Is going to the gym good for your skin?

Yes! Going to the gym benefits your body and your skin. Increasing your heart rate supports healthy circulation, which means the skin gets a big boost of the nutrients it needs to look its best.

But let’s not beat around the bush; as great as going to the gym is, it’s designed to make you sweat.
