Hitting the gym every day to work on your summer bod? We’re impressed! But while working out can put you in a great mood and make you feel awesome, your skin might not be looking so hot after you’re done getting sweaty. Before you up and leave the gym, though, it’s important to hit the locker room for a post-workout refresh. Here, we're sharing four skin care tips to follow after your next sweat sesh—so make sure to stock up on gym-friendly facial cleanser, moisturizer, and concealer. Just think of this guide as your mini gym-friendly skin care routine. We’re showing you how to cleanse your face post-workout and more below.
The locker room can be a zoo after a class lets out, but don’t let that deter you from cleansing your skin. Pack a no-rinse, gentle cleansing option like micellar water in your bag (along with a pack of cotton pads!) so that you can easily cleanse your face even if there’s no sink space or mirror in sight. Micellar water is powered by tiny micelles—oil molecules—that act as a magnet to lift dirt, oils, and makeup up and away from your skin. The L'Oréal Paris Micellar Cleansing Water Complete Cleanser for Normal to Oily Skin purifies and mattifies, the L'Oréal Paris Micellar Cleansing Water Complete Cleanser for Normal to Dry Skin hydrates and soothes, and the L'Oréal Paris Micellar Cleansing Water Waterproof – All Skin Types intensely purifies. Saturate a cotton pad with the micellar water of your choice and wipe the pad across your face. Another gym-friendly cleansing option: towelettes! The L'Oréal Paris RevitaLift Radiant Smoothing Wet Cleansing Towelettes are formulated with vitamin C and gently remove impurities (and even eye makeup!). Gently wipe your face with a towelette—there’s no need to rinse. And you’re officially ready to move on to the next step!
Once you’re done cleansing, it’s important to hydrate your complexion. So, make a little room in your gym bag for a moisturizer. We’re fans of water-based moisturizers. The L’Oréal Paris Hydra Genius Daily Liquid Care for Normal/Oily Skin, L'Oréal Paris Hydra Genius Daily Liquid Care for Normal/Dry Skin, and L'Oréal Paris Hydra Genius Daily Liquid Care for Extra Dry Skin are formulated with hyaluronic acid and aloe vera water to help provide long-lasting hydration.
Before you step outside, make sure to apply broad-spectrum sunscreen over your moisturizer. If you’re a morning workout person and need to be at the office by a certain time, opt for a moisturizer formulated with broad-spectrum sunscreen to help cut back on your post-gym skin care routine. The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends using an SPF of 30 or higher each day (rain or shine, since you can still get burned even on cloudy days!) and reapplying it every two hours. The L’Oréal Paris RevitaLift Bright Reveal Brightening Day Moisturizer SPF 30 is formulated with glycolic acid, vitamin C, Pro-Retinol, and broad-spectrum sunscreen. Of course, if you like to exercise outdoors (perhaps you’re training for a marathon), be sure to apply sunscreen before you work out to help protect your skin from UV rays as well.
Does your complexion tend to look red after working out? You don’t need to cover your face in lots of different heavy makeup products! Instead, use the L’Oréal Paris True Match™ Color Correcting Crayon in Green to mask the unwanted color. It’s formulated to help counteract redness for an even-looking complexion. To really balance your post-sweat look, top your green concealer off with the L’Oréal Paris True Match™ Super-Blendable Multi-Use Concealer and a quick allover swipe of the L’Oréal Paris True Match™ Lumi Glotion Natural Glow Enhancer. Together, these three products will counteract redness, brighten in all the right places, and add a next level glow. Have plans after the gym? Finish up your makeup routine with a quick swipe of mascara, like the L’Oréal Paris Voluminous Lash Paradise Mascara, and high-shine lip color, like the L’Oréal Paris Colour Riche Shine Lipstick.
