5. Calming care will only make skin trouble freeThe last thing we want our skin to feel is to feel 'irritated' or 'sensitive'. The shortcut to troubles and acne on skin is when we leave the skin without care when it is going through tough times. And because our skin is more prone to irritation and sensitivity after a workout and heavy sweating, make sure to add an extra calming care step for the skae of your skin and for acne free skin!• Pre-workout: Skip this calming care step before the gym but of course, whenever skin feels sensitive or heated, you can add this step no matter what the occasion is.• Post-workout: Post-workout skincare routine will the perfect time to add a calming care in your routine.
