"When it came to my post-workout shower routine, I didn't really have one. I worked out and showered using whatever products were at the studio or gym I was visiting. It was around this same time that I started breaking out a lot. Convinced my breakouts were directly related to my sweat, I started washing my face before my workouts, again with whatever product was at the studio. My skin only got worse.
Today I owe my acne-free face to skin guru Kimmy Pigliucci and her AES Beauty Skincare line (prices start at $18). Kimmy taught me that sweat wasn't the cause of my breakouts; it was all the random products I was using and the inflammatory ingredients they were made from. Kimmy's line is made from safe anti-inflammatory ingredients that don't aggravate the face. I never shower at the gym now unless I have the AES toolkit with me and am proud to say my skin is totally clear!" — MF
