    I'm really pale so I wear a bit of blush and gloss. Don't want to scare anyone!

    I am a sweaty mess when I leave the gym. I don't even bother with makeup now, unless it is a special occasion.

    I wear a tinted moisturizer with sunscreen and lip balm every day, but no mascara/eyeshadow/blush etc. I just keep a pack of makeup removing cleansing wipes in my bag and wipe it off before I work out. If I keep it on it gets all over my yoga mat when I sweat or put my face/head on the mat.

    I usually go on my way home from work, so yeah, full face of makeup is still on.
    If I go before work, or on a weekend morning, I haven't showered yet or anything so I haven't bothered.

    I mostly work out after work and I don't take my makeup off. I can see why it might be better for your skin to at least remove foundation but I never do and it hasn't caused any problems for me. Even when I sweat a ton my eye makeup usually stays pretty nicely in place so I don't look like too much of a monster afterward.

    I look dead without a bit of eye liner on so sometimes I will still throw a little bit on even when I workout first thing in the morning. Other mornings I'm like eh whatever.

    I wear makeup if I've been at work all day wearing it and if I'm honest I'll sometimes wear a base first thing in the morning too. Adult-onset acne came about this year and I just feel more confident covering it up a bit- wish I didn't feel the need to though!

    if i worked out later on in the day i would but since i work out first thing before makeup even goes on i dont

    i think that i would probably remove my foundation before working out just because of how sensitive my skin can be though

    I don't take my makeup off before going the gym during my lunch hour or in the evening, but I also don't put makeup on if I go in the morning.

    I go to the gym after work, I take it off. I only wear light make up but I can't stand the feeling on my face once I start to sweat

    I workout before I start my day so no. If I worked out in the evening I'd probably still wear it

    Never. I don't understand girls who come to the gym in full makeup, with super matchy tight outfits and sneakers, and jewelry to boot. I can't bring myself to take them seriously.

    Yes i do. I would go to crossfit after work and still have my make up on. No one cared if it was a smeary mess when i got done. On days that i go cycling i don't because it might rain and make my eyes burn.

    Wearing makeup while working out is not a good idea. It can cause pores to be blocked and cause breakout. If I have foundation and any kind of cream/powder on my skin (which I don't usually wear anyway), l wash it out. The only thing I can tolerate is waterproof mascara (assuming I was already wearing it) and lip colour.

    I wear makeup every day. If I am going running in the morning, I don't put any makeup on until after i run and shower. But if I am going later in the day, I will put makeup on in the morning as I normally do.

    After the run, I shower but don't wash my face and the makeup is fine...I just use an oil blotting sheet and touch up the lipstick and shadow if I do this. It looks great, but then I don't do really heavy makeup. If you're going for the Tammy Faye Bakker look, it might be more of a problem. LOL!

    I usually work out in the morning, so on those days I put makeup on after I've worked out and showered.

    If I work out in the afternoon or evening I'm usually coming from work, so then I have mascara, concealer, and blush on. I don't use foundation, my mascara is waterproof, and everything I buy is non-comedogenic so I don't bother wiping it off. However, I also don't sweat much right now plus our tiny gym is cold and FILLED with fans so I don't deal with that issue. In another gym I used to use I'd sweat more, so then I'd use a remover wipe if I worked out after work.

    Maybe some tinted moisturizer and light mascara, but that's about it.
