Sweating It Out

By Virginia Prescott on Thursday, July 31, 2008.

It’s been hot in New Hampshire, with temperatures in the 80s this past week. If you’ve been grunting around in the yard, sitting in traffic, or lounging on the beach, you’ve noticed it. And it’s usually not a big deal – you might seek out some shade, an air-conditioned room, or a cool glass of lemonade.

But what if that’s not enough? Our guest, Corrie Pikul, is a research editor for Elle in New York City, and was looking for relief from the heat of the office, streets and subway platforms. She’s a little more adventurous than most of us would be – trying five different anti-sweat techniques that go beyond the norm: clinical strength anti-perspirant, a drionic iontophoresis kit, sage leaves and black tea baths, anti-cholinergic medication, and Botox. Corrie wrote about her experiments for New York magazine.
