I'm not sure what you mean by "slimy"? Sweaty?

I don't live in a humid climate and have only vacationed in it once and that was back east. If I lived in it I would have to move.

I don't understand what you mean, either.

Having thyroid conditions and diabetes causes lots of sweating and with the added joy of menopause hot flashes which seem to never go away I can actually spray water out of my scalp like a water pistol I swear. I shake my head and it is like a dog in a sprinkler lol. We do have a lot of heat and humidity here though. If you wear any kind of lotions at all in humid weather and are prone to heavy sweating it can make you seem slimy I guess do you use lotions? I can not use anything like that in the summer. I do use a lot of witch hazel on cotton pads on my face and sometimes use them on my arms. It is very cooling and helps with the sweating.

My face gets super oily in the heat, plus the sweating, ugh.
Is that what you mean?

I cannot handle humidity at. all. Of course, in the summer here it is like 100 percent humidity on any nice days. I don't remember it being like that when we were kids, but we were always in the pool. My face feels oily and sticky, my hands get clammy, I hate it. Us newts need to stick together LOLOL!

i've always had problems with heavy sweating. After my kidney transplant, I started getting hot flashes. The docs thought it was menopause, but it turned out my Thyroid was overactive. Had a complete thyroidectomy, plus three out of four parathyroid glands removed. I still sweat. The only thing that helps me is a shower. I sometimes take two a day.

Sorry for the delay in response, we left early Friday morning for a camping trip. I will try to explain better: my entire body is damp all the time when it's humid. It's not really sweating...It doean't even have to be hot, I am just clammy, it honestly makes me insane. I DO NOT use any lotions when it's humid, only powder. My skin is typically dry. Help.....???

Maybe stay inside with the AC running to dry the air? Humidity makes my lawn furniture and me damp too, but we can't control the relative humidity :-)

I will not camp in the spring or summer because of the heat, bugs and snakes. Too many people there too!

I sweat like a horse because I am outside most of the day. I try to tell myself that it is healthy....toxins leaving my body....but, in reality, I have to remind myself to stay hydrated. I was out in the middle of the day a couple of days ago....my husband was working on the brush hog (tractor mower) and needed me to hand him this or that and since the hydraulics on the old tractor wasn't working, to stand on the lever he made out of a 2 x 6 and some concrete blocks. I was out for about an hour and hadn't eaten anything. When I came in, I was worn out but okay but then I got so weak that I went to bed for a couple of hours. It really knocked me for a loop.

I know what you mean, but I have no solution. I do have sympathy! :)

Just came from DC and it was far more humid and far far hotter than Nashville. I think it has more to do with weather than it does area of the country.

Have you tried corn starch instead of , I assume, baby powder? I think I know what you mean by clammy skin. Cool and moist but not sweaty? You might check web,nd for some insight.

I use Johnsons baby powder, it is now made with cornstarch. It does work, I just don't always want to be white as a ghost, lol!

I guess I was hoping someone who has this same problem could suggest a supplement / vitamin or something.....ugh, old age & post menopause :(

The word might be clammy , which would be like a bi-valve, rather than an amphibian. Haha.

Be sure that you're drinking plenty of water during the day!

Have you thought about going goth? Jet black hair and dark red lipstick:-)

Rhizo, maybe a little garlic butter as well? :-)

Perhaps you should see a doctor about this?
