3. Witch Hazel
Another powerful astringent that can help with excessive sweating is witch hazel. It can be applied directly to the skin in liquid form. Many people who have tried this remedy state that it can eliminate excessive sweating. Witch hazel has tannic acid in it. This is also found in sage and black tea. Tannic acid helps to constrict the sweat glands.
When the sweat glands are constricted they cannot produce as much sweat. This will reduce the amount of sweating that you experience. In order to use witch hazel, you will want to soak a cotton ball in it or use a cloth and dampen it with the witch hazel. Rub the cotton ball or the cloth under your arms to help reduce sweating. You can also use witch hazel on your palms and face and any other problem areas that you may be experiencing.
