Red Carpet Secret: Don't Ever Let Them See You (Face) Sweat
Doing back-to-back interviews on the red carpet can cause even the most seasoned star's brow to dampen, but celebs are staying sweat-free and keeping makeup in place by applying clear, unscented deodorant to their face prior to makeup application to control sweating. Hey, we told you these were going to get weird.

The ingredients in antiperspirants that keep your underarms dry have the same effect when applied to the parts of the face that have the most sweat glands – the upper lip and hairline. Makeup artists recommend applying with a foundation brush in thin layers. Keep in mind that these products were not developed for use on facial skin, so they may cause reactions. Test it on a small patch of your skin first before you start swiping it all over your visage.
