Skin for People Who Train

Cleanse after training, not just in the morning. Sweat left to dry irritates skin and breaks out backs and shoulders.

Keep a separate face towel. Gym towels carry whatever the last machine had. A mist and a light moisturizer earn a permanent spot in the gym bag.

Shower as hot as you like, but finish lukewarm on the face. Hot water strips. Lukewarm cleans.

Back breakouts respond to the same salicylic wash you would use on your face. Use it in the shower and let it sit a minute.
