Skincare for Athletes: Protecting Your Skin Before, During & After Training
Description
Sweat, sun, chlorine, helmets, locker rooms, athletes put their skin through a lot. In this episode, I sit down with licensed aesthetician Sarah Drew to talk about the unique challenges of athlete skincare and the smartest solutions to keep your skin healthy before, during, and after workouts. We share stories from swimming, track, and team sports, uncover the science behind sweat, stress hormones, and the microbiome, and explain why over-cleansing or wearing makeup at the gym can backfire. You’ll learn simple, effective ways to protect your skin whether you’re a casual runner, a weekend swimmer, or a professional athlete. This is skincare that works as hard as you do, without damaging your barrier, your microbiome, or your confidence.
