The trick to glowing skin is ample amount of water and good fats. But when we do exercise our body loses a large amount of fluid. And most of the people follow a strict diet routine which does not allow them to intake fats. So, if you want to have a smooth and beautiful skin then you need to make sure that your diet and water intake compensate for the exercise and to avoid premature wrinkles.
2. Keep the bacterias away

Never ever go to the gym with makeup on as it clogs your pores. And when you workout the sweat combines with the foundation and mascara which later makes your skin look disaster. So, it is always better to clean up your face with bi-phase cleanser followed with face wash and toner.
4. Maintaining post- workout hydration

Most of us want to scrub off and clean up our skin after a workout sessions. But you need to relax because your skin has a very high temperature at that time. So, avoid scrubbing your face. You just need to cool down your face with the mist and then apply a water based moisturizer to maintain the moisture level of your skin.

You should plan your skincare routine wisely. Like you should not drink a large amount of water in a gulp instead of this you should drink it in small quantities throughout the sessions. And similar is the case with skincare. When you feel like moisturizing your skin make sure it is the right time to apply moisturizer. Always plan and then move accordingly to maintain a healthy skin.
