryland
So these two products get Philthy's Seal of Approval. Enjoy your time in the summer sun!
Konichiwa!

I hate it when people use LOL. Mostly, because they really aren't laughing out loud. However, when I read about Goldbond feeling like "tiny little angels blowing on your balls", I really did laugh out loud. To myself. I hardly ever do that.
Phil, that quote made me LOL.
LYAS,
Jeremiah
One question Phil:
I checked out this deodorant business of yours and it says that it can't be put on after shaving. How do you deal with this?
Also, I did LOL with your angels/blowing comment...and I only say LOL when I actually LOL'd immediately prior to typing "LOL."
Teresa
good question teresa. I actually shave my entire body in the morning, and since this anti-perspirant is applied at night, you should have no problems.
