If you have makeup on, ensure to completely remove it with an oil-based cleanser followed by a gentle cleanser. *During the workout, don't forget to use a cold towel on your face to wipe off sweat, pollution and dirt. Don't rub your face against your clothes as it can lead to rashes and itchiness. *Keep a toner, facial mist or elixir handy to use while you exercise.
