What kind of tight, sexy workout/dance material (specifically for pants) will best hide excessive sweating?

What kind of tight, sexy workout/dance material (specifically for pants) will best hide excessive sweating?Cotton blends will show moisture.

Look for synthetic blends:
Polyamide & Lycra
Nylon & Lycra
Polyester & Lycra

Note that Lycra and spandex are the same thing. Spandex is the generic term, Lycra is a specific brand of spandex.Cotton is a big no-no for sweaty activities. It shows up sweat stains badly.

I would consider some tights in a Lycra/Spandex blend that is designed to wick away moisture from the body. They will rarely ever show sweat stains and if you already have a rockin body, you will look fantastic in them. Of course lighter colors are more prone to being noticed in. I would recommend darker colors but in all seriousness, good quality lycra blend tights will hide sweat marks and will keep you the coolest.

Consider brands like Under Armor, Skins, 2XU and other high quality brands when you make your selection as they will have put high amounts of time and development in giving a superior product.

No I am not a reseller or work for these companies. But I do have a fair amount of these garments and swear by them personally.

Combining both aspects of leisure wear and work wear, they are a trendy garment ideal for younger markets.
