Recently, a friend added me to a fat loss group on whatsapp where we do daily exercise and send screenshots of our sweaty bodies. We all in the group did that consistently for two months. We started by measuring different body parts, our weight and then included a 45-minutes dance video. Lols.
The result? For me, I noticed a reduction in stomach line, weight and arms. But more importantly, my skin is glowing. All my friends and acquaintances want to know what cream I am using. But in truth I did not change from my former cream.
Thats the beautiful me. Haha

However, for those with sensitive skin, too much sweat during exercise can cause skin irritations, so it is advised to shower after a gym or at worse use wipes or a cooling towel around your neck.
Taking a bathe prevent the sweat from clogging your pores or causing irritations.
When you exercise, your skin may glow or look younger, but if not , know that , that is not the primary reason for engaging in sports. If a regular workout does not get out your wrinkles nor make you glow, just keep up with the exercise. If only for your mental health, the fun of it and to be physically fit, go exercising daily.
