Running, cardio, muscle strengthening—you feel good after exercise. Exercise is good for your health and body, but for your facial skin, it's also a stressful time: sweat, redness, and tension.

As you exercise, your body draws on its water reserves. The result? After exercise, your skin is thirsty and needs hydration. We reveal the beauty routine you should adopt to take care of your skin before and after exercise.

Before sport: protect and moisturize your facial skin

Before exercising, it's essential to protect your skin and hydrate it. To do this, we recommend drinking plenty of water even if you're not thirsty. Since our bodies are made up of over 60% water, which we lose during exercise, it's important to hydrate regularly before and during exercise. In addition to hydrating your skin by drinking water, it's important to thoroughly cleanse your face and moisturize it with a serum and/or day cream.

What facial care routine?

THE Source Adaptogen Rehydrating Serum, the hydrating facial serum that activates hydration. The serum's hydro-regulating action ensures optimal and continuous hydration of the skin and protects it from dehydration + the Anti-Imperfections Mattifying Gel, a mattifying moisturizer that helps fight shine and tighten pores while hydrating the skin.
