A member asked:

As soon as i apply any kind of moisturizer or lotion on my face, i start sweating and the lotion melts away. what do you suggest i do?

Sweating: Excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) is a condition that most often affects the palms of the hands, soles of the feet, face, and underarms. Dripping-wet skin can cause embarrassment and interfere with daily activities. Treatment can be with otc meds such as sweat block and certaindri or prescription medication.
