If you want to look your best at the gym and you’re not doing crazy cardio, some sort of cheek color is a must. The harsh, often cold light of the gym tends to make anyone with even slightly fair skin appear sallow and pale. Go for balance and delicate highlights, but definitely boost your cheeks!

On the other hand, this product can be skipped completely if you are a fan of Zumba, running, or heavy strength-training.

Lips

Just like cheeks, lips are best stained. Think about it: you’ve just wrapped up a grueling half-hour session of Pilates and you’re sweating like crazy. You go to wipe your face and wind up leaving a long pink smudge on the back of your hand!

If you do go with lipstick over lip stain, pick a natural color that’s close to the normal hue of your lips. That way, if any should come off, it will be much less noticeable, and easier to touch up.

Clean Up

After your workout, a complete wash is best. Cleanse your face thoroughly with mild soap and water to remove makeup and clean out your pores. Of course, this isn’t always possible if you are running back to work or between appointments.
