Hey ladies. So I started to get up at 5am 4 times a week to go to the gym. (IM PRAYING i keep it up) but ive noticed that my face has been breaking out alot. (and by breaking out i mean pimples not a rash lol) Can this be from all the sweating?

Re: BRIDES WORKING OUT
It could be. But, it depends on your skin. Are you wearing makeup to work out? If so, that could be the culprit. The weird thing is for me, when I don't work out, my face breaks out. Sweat pushes out the impurities in your skin. Did you just start working out?

Re: BRIDES WORKING OUT
I would say its from working out or touch all those dirty machines and them touching ur face.... try to wipe down the machine first

Yea, it could be because you just started. The sweat pushes everything out of your skin which is causing you to break out like crazy. Also, wiping the machines also may help because you are touching them and possibly touching your face afterwards(As mentioned by MEMEJOR) Also, I use Clinique #4 astringent/toner before I go and after I go. It keeps the skin pretty. Do you have oily skin?

Re: BRIDES WORKING OUT
ULGH! lol im having a mental vision of someone sweating all over the machines and me going on them after not knowing! lol Luckily everyone (that ive seen anyway) at my gym is really good about wiping down the machines. they have an antibacterial spray and paper towels set up and ive seen everyone use them. THANK GOD! lol
I have combination skin. dry in some areas; oily in others. I will have to use an astringent/toner again. i stopped using it bcuz it would make my face dry.
Thank u ladies!

I would wash your face immediately before and after you work out and also drink lots and lots of water before during and after.

I bet it is from the machines and not realizing it and touching your face to wipe off sweat etc.
I went to a derm and they told me to wash my face with an over the counter soap... I am blanking on the name It is in a green and white pump bottle....celphalon or something like that! I am sorry I could check the name when I get home, but it really works!

You're talking about Cetaphil. It either comes in a blue/white or a green/white plastic bottle. It's good stuff and very gentle on your skin.

Re: BRIDES WORKING OUT
Its probably from the working out. Especially since you just started. Eventually you will be ok. But i suggest washing your face & then using the Oxy face pads to just go over it fast. Im pretty lucky i never get pimples. But i still use those after i work out. Cause i hate the sweat feeling on my face!

Yes it is! Whenever I workout or sweat (in the summer) my forehead breaks out very bad with tiny pimples. It is from the sweat.

I second that! You don't know who used those machines before you. I don't want to be gross but i heard that a girl got a staph infection from the gym. I wash my hands constantly when i go to the gym.

Yea, it's really good stuff. Funny thing is, it's been around for a while now and a lot of people have no idea how good it is.
