After an intense workout, your muscles aren’t the only things that need recovery—your skin does too. As sweat mixes with dirt and oil on your skin, it can clog pores and lead to breakouts, irritation, or even rashes. That’s why post-workout skincare is just as important as a good cool-down stretch.

 

Why Post-Workout Skincare Matters

When you exercise, your body temperature rises, causing your pores to open. This is great for releasing toxins, but it also makes your skin more susceptible to absorbing whatever’s on the surface. If you skip the post-workout cleanse, all that sweat, dirt, and grime can linger, leading to breakouts, dullness, and even premature aging *gasp*.

 

The Role of Exfoliation

After a workout, your skin is primed for exfoliation because the increased circulation boosts the skin's ability to regenerate. By gently exfoliating, you clear away dead skin cells, sweat residue, and any other impurities that might clog your pores. This helps to prevent post-workout breakouts and leaves your skin more smooth and radiant.

 

How to Use Our Exfoliators After a Workout

1. Start with a Clean Slate: Before exfoliating, cleanse your skin with a gentle, pH-balanced cleanser to remove the initial layer of sweat and dirt. This prepares your skin for more effective exfoliation.
2. Choose the Right Exfoliator: Opt for one that suits your skin type. If you have sensitive skin, go for one of our tools made just for you. For those with normal to oily skin, our Sport collection can help tackle excess oil and grime that can build up during a workout.
3. Proper Use: Apply the exfoliator in circular motions for about 30 seconds, focusing on areas where sweat tends to accumulate; on your face around your forehead, nose, and chin, and your arms, upper back, lower back, and behind your knees.
4. Follow with Hydration: After exfoliating, your skin is more receptive to hydration. Apply a nourishing moisturizer to help repair and protect your skin barrier.
