Sportsperson's guide to skincare and beauty

When are you going to change the title to let men can join in, you could post this on a feminist website if you want to exclude the male gender.

I think at the rate this is going, considering my ignorance and the number of men who have already joined, that the opposite sex are already involved in this conversation. Let's just say it is going to be an education to some of the women here as well - this one is already learning things!

I'd love to, especially after seeing how many of you actually like to participate, but.. I don't know how?

use the report button and ask for the title to be changed... usually happens quickly

I would love too, I also would like a tip to stop my hair getting greasy and sweaty under my helmet

Edit:Especially when I stop for a brew, take my helmet off and I look a mess.

Are you using styling stuff?

I can only offer second hand advice. Have a man carry your products for you. That way you can use them while he's fixing your punctures or talking about gear ratios

I generally don't use any lotions or potions. Warm gloves and a good buff to keep my face and lips warm and covered seems to work fine for me. However, sometimes I use E45 on my hands to keep them moisturised.

Not found a solution for helmet hair though, but having said that often helmet hair is better then early morning standing up hair!

Massage oil, in small amounts, rubbed into the face before a cold, windy ride stops my face drying out a treat. Not a flakey bit of face anywhere.
I arrive home as stunningly beautiful as the moment I stepped out the door.

There are various bits of good advice from Baz Luhrmann here, most of which if off topic but I think the recurring motif is appropriate



(and the bit about beauty magazines too)

Back to the greasy hair though.. Have you tried this:

Dust hair before putting helmet on.. Once in the tea shop, instead of going straight to the cake display, visit the rest room! Helmet off, fluff hair with fingers, style to taste.. voilà.!!!

Forget beauty magazines (they're pointless anyway).. the ones that make me really unhappy are the cycling ones!!!
