]]> Sweating is a natural bodily function that usually kicks in during intense workouts or whenever we’re in a particularly warm environment. While it’s true that its main function is to regulate body temperature, there are several other physiological benefits to sweating that aren’t quite as well-known. Whether you’re already a pro at working up a sweat or are in need of motivation to get your sweat on, read on to learn more about some benefits of sweating that go beyond thermoregulation.

Detoxification & better skin

When we sweat, our glands excrete waste products such as heavy metals, alcohol, and harmful chemicals absorbed from the environment. This process can help to unclog pores and leave your skin with a healthy glow, thanks to the natural moisturizing properties of certain chemical compounds found in sweat. 

Immune system support

Skin may not be the first organ to come to mind when thinking of the immune system, but it actually plays an essential role in the body’s natural immune response. Sweating triggers the production of a natural antibiotic called dermcidin, which, when excreted to the skin’s surface, acts as a first line of defense against infections.

Stress reduction

Engaging in physical activities that induce sweating triggers the release of endorphins, the body’s natural feel-good hormones. These endorphins alleviate stress, improve mood, and promote relaxation in the short-term and can lead to better sleep quality and increased resilience to stressors in general.

]]> The summer heat is here for a while and we’re entering the muggiest time of year. Whether you’re sweating from the heat or sweating after a workout, losing all that water can start to dehydrate your skin and the salt can be bad for your pores. To help recover from sweating, here’s what to look for in moisturizer for after you’ve washed your sweat off your face.

For Sensitive Skin

If your skin is very sensitive, you’ll want to give it a little time to recover before applying moisturizer. When you do moisturize, use something oil-free and light, so as not to put too much pressure or irritants on your skin. Some “extra” stuff like antioxidants are okay, but be sure they aren’t ingredients that will irritate you, since sweat is already irritating.

For Dry Skin

On the other hand, if your skin is dry, you’ll want to use something richer and heavier to help it back from being dehydrated. Choose a cream with lots of nutrients, but again pay attention to whether any of them are irritants for you.  It’s especially good to choose something designed for dry skin.

For Oily Skin

For oily skin, as you might guess, you’ll want to make absolutely sure your formula is oil-free. You’ll also want to avoid anything too heavy so your pores are able to breathe.

]]> Most gym-goers have developed a detailed post-workout skincare routine they follow after every sweat session, but there’s a couple of steps you should take before your workout.

Hair Back

Even if your hair isn’t getting in the way during the workout, you should still tie it into a ponytail. It’s important to get your hair out of your face because sweat can clog pores and lead to breakouts on your forehead, especially once it’s mixed up with hair products.

No Makeup

If you’ve been wearing makeup before your workout, don’t forget to remove it before heading to the gym. Keeping makeup on can lead to breakouts and skin irritations, so it’s never a good idea to wear it during your training.

Watch Your Hands

Never head to the gym without a clean towel you’re going to use to get rid of the sweat. You’ll probably end up touching your face with your hands otherwise, and this is a big no-no since it can lead to breakouts and infections due to all the bacteria lurking around the gym.
