Dermalogica Conditioning Wash

If you’re rushing back to work after a lunchtime spinning session or meeting friends after a HITT class, you might want to skip the shower and head straight out of the door.

Don’t!

As well as leaving you a little smelly and sweaty and not very popular with your colleagues, it won’t do your skin or hair any favours.

At Pure Beauty we sell a range of products that you can throw in your gym bag and will leave you looking, feeling and smelling clean and fresh wherever you are heading next.

Cleanse away
Ideally, don’t wear make-up when you exercise as this can clog your pores as you sweat. Use the Dermalogica Special Cleansing Gel before and after your step class and let the soap-free, foaming gel remove impurities without disturbing your skin’s delicate natural moisture balance. Skin-soothing Balm Mint cools and calms the skin which is exactly what you need after a workout, while Lavender Extract purifies and smells great too. Simply lather onto your face, rinse away with warm water and your skin will thank you for it.

Jump in the shower
The Dermalogica Conditioning Body Wash is packed with natural extracts making it suitable for all skin types and perfect for washing away sweat, odours and germ. Soothing essential oils of Sandalwood, Lavender, Orange and Clary Sage moisturise the skin, leaving it smooth and conditioned and because it uses naturally-foaming Quillaja Saponaria Extract this fantastic wash can be used by anyone because it doesn’t upset the natural balance of the skin.

Wash and go
There is nothing worse than heading out with greasy, sweaty hair, so take the Dermalogica Daily Cleansing Shampoo into the shower after that weights session. This great smelling, nourishing, daily shampoo leaves you with healthy, shiny hair however hard you have been working. Argan Oil adds softness, shine and manageability while Coconut Oil strengthens cuticles and thanks to Grapefruit, Lavender and Geranium Oils, your senses are awakened and your hair smells great.

If you need an extra boost, follow with the Dermalogica Daily Conditioning Rinse which will add brilliant shine and bounce which air-conditioned gyms and chlorinated pools can take away.

Lock in the moisture
When you sweat, your body loses moisture which can leave you and your skin dehydrated so when you step out of the shower and are dry, treat your limbs to a generous application of Dermalogica Body Hydrating Cream. This lush cream is quickly absorbed by the skin, which is what you need to if are running to meet a friend at the bar, and will help smooth and soften your skin. We love that is packed with essentials oils which not only sink into your skin but leave it smelling fantastic too.

Hide the red
If you are heading back to work after your exercise class, ease that post-workout redness by applying the Dermalogica Sheer Tint. This lightly tinted moisturiser provides a sheer wash of colour and is perfect if you don’t want to irritate your complexion as it cools down. While it offers protection from the sun, it isn’t chalky or drying but does help with hydration and signs of ageing. We love it and because it comes in light, medium and dark options, there is something for everyone.

 

All in one
If you are new to Dermalogica, or want everything in one place, we suggest buying going for the Dermalogica Travel Essentials Kit. This convenient, travel kit contains everything you need for top to toe cleaning after you have worked out. For £33 you get a body wash, body cream, shampoo and conditioner in travel sizes which are easy to put in your bag and even easier to use.

Hairstyles to Keep You Looking and Feeling Cool While You Work Out

Okay, so, as your Nan would say, going to the gym “isn’t a fashion show”, but there’s no harm in trying to make sure you don’t look a complete mess when you’re slogging it out. We take a look at five hairstyles which help you to keep look AND look good whilst working out in the gym or in the park.

Messy Bun

Messy Bun

Okay, so the messy bun is pretty mush a staple of gym hair, but taking a little time to actually make it look like a hair-do and not an afterthought can take this to the next level. After washing with Dermalogica Shine Therapy Shampoo, spritz with a texturising or salt water spray and allow to dry before sweeping back. Once the hair is up, pull a few strands loose around your face for a framing effect.

Sweeping Braid

Sweeping Braid

This is the perfect gym hair if you’re growing out a fringe or have your hair layered around your face as it starts on one side of your head and sweeps across the top to incorporate the front of your hair. It allows you to get all of the hair away from your face without the use of clips (which, lets face it, can be pretty uncomfortable during yoga or pilates) and looks really pretty on all face shapes.

Double-Tied Pony

Double Tied Pony

This one is super simple but works on two levels – the double tie not only makes this looks better than your average ponytail, but it also secures the hair even further and keeps it all back in one tidy bunch. It’s especially handy if you’re doing an energetic class or running flat out as there’s nothing better at breaking your concentration than being whacked in the face with your own ponytail!

Fishtail

Fishtail

A fishtail is essentially a French plait but done with four strands in stead of three (there are some great tutorials on YouTube if you don’t know how to do one) and it looks a lot more grown up than your average plait. It’s a style that you can wear from gym straight to the office or bar and looks super pretty on basically everyone.

Reverse French Plait

Reverse Braid

This is one of those looks which actually looks a lot more complicated than it is, and basically just involves doing a french plait with your head upside down! Obviously, if you have a friend or relative who’s on hand to help then all the better, but it’s totally achievable on your own and really looks like a very cool alternative to a regular plait.

P.S. – don’t forget your body wash and deodorant for afterwards!
