To the gym girlies who can’t stand the thought of working out without some makeup on, the natural “no makeup” makeup look is for you.
For a natural, no makeup look in the gym focus on creating a healthy base and minimal products, that will enhance your features without looking heavy. It is really important for your skin health to avoid exercising without too much makeup on – to allow your skin to breathe. Blocking your pores with sweat and makeup will likely cause a break out.
The whole “clean girl” era is all about focussing on creating a minimal look that looks polished (with little effort).
The 3 basic steps for skincare prep
- Cleanse with a gentle face wash to remove any oil or dirt;
- Moisturise using a lightweight moisturiser to hydrate your skin
- SPF – if you are training outdoors, apply a sweat-resistant SPF
