USE SUNSCREEN:
Most of you would like to go jogging or walking or wish to spend some time doing Yoga in an open environment. The open environment would have a chance to affect your skin and so you have to apply sunscreen. Using sunscreen is a must thing while you step out of your home to enjoy an open-air workout session.
TRY TO SKIP THE MAKEUP:
Even though it is well-known to many, some would blindly do the mistake of wearing makeup. When you apply your foundation and start your workout session for the day, the heat from your body would automatically makes the pores enlarge and secrete more oil as well. You do not wish for an oily face, right? So, wash your face right before starting your exercise and also wash it once after your workout session.
GO FOR SOOTHING WARM WATER:
When it comes to washing your face after a heavy workout session, you should never choose to wash it with hot water but with soothing warm water. This is because hot water would make your skin dry and even leads to skin irritation. Who else would need it?
STOP TOUCHING YOUR FACE OFTEN:
If you are working out at a gym, then try not to touch your face or skin during a workout. Since the gym equipment could have harmful bacteria clinging to it, it could lead to skin infections and even paves the way to new breakouts. So, it is good if you use a hand or workout towel to wipe out the sweat and wash your hands after your workout session. However, you should be extra careful in this pandemic situation and never miss washing your hands after a workout at the gym.
CHANGE THE SWEATY CLOTHES AS SOON AS POSSIBLE:
Like no makeup, it is a mandatory thing too. You should remove your sweaty clothes as soon as possible as they would consist of bacteria and sweat and dirt. So, it is better if you change your clothes at the gym if you have a dressing room at your gym. Even if it is not available, make sure to change it as soon as you could when you reach your home. If you are working out in your home, you should also change your clothes once you complete your workout.
TRY TO USE BODY WIPES:
When you leave your sweat to dry on your body, it would of course make its way inside your pores and cause many skin issues. So, you could at least use a cleansing wipe to wipe away the sweat in the areas like your chest and armpits until you reach home. And once you reached home, just enjoy your shower immediately.
