Your workout is good for your body, but a few gym habits could be making your skin feel stressed.

Sweat, heat, friction and touching your face during a workout can leave your skin feeling irritated, congested or uncomfortable. Add in makeup or skipping your post-gym routine, and your skin may need a little extra attention.

Here are three gym mistakes to avoid.

Mistake one: Working out with a full face of makeup.

Makeup mixed with sweat can feel heavy and uncomfortable. If you can, keep your pre-workout routine simple and give your skin a chance to breathe.

Mistake two: Touching your face during your workout.

Your hands, phone and gym equipment come into contact with a lot of surfaces. Try to avoid touching your face while you train, and clean equipment before using it.

Mistake three: Waiting too long to refresh your skin.

After a workout, your skin can feel sweaty, sticky, red or uncomfortable. Give it a quick reset by gently cleansing your face or using a remer Refreshing Face Spray when you need something quick and easy.

Then follow with a lightweight moisturiser to keep your skin feeling fresh and comfortable.

A few small changes can make your post-workout routine feel a whole lot better.

Train hard. Keep your skin fresh.
