All the products linked are the ones I use and love! Though I couldn't find the exact same gym bag I have, this is the same brand and very similar.
For many people, the only time they can hit the gym is in the morning before work. So that means packing a well stocked gym bag in order to leave the gym in time and ready for the day.
Saving time is the name of the game and double duty beauty products are a must.
Tinted moisturizer or a good BB or CC cream evens out skin tone while mosturizing. A voluminizing tinted brow gel like Maybelline's Brow Precise Fiber Voluminzer has tiny fibers that quickly fill in gaps. Powder palattes run the risk of breaking and making a mess, so a nice all in one stick that can be applied to eyes, cheeks, and lips saves time, space, and frustration.
Speaking of messes, regular stick deodrant can also make a mess, a gel or aerosal deoderant works better for long term storage in a gym bag.
And of course, face wipes and a face wash are must before applying makeup. If you plan on showering at the gym then don't forget shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and any hair styling tools or products you may need!
I’m a fitness instructor so I basically live in and out of the gym locker room! I often have to run from a class to a PTA meeting and then back to the gym! I never thought about using an all in one stick! I’ve just been skipping blush etc! And it ain’t pretty lol. Thanks! Http://www.thatcrazymilspouse.com
ReplyDeleteI cannot skip blush! I look dead if I do, so a all in one stick is great to add color to my face!
DeleteI love using a tinted moisturizer now. Thanks for the idea for the brow stick.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great post! Thank you for sharing.

Yes absolutely! Also I always have dry shampoo on me. My hair gets so sticky and wet after I workout and get sweaty--it lets me freshen up on the go if I have it in my gym bag!
ReplyDeleteOh Lord,I really need to start working out. Thank you for these tips.
ReplyDeleteI feel ya! I’m still working on getting a more consistent routine.
DeleteYup, these are the essentials. I also keep some peppermint essential oil in my gym bag to help with my energy levels.
ReplyDeleteI've never thought about keeping peppermint oil! I might have to try that!
DeleteI want to try that tinted brow gel! I'm never used one before!
ReplyDeleteYes, it's so nice when you don't have time to fill in your brows with a pencil, powder, or pomade!
DeleteThese are great suggestions. I work out in the mornings, but I can go home and shower. As a busy mom of 4 little ones, I'm all about quick and functional and the brow volumizer and the all-in-one stick are definitely on my shopping list.
ReplyDeleteI need a good tinted moisturizer. I will check out what you mentioned.
ReplyDeleteYesss to double duty beauty products! Great idea for go-to gym bag essentials!
