FBGs Give Beauty Advice

While we do have beauty content on this site, beauty is not exactly our highest priority. We’re more about the sore muscles and the sweat around here. Nevertheless, when Daily Glow asked for our thoughts on looking great while staying fit, we had some opinions (shocker!). Here’s just a taste:

• Daily Glow: What are some essential beauty products that every active girl needs?
• FBG: If you’re the girl who can’t go to the gym without makeup on, invest in a good waterproof mascara. You don’t want raccoon eyes when you’re rocking out in a step class! Other FBG musts: a good deodorant/antiperspirant, face wash for before and after your workout, and a good lip balm or Chapstick.
• DG: I feel like if I want to go to the gym before work, I need to haul my entire bathroom with me. Can you suggest any ways to reduce the bulk?
• FBG: Travel-sized items are great for reducing the bulk. Also, go for products that can do multiple jobs, such as a tinted moisturizer or a powder/foundation combo. For color, there are multipurpose products that can be used on eyes, lips, and cheeks. Also, make use of what the gym offers! Many will supply shampoo, body wash, Q-tips and hair dryers.

There’s more where that came from. To find out how to get active without getting drenched with sweat, minimize your beauty essentials at the gym and prevent skin problems, read on, little beauties. —Erin
