Bare With Me: Do You Wear Makeup at the Gym? - Makeup and Beauty Blog

What you'll most often notice in my gym bag — reliable lip balm, a adept sunscreen, face wipes and, of course, my lock!

Health is something that often gets lumped in with beauty, and for a while I'd been toying around with the idea of joining a gym. I've washed a number of dwelling house workouts, the virtually recent existence the Beachbody series, and I had some mild success with it, merely at this betoken in my life, I really demand to exist at the gym. I need to get out of my head, and get back to the gym and enjoy working out for myself.

Today I wanted to talk well-nigh the thought of wearing makeup at the gym and ask what you lot do. I'm personally staunchly against it, mainly considering my skin would stage a insurrection. I have a tendency to break out even when I simply rub my face the wrong way (I'grand not even kidding!), so rubbing my confront when it's hot, sweaty, and total of makeup is only non an option for me.

But I understand the appeal of wearing makeup to the gym. On a recent visit I didn't see too many done-upwards ladies, but I did run across someone with fully washed eyebrows (I could not even handle that).

One of the things I find so frustrating is that women are often pressured to exist 110% on all the time, fifty-fifty when we're just trying to make it a workout.

I understand the convenience. If you're working out early on in the morning, you lot tin easily put on a little makeup before an easy conditioning and just head to work after.

But many people feel that it's awful for your skin, and that you shouldn't article of clothing cosmetics that could clog your pores while you're working out. Your body tin can't cleanse itself of toxins if your pores are chock-full by your favorite foundation.

So why do we do it? Insecurities, convenience, because nosotros want to, or because we just don't retrieve it'south bad for us.

I'm still figuring out what my skin likes and needs from day to day, and I can say that while I'd encourage a girlfriend to go bare at the gym with me, I wouldn't discourage her from doing her thing if she wants to.

If I were to wear makeup at the gym, I'd have to take the road recommended by the makeup artist in this article. I'd go with some SPF (like the one I'm carrying in my gym bag), maybe a brow pencil, and some tinted lip balm, at the nearly.

What about you? Have you ever worn a full face to your favorite form, or practice you always get blank? Are there any situations when you absolutely won't wear whatever makeup at all? Let me know!
