You can also use it to set self-tanner, replace dry shampoo, and deodorize your shoes.
I know I have an unpopular opinion when I say that summer is my least favorite season. I’ve just never been able to enjoy hot weather. I’m far too concerned about how my hair is frizzing up, or I’m already sweating my deodorant off after an hour or two. (I swear, I’ve tried at least 20 brands within the last year alone!) So when even my antiperspirants tapped out, Megababe’s Body Dust stepped in and completely saved me.
This talc-free body powder features gentle ingredients like corn starch, lavender, chamomile, and aloe to soak up moisture while soothing irritation from head to toe. My biggest problem areas are my moist armpits and behind my knees, but I’m often faced with under-boob sweat that causes chafing, my thighs rubbing together under skirts, and my straps slipping and sliding all over my shoulders. With help applying this absorbing powder from Megababe’s oversized Dust Puff, I can pretty much get to every troublesome nook and cranny.

You can sprinkle the customer-favorite body powder virtually anywhere; not only has it stopped my bra from chafing me and soaked up sweat, but it has also kept my armpits, legs, and under-boobs shockingly dry. I noticed I was getting very sweaty on my lower back and my cleavage during a heatwave, but the Body Dust saved the day. I recently wore rubber sandals that irritated my feet. One dusting of this and my feet felt fresh again, and the obnoxious rubbing stopped.
According to the brand, you should apply it to dry skin for the best results. I can’t speak much to the longevity of it because I’ve only had to use it for a few hours at a time, but I don’t leave my house without applying the Megababe Body Dust. If you do happen to be on the go a lot, the powder also comes in an adorable 1.7-ounce bottle for portability.
The multi-use formula can also work in unexpected ways, like as a setting powder for your self-tanner, shoe deodorizer, and dry shampoo. I did use it in place of my favorite Crown Affair The Dry Shampoo during a trip, and it soaked up the oil without leaving residue in my dark hair. I’ll never let go of my dry shampoo, but I was so relieved to use this on my second-day hair when I forgot my go-to at home. At least that’s one less thing I can pack in my beauty bag.
The finish of the finely milled powder feels so smooth, and I’ve never noticed any kind of white cast or chalkiness after applying it. However, I always make sure to blend the formula into my skin to prevent the reveal of my beauty secret, either with the puffer or just my hands.
Thanks to Megababe Body Dust, at least I’m not spending the whole season feeling sticky and uncomfortable. Trust me, once you try it, you’ll wonder how you ever survived summer without it. I also found a few more shopper-loved essentials below.
