            How to wear makeup to the gym

            Going to the gym isn’t just about working out to feel your best. Sometimes a trip to the gym can be a full on fashion show! When you feel like you look great, your workouts always go better! Now, obviously, makeup is optional when heading to get your sweat on, but if you do fancy a bit of glam for your sesh, we have the best tips to look flawless without compromising your skin- or your gains!

            The Perfect Base

            You want to start off with a good light-weight moisturiser followed by a mattifying or gripping primer to ensure your makeup doesn’t slide off your face on your first set of Russian twists!

            Following that, you want to avoid plastering your face with full coverage foundations and heavy powders as they will leave you feeling cakey and clogged once you’ve worked up a sweat! This can lead to breakouts as the powders can end up sitting in your open pores. Not the vibe! (Don’t worry if you’ve had a breakout, we’ve got you covered with our spot patches).

            Tinted moisturiser is the way to go for your base, less is more when it comes to fitness makeup! It will give you an even skin tone and a glow that will catch your eye when you’re walking past the mirrors.

            TOP TIP: you can water down your everyday foundation with some moisturiser to make it  less heavy if you have a signature formula that you love!

            Little Details

            Grab yourself a trusty concealer for those small blemishes and under the eyes to give you that ‘Ready to smash this next set out’ look.

            Removal

            It is very important to remove your makeup after a gym session to prevent breakouts and poor skin health! Use a cleanser and a micellar water to ensure you get all the sweat and nasties off your skin. A toner is always a good addition to any skincare regime to even out your skin texture! Finish off your post workout routine with a glowy moisturiser, a light formula if you an early bird or swap out for a night cream if the gym is the last thing on your agenda.

            TOP TIP: Make sure you keep hydrated throughout the day to keep your skin supple and free of blemishes. This will reduce the need for heavy base makeup and break the breakout / cover up cycle!
