Hello!

There is no reason to worry as every individual has different number of sweat glands at different regions and this is genetically determined.

Do not use any cosmetics or creams or blocking agents when you exercise. Wash your face with a mild soap and lots of water and if you are jogging outdoors then you cannot help as you may apply some moisturizer or sun block. Try during early morning and late evening without applying any moisturizer or cream.

Take care!
