    It honestly depends when I am going. Sometimes it cant be helped since it is after work. I do prefer without it though. Getting mascera and eyeliner in ur eyes hurts!

    I'm not sure what people think is acceptable/not acceptable....but my vote is for "who cares!!" Do whatever you please.

    If you feel the need to wear it, then wear it. If you don't want to bother, then don't.

    Honestly I don't know why anyone cares if someone wears make up to the gym or not.

    You say this now.... just wait till you see me at the gym in my short shorts and my boys pop out to say hello.

    If you're coming straight from work or at the end of the day where you still have your make up on, there's no point to take it off just cuz you're going to the gym! Although if you're working out first thing in the morning, i don't think it's worth it to put on make up till after! I don't look down on girls w/ make up at the gym at all.

    I say no makeup. It runs and looks nasty. Just my opinion, but the gym is where you go to sweat and make fat cells cry. Not necissarily to look cute. The cute/beautiful/hot lookin part is sliding into those skinny jeans. with in reason, I don't care how I look at the gym. I am there to do a few things 1. make fat cells cry 2. push my body and mind 3. get stress out.
    the thing I really could do with out is the giant mirror though I hate seeing myself out of the corner of my eye. LOL
    Happy sweatin!
    perfectely said !!! this is exactely what i am thinking when i go to the gym :D

    ^^^^^This!!!! Everyone there is to do one thing and that is burn, burn, and burn calories! IMO if you look refreshed and your make up is still on then you are obviously not working out!!!!

    You wont catch this chick anywhere without the make up! I agree! I dont really care who wears it and who doesnt, its a personal choice

    My only gripe with people wearing makeup to the gym would be when they are using shared equipment (weight machines, for example) and they leave makeup streaks on the equipment. If you're going to wear makeup, at least wipe down the machines after you finish so the rest of us don't get your makeup on our clothes.

    I personally find that wearing makeup when working out makes my face itch. I don't even wear makeup to work much; I was genetically blessed with good skin (my mom and grandmother both have beautiful skin). My sister had a terrible bout with adult acne, but I somehow dodged that bullet.

    who cares what other's think?!?!? I workout in makeup, only because I workout right after I get off work. Typically on the weekends when I'm about to workout I'll add mascara just because... Girl's gotta always be beautiful right :wink:

    I prefer not to because it looks nasty when you get all sweaty, and i buy really expensive makeup and don't want to be wasteful. Lol but after work w/ makeup is pretty normal...it does clog pores though... but to each their own. I don't judge those who do wear it. :)

    so i was wondering , is it ok to wear makeup at the gym or is it frowned upon?
    when i use to workout after work, i use to have make up on , but now that i workout early in the morning, i don't bother to wear make up. so what do you think ?

    I go in my lunch break so I wear make up. I don't have enough time to take it all off before working out.

    If I go in the morning, I have no make-up on. Often I will also go on my lunch break and/or after work and I have mascara on. I am not there to meet men so I don't care about whether I have it on or not, and neither should you. Unless you're on a mission to meet a man, and then I'd suggest a good waterproof mascara ;)

    I frown upon people caring about what other people will think.

    Yeah, when I see some chick dolled up in bedazzled workout gear and full makeup on, I laugh to myself, but if she's happy with what she's doing, that's all that counts.
    I love this comment.

    The only time I've ever wore makeup to the gym was when I had a BUSY DAY... Like, I was out and about all day driving my kids everywhere. Only had time to stop off at home to change into gym clothes and make it to my zumba class with less than a minute before it starts. Other than that I won't sit there before I go to the gym and get all primp and pretty just so my sweat can take it all off. There's no point!

    I couldn't care less if someone wore make up or not. Just doesn't bother me .. to each their own. Who am I to judge.

    Sweating profusely would counter act any quantity of makeup I could wear, so, I know I wouldn't bother wearing it ..but that's just me. It barely helps when I'm not working out., why would I waste a good 3 minutes getting all dolled up, and for whaaaat?
