Gym Kit: Skincare Essentials

Friday, 14 June 2013

Being back at home means my gym routine is non-existent and my love for sugary treats is at it's peak – also with it being my birthday week cupcakes for breakfast is becoming the norm.

With my trip coming to an end, my mind is firmly set on how I am going to shift myself back into gym mode.  When working out “how I look” isn't a priority (my normal gear is an ASOS menswear t-shirt, a pair of leggings finished off with my old-school P.E. trainers - hardly fashion forward) but my skin has to be fresh, clean and 100% make-up free! For some the thought of going make-up free is not even on the menu but for me, I can’t stand the thought of my tinted moisturiser running down my face and clogging my pores!

My skincare routine for the gym is super quick and only requires two products: Simple Make-up Wipes and Korres Milk Proteins Foaming Cream. This combo works great for my eczema prone skin and removes face and eye-make-up without dehydrating my skin which is exactly what I need for the gym – I promise you there is no overpowering smell or tightness of the skin after using these products! Finish off with a moisturiser of your choice; I would go for the Dr Hauschka Rose Day Cream

Post workout I get out my more serious skincare products - if you work-out in the morning make sure that your skin is prepped well for your day make-up and if you prefer to work-out in the evening make sure that you apply a good night-cream after cleansing.

Now I think it’s time to polish off this last bit of cake and prepare my workout routine for next week!
