Here’s the story: You just finished a killer workout and burned off all the calories from lunch. Congrats, you probably feel like a million bucks! Your skin is also probably covered in sweat and impurities. A shower is a great idea, but if you’re not near one, a cleanser is what you should reach for to help ensure that pore-clogging impurities are whisked away from your complexion before they have the chance to wreak havoc. Portable facial cleansing wipes are a staple in our gym bags and purses alike, and are a simple, fuss-free way to freshen up on-the-go, especially if you’re short on time. No matter your skin type, there’s a facial cleansing towelette out there to suit your needs. To that end, we’re sharing our picks of the six best drugstore facial cleansing towelettes to reach for after breaking a sweat, below!
