Makeup in the gym. Where do you stand?

I never take my make-up off before going to the gym as I'm usually there straight after work and rushing to beat traffic etc to get to a spin class on time. I only wear eye make up and that pretty much stays put no matter how horrendously sweaty I get. I might re-think if I ever wore pressed powder or something like that.

I don't put make up on if I'm going to the gym first thing in the morning before work but wouldn't judge anyone that does. No harm in wanting to look good, after all isn't that why most of us go to the gym?

This is some funny **** I go the gym in the morin and after noon in the morin there is one girl who's had hair all dolled up but on the other had she is walking on the tread mill ok that's not hat bad. No doubt I wear make up my self at work hours then go to the gym I take my time taking my liner so on and so on there are a few lady's who wear make that inc liner lip stick when do there work out hey sweat like a lil monkey but don't care if he liner goes on there face but then on the other hand there a some damn sexy guys tooo but don't for get sometimes us girl do try picking up guys up at he gym

Generally I think Most people wouldn't even be able to tell you what you were wearing. Think do you watch other people or are you in the zone trying to push for that little extra effort.
I think in the last two years that i have been going to the gym the one day I noticed a girl wearing eye makeup i was more impressed because just coming out of a high intensity class i was amazed she didn't look like Panda!

For me, no. But I very rarely wear makeup to begin with.

I don't think women NEED makeup the way some do, in order to look pretty. But if it makes them feel more confident, have at it.
It really doesn't affect me.

Wait, this is something people care about?

I wear makeup every day. I do my workouts at home, but if I went to the gym I can't imagine I'd stop to take off my makeup before I went.

Each to their own, that's what I say!

Women is OK, but not on the guys :noway:

Do what you want. But I don't like burning eyes from make-up soaked sweat.

Such a none question seeing as it's "something I wanted to address for a while". Do you think anyone actually cares if you wear make up to the gym?

Actually some do. I've seen a lot of those "I hate those little gym bunnies wearing make up and skimpy work out clothes and just standing around flirting with the lifting guys" post

I regularly show up looking like Mimi from the drew carey show. By the end of my workout it brings a whole new meaning to face painting

I usually don't leave the house without make up, but I don't bother with it when I go to the gym.. I go very early in the morning, then come home and shower.. It would be pointless to put it on just to wash it off an hour and a half later..

i got booted from my last gym for wearing makeup....

I wear makeup maybe once a month, once every other month. So I don't have any on when I go. If I had makeup on and I was doing an evening workout, I would probably not bother removing it before doing my workout.

Never bothered me, go there to work out and sweat. Dont think its a good look for ladies with make up running down their face

People will hate you for wearing make up.

People will hate you for not bothering.

People will hate you for training.

People will hate you for not training.

Long and short? Do what you see fit. Life is too short to worry about what others think with such a minor thing, such as make up.

I think this pretty much sums up most of the squabbles that go on in life and on these forums. As is said above, stop worrying about what other people think.
