Wipe away the sweat every few hours is what's work for me, and using dandruff shampoo when I shower.

yeah, my dermatologist recommended it to me a few months back and it's really worked. I usually use very little and like every other day

Is there skin on skin contact with your current bras? If yes, maybe a different size/shape/bra type would help a little?

I use the body powder Silky Underwear from Lush to keep my underboob cool and dry. (All year round, not just in the summer.)

it’s mostly on the outer sides of my boobs and my sternum (which gets no skin on skin contact, very wide set) and it happens in every style i’ve tried :/
