But let’s be real, HKI’s focus isn’t on your gym goals (although we wish you luck), but on the stylish gym bag beauty essentials we think you should be toting before stepping foot out of your house.

REFRESH 

Let’s say you just worked out mid-workday & didn’t break a sweat and aren’t emitting a strong aroma, a great product to use to feel refreshed before you return to work sans the shower is . The mini, super totable container has single hypo-allergenic sheets you can use to wipe down your face, body and hands. Also comes in fragrance-free & grapefruit scents. Love the size of this little cutie.

Put your own beauty essentials like facial cleansers, toners, etc. in the tiny bottles without taking up a bunch of space in your bag.

TRANSFORM

Anything you could possibly need to transform yourself from aerobics queen to a fly 9-5 employee is in Sheer Cover Mineral 120-Day Deluxe Makeup Kit. This kit comes with a facial cleanser, moisturizer, primer, concealer, two mineral foundations you can blend to get a perfect match, foundation brushes and so much more! As seen on TV’s got my attention now.
