I understand completely! I limit the lotion on my arms and legs, because that tends to make me sweat more for some reason - maybe because it's blocking my pores?

There is moisture wicking clothing now; you can find it in sporting goods stores. However, when I play racquetball I sweat like crazy. When I wore a wicking shirt I stayed dry, but I felt a little hotter. Sweat is meant to help you cool off. The clothing doesn't keep you from sweating, it just keeps you dry.

Good luck!
