Can I wear makeup while working out?

In the fast-paced life of modern society, many people have begun to pay more attention to physical exercise in addition to work. In addition to running and playing ball, many people choose to go to the gym to get a membership card for fitness. We know that girls will sweat a lot when they exercise, but some girls want to wear makeup when they exercise. Will this have a bad effect on the skin on their face? Can you wear makeup when you exercise?

1. Can I wear makeup while exercising?

1. Affects perspiration

Products such as isolation and BB cream mostly use silicone oil and paraffin. In order to isolate dust, these raw materials are not absorbed by the skin and remain on the skin surface. As you exercise, the sweat in your body, carrying oil and various toxins, wants to rush out like a galloping horse, but it encounters a soft wall, and some of it is squeezed out and some of it is stuck inside.

2. Blocked pores

Human sweat contains oil and various acidic and alkaline substances, which have certain emulsifying and corrosive properties. Therefore, it is possible that a small amount of skin care products will be emulsified after sweating, and the chemical composition of the skin care products themselves will be changed. Then, during the breaks between exercises, although you have stopped sweating, your pores have not been closed in time, and some ingredients in skin care products that are harmful to the skin may be absorbed into the skin.

2. How to apply makeup for fitness

1. Replace the heavy base makeup and eye makeup with a light creamy or cushion-like base makeup and an inner eyeliner;

2. When doing aerobic exercise that causes a lot of sweating, try not to use makeup and just lock in moisture and keep your skin moisturized. If you really can't give up, choose a tinted cream, which can make your skin smooth and look good without looking like makeup;

3. For soothing exercises such as yoga and Pilates, you can choose to wear light makeup, mainly base makeup, eyebrow makeup, inner eyeliner and lipstick;

3. Notes

During exercise, metabolism speeds up, sweat and oil secretion increases, and pores dilate. Facial primers can clog pores and cause skin problems, and it's embarrassing to have your makeup come off or stain your exercise gear. Therefore, more attention should be paid to cleansing and skin care before and after exercise, and foundation should be kept as light as possible or omitted.
