I always assumed the way sweat cooled us was how the water on the outside of our skin cools off and in turn cools the skin down however I don’t get why the air that cools the sweat cant cool our bodies especially if our skin can heat that sweat just as fast or faster than the air can cool it.

The water on your skin doesn’t just cool off by touching the air, it evaporates. Water requires a lot of energy to turn from a liquid into a gas, and it takes some of that energy from your skin, reducing its temperature.
