Self-care is the perfect complement to a fitness lifestyle, and there’s no easier way to give yourself some TLC than to invest in your skincare. After all, perspiring – which releases toxins from your skin – can also lead to breakouts if you haven’t locked down a quality routine. So if you need some new products in your arsenal, check out these recommendations to get started (and if there’s anything you think should be on our radar, ping suggestions to wellness@flygirlcollective.co)
