Every active woman and sporty girl out there knows that working out is great for your health, but unfortunately it doesn’t always have the same effect on your looks. Between sweating and repetitive motion, you’re bound to encounter issues like calluses, clogged pores, and damaged hair. Fortunately, there are beauty products to combat these issues so you can look your best – even when you’re a sweaty mess.
Ralph Lauren Big Pony EDT
Ralph Lauren is the epitome of sophistication – especially in the sporting arena. This fragrance from the all-American brand is one of four from the Big Pony range (RL Pink, RL Yellow, RL Purple, RL Blue) which blends cranberry and tonka for a sensual and fruity scent. Not too heavy, not too light, it’s the perfect balance for a post-polo spritz. FYI – these bottles can be customised by adding your name above the number, so no one will mistake it as theirs in the locker room.
4 HR Water Resistant Sunscreen
If you love the surf, you’re going to need something that will protect you both in and out of the water. The best way to keep yourself from sunburn is with a high-performance sun protection sunscreen. No more unwanted wetsuit tan lines here.
Lady Jayne Style Guards
If you’re one for a sweat sesh followed by a post-workout catch up with friends, the Lady Jayne Style Guards™ are going to change your life. Swear. Kink, tug and tangle-free, these spirals are designed to hold your hair back while you work out, without leaving you with the post-ponytail ‘hair bump’. What’d we tell you, life-changing, right?
Moroccanoil Restorative Hair Mask
Love a bit of mountain air? Being out all day on the slopes in cold weather can be super harsh on your hair, so keep it in good nick with a rich and creamy treatment to repair your brittle strands.

Redken All Soft Argan-6 Oil
It’s safe to assume anyone who enjoys being active is bound to spend a lot of time outdoors. And that’s where this hair saving treatment comes in handy: this Argan Oil envelopes your locks, protecting them from split ends and dehydration. Work the oil into dry or damp hair, concentrating on the mid-lengths and ends.
NIVEA Visage Gentle Facial Cleansing Wipes
One for the workout bag – when you don’t want to carry your entire skin care pack around, keep these facial wipes at an arm’s reach after a sweaty gym session to purify your skin and unclog your pores for a soft, supple and moisturised complexion.
Klorane Dry Shampoo with Nettle
You don’t always have time to wash your hair after a tough workout, but that doesn’t mean you need to walk around all day with oily tresses. Give your hair a spray with this dry shampoo, which is specifically designed to be used on oily locks.
1000 Hour Eyelash & Brow Dye Kit
No one wants to sport a full face of make-up while they’re out on the field, so create a natural look with this waterproof brow and lash tint that’ll have impact without sweating down your face.
Dove Clear Touch Anti-Perspirant Deodorant
A fitness girl’s best friend is undoubtedly one that keeps her smelling like a lady. Protect yourself before, during and after gym class with a deodorant that’s formulated with moisturising cream to nourish and pamper your skin, while keeping those nasty, sweaty smells at bay.
Weleda Foot Balm
Your feet are going to cop a lot of heat on the court or track, which means they will need a lot of TLC post training. Show them some love with this foot balm that’ll repair and soften dry, cracked heels, so you don’t have to hide them in your sport shoes all day long.
Don’t think I would use any of these products including face wipes , I prefer to have a shower post workout
