The evaporation of the sweat is actually what cools you. The change from a liquid to a gas requires heat energy and it gets part of that heat energy from the skin, making the body feel cooler.
Perspiration takes excess heat from your body and releases it to the surface in moisture. A secondary mechanism continues to cool the body as the moisture evaporates from the surface of the skin. Cooling occurs in all types of climates but the evaporation mechanism works best in areas with low humidity because it exchange is more rapid.
well, during exercise, you tend to perspirate (sweat) and this will help you to loose the excess skin and weight that you know longer want. sweat usually turns up when you do a type of cardio respiratory endurance or intense workout. Sweat is good, it tells you that you are working yourself hard and improving your fitness.

The wind can make it feel cooler - wind chill.

A dehumidifier will make a home less humid by removing moisture from the air, which can make it feel more comfortable. However, a dehumidifier does not actually cool the air, so it may not make the temperature feel cooler.
Epinephrine can make you feel alert, increase your heart rate, and raise your blood pressure. It can also cause sweating, nausea, and trembling.
Bath salts do not make the water feel cooler, but they are designed to soften the water. This will result a less "harsh" feeling on your skin which may have felt cooler and softer to the touch.
A white shirt reflects sunlight, keeping you cooler than a dark shirt which absorbs sunlight and can make you feel warmer.
Slime feels cold to the touch because it has a higher thermal conductivity than air or your skin, which allows it to draw heat away from your body quicker, giving the sensation of coldness. Additionally, the water content in slime can make it feel cooler as it evaporates off the surface, similar to how sweating cools your skin.
Water can make you cooler through a process called evaporation. When water evaporates off your skin, it absorbs heat energy from your body, making you feel cooler. This effect is enhanced if the water is cool or if there is a breeze to help with evaporation.
Fans make you feel cooler by creating air movement that helps to evaporate sweat from your skin, which then cools down your body. This process helps to lower your body temperature and make you more comfortable in warm environments.
The moving air stream from a fan increases the rate of evaporation on the skin, which can make it feel cooler. The air movement also helps to dissipate body heat, making it feel cooler compared to still air.
Perspiring helps cool the body by releasing heat through the evaporation of sweat on the skin. As sweat evaporates, it takes heat with it, which helps lower your body temperature and can make you feel cooler.
Glass of water sweating is a physical process caused by condensation of water vapor from the air onto the cooler surface of the glass. It does not involve any chemical reactions.
