Stocking up on easy-to-tote post-workout essentials means no more racing home to freshen up. So schedule that workout and practice your post-workout hairdo ASAP — these beauty products will have you feelin’ fresh and ready for wherever your day may take you.

FRESHEN UP IN NO TIME

After you cool down from a low-impact class (read: yoga, pilates or barre), the best thing you can do is hop in the shower to slough off any sweat and bacteria. If your studio doesn’t have a shower or if you don’t have time to rinse off, have no fear — these products are your new superheroes.

2. The Body Shop Tea Tree Cleansing Wipes 25-Count ($15): Before you step into your hot yoga session, we highly recommend wiping off the day’s makeup to ensure that your sweat doesn’t mingle with your makeup and clog your pores. Pro tip: Get more bang for your buck by cutting these in half — that way you can use one half before your workout and the other afterwards.
