5 products if you really can't exercise without makeup

As soon as my alarm goes off around six in the morning, I splash some water on my face and pull myself together with a toothbrush in a sports outfit, to then head out on my bike to the other side of Amsterdam . You read that right, only the bare essentials happen before the birds start chirping. Okay, I may look a little less on fleek than the blonde next to me, but I get on the treadmill to work up a sweat and not to steal the show with my Bambi eyes. If you are one of those people who likes to exercise with makeup on (or are too lazy to take it off before diving into the gym), then this piece is for you. These are the five makeup products that gymproof Let out a little scream, eat another Zeeuwse bolus, shake your hips, the moment we have all been hoping for is finally here.

1. Concealer

A good concealer is a lifesaver for that big pimple or those bags under your eyes. This palette from M.A.C contains four colors so you can use the perfect shade all year round.

2. Layer

Do you still want to camouflage your entire face but not with a thick layer? Then opt for lightweight products like a water-based foundation or a good BB cream. A mineral powder works wonders; it's natural but also provides good coverage.

3. Brows on fleek

A quick gel through your brows keeps them in check during the sprint on the treadmill. The eyebrow gel from Maybelline Tattoo Studio Brow Gel is completely sweat-resistant and will definitely survive your sweat session.

4. Mascara

Waterproof of course, that goes without saying. The best mascara can be found at home Chanel, believe me.

5. Gloss

A little color on your lips but not all the way in lipstick? I'm a fan of the new sticks from Clarins. They give your lips a subtle color and also have nourishing properties.

And make sure to remove your makeup as quickly as possible after training and not to layer a new one on top. Otherwise, the new layer will mix with sweat and impurities, and then you're further from home.
