You’ve finally gotten back into a gym routine and are feeling great, only to have a crop of pimples pop up on your face and body. Is getting your sweat on to blame? Does sweat cause acne? Sometimes!
We’re explaining when sweat causes breakouts—and what to do about it—in today’s article.
Before we go to work banishing sweat-related acne, it’s important to make sure that it is in fact acne you're dealing with in the first place. Heat rashes, which are caused by heat and friction, can look and behave remarkably similarly to pimples.
So how can you tell the two apart? Sometimes it’ll take a consult with your dermatologist. But here are a couple pointers:
Just like acne, heat rash can show up as small red bumps or pustules, so when in doubt, get in touch with your doc.
The answer is: both! When done correctly, sweating can be an effective tool in your anti-acne toolkit. This is because sweat is awesome at getting all of the excess gunk (like sebum and dead skin) out of your pores, so they don’t become clogged.
Sweating only becomes problematic for your skin in a few different scenarios:
There are a few simple things you can do before you get sweaty to ensure that you’re not encouraging pimples:
What you do with your skin after you get sweaty is the biggest determinant of whether you’ll get sweat acne. Here are a few measures to take:
If you’re dealing with some breakouts from sweating, there’s no need to worry. We simply need to unclog those pores and re-balance your skin’s pH!
One of the best ways to do that is with a natural, effective skincare routine, like the 4-step facial routine from Wild Ice. We’ve formulated our cleanser, toner, C-Serum and moisturizer to deliver the maximum amount of nutrients to your skin, without any of the toxic and irritating preservatives that can make acne worse. Try it in your post-gym routine today and get ready to watch your skin glow.

I can’t say enough about all the Wild Ice products! The toner is light and refreshing and is the perfect addition to my skin routine. I highly recommend all her products if you are craving beautiful skin!
My face feels so hydrated and smooth. Love how it looks too
Started this 4 step set 2 weeks ago and was hooked after the 1st day. Can't wait to post my 6 week progress photo. With each use I keep changing my mind to which one is my favorite. I look forward every morning and evening to the fresh feel of washing and moisturizing my face. Thank you Mila for this beautiful product.
LOVVVEEEE IT! I feel immediately lifted as soon as I finish using it, and it is a wonderful face massage. I feel like I have treated myself, every time I use it.
I’m hooked on Cryo-C. This hydrates and makes my skin look youthful!
I love this body oil! It goes on smoothly and my skin feels amazing. I lobe using this when I get out of the shower. It smells amazing too!
I love this product. Not greasy or oily. Leaves my skin smooth and I love the smell. Since using this product, I constantly get told my skin looks beautiful and has a nice glow.
I have used several cleansers over the years and since trying the B-Meltee, I always come back to this product. It is a clean fragrance as well as a clean feeling without drying out my skin. I would recommend this product to all ages and all skin types. It will not disappoint, I promise.
I began using the cryo- C about six weeks ago and my skin has never looked better! The first thing you notice is how wonderful it smells, the second thing you notice is how it glides on and gives you an instant glow, and the next thing you notice overtime is that it provides a permanent dewy glow with diminished discoloration‘s and lines! I love love love this product! I’m 58❤️
This is truly the best system I’ve ever used. My skin is healthier - I’ve always had dry skin and finally it feels hydrated and the difference is visible. It even stayed hydrated feeling and looking on a 5 day ski trip, which always especially drys out my face. I’ve also had redness on my cheeks and that is slowly but noticeably decreasing. I gave wild ice to my daughters and best friend for Christmas as well and they are so happy with it and agree it’s a game changer for our skin. Thank you!
This class was such a great experience. Mila explains how the muscles in your face work and how to use her products to enhance your face and glow. I had so much fun as this class and I would definitely go to another one!
Love these products! My wrinkles are minimised with continual use and it’s an easy regimen. Try it!
This cleanser is light and refreshing, but does the heavy lifting of cleaning my face daily! I love how refreshed my face feels afterward- not dry or tight; just soft and clean! I have used Mila’s 4 step program for a year now and my skin has never looked better! I’m absolutely obsessed with each step and the benefits my skin has gotten from them. Clear, glowing, soft skin!
The entire Wild Ice line of products are what my skin responds to over any other product I've ever used. I do not hesitate to put any new Wild Ice product on my skin knowing I can trust the ingredients to do the job well. Just smelling the freshness of the products is a daily pleasure. And look no further than Mila's gorgeous skin for inspiration :)
So glad I found Mila again after her rebranding to Wild Ice. Her skin care line is the best I’ve found for my skin (and I’m sensitive to so many products) It’s a luxury I can’t do without
