Regular exercise can keep you physically and mentally young, which is a major motivation for many women to stay active. But compared to everyday workouts, outdoor activities that often expose you to wind and sun deter many women. Below are some handy outdoor tips to help you keep your skin and hair from being harmed even if you frequently take part in outdoor activities.

  • Choose a sunscreen that is lightweight and easy to spread—liquid formulas are best—so it won’t clog your pores;

  • It should be colorless, fragrance-free, and non-comedogenic (no powder). Colored or powdery sunscreens require makeup removal, and sweat can easily cause a "smeared" look, which is very inconvenient in the wild;

  • The SPF should be high—generally SPF 20–25 at low altitudes, and SPF 30+ at high altitudes.

  • When using it, pay attention to the following:

    • Reapply as needed, depending on sun intensity. In high-altitude, sunny areas, apply every half hour. Before reapplying, blot away facial oil;

    • Use a small container to reduce weight and make it easy to carry in your pocket;

    • Also apply a lip balm with SPF;

    • Pay attention to protecting your neck and ears. In high-altitude areas with strong sunlight, wear a sun hat and sunglasses in addition to sunscreen.

    Cleaning sunscreen:

    • Many sunscreens have waterproof properties, so they can’t be washed off with water alone. You’ll need to use a makeup remover—cleansing wipes work well;

    • There’s also a type of facial cleanser specifically designed for outdoor sports. This kind doesn’t need to be rinsed off—you can apply it to your face and then wipe it off with a tissue. It cleans effectively too.
