Make up before the gym?

LOL, I'm guilty as charged. You have the right attitude. Look your best where ever you go... you never know who might catch your eye and if they'll return the favor!
My man thinks I look good without make-up, but I don't go NO WHERE's without it. It's about being my best and not looking like I just rolled out of bed. Rediculous to many, but not to me. I take make-up very seriously. And I know people are always looking at me at the gym. I'm one of the only *****es who dares to lift heavy. If I'mma be the center of attention without even trying, then you damn right, I'mma look good while I do's it. LOL

I did make up a couple times and I regretted it lol. I looked very funny afterwards.. Just like I hated dying my hair and going to the gym the next day. I'd sweat black down my face and it's hard to get off! I say do what you want! If you feel great putting the make up on even though you're in a dark room and will sweat it off.. then do it!

Asking the wrong person;) I never go anywhere without mascara, or some form of lip-stuff. I would skip anything else for a gym workout...wash your face after and then apply the moisturizer and goodies:)

I donlt, but then I donl;t wear much make up anyway - unless i am going out for the eve. My skin is moderate good, and I am not pale so get away with a bit of mascara.
Also, I don't give a hoot how I look, I am working out, there's no way I look cute at the end of my work out.
On the other hand, I was kicking myself yesterday, when I run into the bloke I am supposed to be going onto a second date with at the gym. I think huffing and puffing sweat drenched shirt and jogging pants isn;t my best look.... *chuckles*

I am about to go the gym for spin, in a dark spin studio, and was putting on make up and thinking about how absurd it was. Not full make up but foundation/powder and blush...I look better but I sweat a ton so it's kind of ridiculous. But I also think there's a lot of cute guys at the gym and I don't want to walk in looking like I just woke up....

Who does this? Admit it if you dare, or feel free to poke fun, I know it's ridiculous :laugh:

It is the height of absurd.
And no, I am not laughing, because men have the same type of mating rituals.

Answer for yourself: why are we going to the gym?

Anyway, you take off your make up, and I'll remove my toupee.

Let's go break a real sweat!

Well, it depends on your skin type and your comfort level. For me, I always wear mascara when I leave the house. That being said, I never ever wear anything on my face to the gym because I break out easily.

I never wore makeup to the gym. Maybe it's because I'm married, but I just think it's silly. I went to the gym to exercise, not to be seen.

I have to admit I've thought about it! There are some really good looking guys at my gym, too. But I have always opted against it.

I will admit, though, that I've gone in looking like a hot mess and left looking just hot haha. I was going out after the gym the other day and when I left had on skinny jeans, high heels, a nice top, freshly done hair, and my make up done. It was nice to notice a few guys eyes trailing after me as my heels clacked their way out of the locker room and out the door.

But I'm not at the gym to catch a man. I'm there to get my workout on.

And I'd rather a guy not come up and flirt with me while I'm sweaty and gross haha.

I usually put on foundation and a little powder so I don't look totally weird.

I've never gone to the gym with make-up on unless I go straight from work, plus I'm married, so not looking for any extra attention. When I work out at the gym I will hit the sauna afterwards. It never has made sense to me, kinda like wearing make-up to go swimming. I'm going to get drenched so why bother? Nothing wrong with it, just not my thing.
