Here are 11 skincare and beauty essentials you’ll need to keep your skin from breaking out after a long and hard session at the gym.

December 5, 2016

When it comes to packing your bag for the gym, it’s always good to remember that your skincare products are a lot more important than your makeup products.

11 Beauty Essentials To Always Pack In Your Gym Bag For Better Skin
1. Makeup Remover
image

If you’re heading there after work, use makeup remover sheets or micellar water to get rid of makeup in a jiffy.

Simple Cleansing Wipes, $15.90 and Sensibio 500ml, $40.90

2. Deodorant
image

This will make sure you smell fresh even after a sweaty sesh. If you’re skopping the shower at the gym (just because showers at home are better), we suggest using the aerosol type to prevent bacteria transfer.

Nivea Anti-perspirant 150ml, $7.95

3. Shampoo or Dry Shampoo
image

We don’t know about you, but we certainly dont enjoy going to bed with sweaty, greasy hair. Which is why a shampoo is a must-used after a workout. Alternatively, take a leaf ouf of Khloe Kardashian’s book and opt for dry shampoo to achieve fresh-smelling hair almost instantly.

4. Body Wash

Buy a travel-sized body wash or simply pump the one you have at home into small containers to bring to the gym. It doesn’t matter if you’re showering at the gym or at home — don’t skip out on it because the sweat and bacteria buldup can cause bacne (back acne).

5. Facial Cleanser

In the same way you’d clean your body after a session at the gym, it’s important to get rid of the sweat and impurities on your face too.

6. Face Mist

Use it as a refresher during or after your workout. The best thing yet, you can use a facial mist as a toner and then spritz it on top of your moisturiser for an extra dose of hydration.

7. Moisturiser

Yes, you lose water when you sweat, and that’s not limited to your body. In fact, your face can get dehydrated too! While drinking electrolytes-packed water is essential, replenishing the hydration in your skin with a moisturiser is equally important too.

8. Hair Ties

Get your hair out of your face while you exercise. Not only is it less distracting for you, it also reduces the possibility of you hitting the person next to you with your hair.

Hair elastics, $3.90 for pack of 10, by H&M

9. Tinted Moisturiser
image

Need to run an errand after a gym session but don’t want to go around bare-faced? Simple slap on a tinted moisturiser to covered redness while retaining your post-workout glow.

10. Lip Balm
image

Lip care is always important, which is why you should always have a lip balm with you, whether you’re hitting the gym or not.

Lip balm, $4.50, by Mentholatum

11. Wet Wipes
image

We’re not talking about makeup removers but anti-bacterial wipes. Most reputable gyms have pretty good hygiene standards but let’s be real — they’re not gonna clean the handles of exercise bikes after each use.

Which is why these come in handy to eliminate grossness.
