To begin, wearing makeup to the gym is not a good idea.
The reason why is pretty obvious: exercise makes you sweat and if you’re wearing makeup, it melts off, clogging up your pores.
Just FABULOUS.
If you really can’t face going to the gym without your face on, then there’s one really simple rule you should keep in mind.
Avoid foundation at all costs because as mentioned above, you’re only going to end up with problem skin and pesky breakouts.
You’re probably wondering what you’re supposed to do when your go-to base is out of the question.
The answer is simple: opt for a tinted moisturiser or a light concealer to mask redness and or blemishes.
Chatting to Style Caster, celebrity makeup artist Rosie Johnson said:
“Very light and breathable makeup is going to your best option for the gym. I would skip foundation altogether”.
Personally, I wouldn’t opt for makeup when exercising, despite the fact my skin is far from perfect but if you really must, keep this tip in mind.
