Article: Sweat is the natural reaction that your body has to becoming overheated, so staying cool is the simplest way to stop sweating. Turn down the thermostat to make your space cooler, if you can. You can also use a fan to stay cool. For example, keep a fan at your workstation to blow on your face. When you're on the go, you can take a portable fan. This allows you to blow cool air on your face, even on the hottest of days. After washing your face, apply the astringent to a cotton ball or pad, then dab it over your face. Pay special attention to your temples and forehead near the hairline. You can then continue your skincare routine. You can use the astringent in the morning and evening. If your skin becomes irritated, reduce or discontinue use. You can find an astringent over-the-counter at a drug store or online. Check the ingredient list for tannins. For example, witch hazel is a common astringent that contains tannins. It will temporarily block your sweat glands from producing sweat. Most people apply antiperspirant at night before bed. However, for facial sweating you may prefer to apply it in the morning after washing your face. Don't get the antiperspirant in your eyes, nose, or mouth. You may want to cover the center of your face when you apply the product to protect it, such as with a towel. Talk to your doctor before using an antiperspirant on your face. Facial sweating often starts along your scalp. A dry shampoo can help you clean your hair and scalp even if you don't have time to take a shower. It will remove sweat residue and help you stay clean longer. Hold the dry shampoo about 8 inches (20cm) from your head. Starting at the front of your part, spray 2in (5.1cm) sections of your hair, moving from your hairline to the nape of your neck. Massage the dry shampoo to evenly distribute it. You can carry dry shampoo with you throughout the day for touch-ups. This helps manage your excessive facial sweating. If you get extra sweaty during exercise, you might carry the dry shampoo in your gym bag. Caffeine is a common culprit behind excessive sweating, and it can make your sweat smell worse. Skip coffee, soda, and caffeinated tea if you want your face to stay dry. If you love coffee, you could try switching to decaffeinated coffee. Avoid hot beverages when you're sweating. Drink 8 cups (1,900ml) of water a day to stay hydrated throughout the day. Spicy foods can make you sweat more. Additionally, they can intensify the smell of your sweat. Avoiding these foods is an easy way to limit how much sweat your body produces. Stay away from dishes that contain peppers, including pepper sauces like harissa and sriracha. Even black pepper adds spice. Instead, look for dishes that are seasoned with herbs like basil, thyme, or rosemary. You can do your relaxation techniques to help you stay calm during moments you're more likely to sweat. For example, you might use a relaxation technique before giving a big presentation at work. Here are some great ways to relax: Meditate to calm your mind and lower your heart rate. This can help you calm down before a big meeting or after an upsetting situation occurs. Do yoga daily to keep your stress levels under control. Start your day with a short yoga practice, or use it to calm down after work. Over time, it will help you maintain a calm demeanor. Do breathing exercises to calm down when you feel stressed. For example, you can use them to calm down in traffic or just before you give a presentation. This will help you manage your sweat while at work or school. You can remove your outer layers to cool down before you start sweating. For example, wear a cardigan or blazer that you can remove.

Article: In general, male cichlid fish have larger dorsal fins on their backs than their female counterparts. If you have multiple cichlids, look at the size of their fins when they are next to each other to identify which is the male and which is the female. Examples of cichlid fish include tilapia, angelfish, oscars, and discus. During the springtime, look at the forehead, gills, and pectoral fins of your fish. If you see small clusters of bumps in these areas, your fish is most likely a male goldfish. Don't wait too long, however, because these bumps are only present during the springtime, and will disappear when goldfish breeding season is over in the ear summer. The bumps can be various sizes, colors, and shapes, but tend to be concentrated in a few small areas on the fish. Male pleco fish can exhibit aggressive behavior toward other fish. Keep an eye out for plecos that swim quickly toward other fish that come near them to scare them off. If you have an aggressive pleco, it's most likely a male. Common names of pleco fish include algae suckers, janitor fish, and suckermouth catfish. Toward the back of the fish, near the tail fin, you might be able to see a small fin in the shape of a triangle. This is called an "anal fin" and can be used for sexual reproduction. It might be hard to see this fin on smaller fish, so get your magnifying glass out if you have to! In addition to mollies and guppies, you can use a triangular anal fin to identify male swordtails, platies, and wags.
