Abstract

Our product is called Don’t Sweat It! This product has been developed by the G.L.A.M! team at Boise State with the help of chemists from the Boise State Science department. Our team came up with this product to help eliminate sweat stains from forming on clothing while simultaneously removing preexisting stains and blocking body odors. This idea came from wanting to create a product that people of all ages and from all different backgrounds and fields could use. Looking at this idea we discovered that a product like this had not been created yet, but it has the potential of reaching a wide market. Whether someone sweats a lot or an average amount, no one likes taking off a jacket or walking around in public with sweat stains. Through the use of this product, users can easily spray areas of their clothing that would normally show sweat and they would be protected for the entire day. While some may want to double up with deodorant, Don’t Sweat It! will also be scented to mask any body odor that forms during the day. While this spray is on the shirt, it will remove already formed sweat stains.
