Makeup at the Gym...

Wearing make up to the gym is just another thing woman are scrutinized for.

 When I re-joined the gym at the beginning of June, although it is a ladies only gym, I was a bit apprehensive about going barefaced, probably because I often feel women are the one's who are the most judgy and because I'm not completely confident with my skin.

Although I didn't want to put on a full face and get all dolled up, I wanted to feel comfortable and confident as I'm a firm believer if you feel comfortable, you'll work out harder! So rather than going completely barefaced, I've been opting for a little bit of Benefits POREfessional on my t-zone, Collection Concealer to disguise my dark circles and any blemishes, a coating of mascara and a bit of lip balm therefore giving me a natural look. 

One thing to remember if you do wear make up to the gym, even just a little, is to remove it immediately when you're done as it can clog your pores leading to breakouts; once I've washed mine off, I like to apply a little bit of TBS Warming Mineral Mask on my t-zone to ensure nothing sticks around in my pores.

Although I myself would never rock up to the gym with my Kim K smokey eye and full face of foundation, if that's what makes you feel most comfortable and confident go-ahead I'm not going to judge you and neither should other people!
