Sweat now, glow later.
While exercise is great for your skin, all that sweat can clog pores, cause redness, and leave your face feeling irritated. Here's how to restore balance post-workout:
1. Cleanse Immediately
Use a gentle cleanser to remove sweat, dirt, and bacteria. Avoid over-exfoliating or hot water right after intense workouts.
2. Calm With a Sheet Mask
Pop on a mask to bring your skin back to life. Our favorites for post-workout:
-
Magic Moss Mask to detox and hydrate
-
Power Recovery Mask to repair and refresh
3. Moisturize Lightly
Opt for a lightweight moisturizer or serum with hyaluronic acid or peptides to support recovery.
4. Avoid Makeup Right After
Let your skin breathe for at least 30 minutes post-mask before applying makeup.
5. Don’t Forget Sunscreen
If you’re heading outdoors after the gym, apply SPF to protect your fresh, clean skin.
Quick Hack:
Keep a clean sheet mask and mist in your gym bag. It’s the easiest way to reset your skin after a sweaty session.
