Working out is hard enough. Between finding the time in your already jam-packed schedule to get to the gym, determining your perfect routine once you’re there, and then mustering up the willpower to keep at it for longer than five minutes, it’s a wonder you don’t give up on the endeavor before it even begins. But instead you persevere, in hopes that, with a little luck and lot of hard work, you’ll manage to get ripped by the time summer rolls around.

But unless you’re headed straight home after, there’s still one obstacle you’ve got to overcome: let’s call it “workout body.” Encompassing everything from greasy hair and skin that won’t stop dripping all the way down to feet that reek to all hell, this head-to-toe affliction can make transitioning from exercise to polite company terribly challenging if not treated properly. And yet there’s hope; all you need is the right stuff and you can vacate the premises looking looking your best—and not like you just spent an hour and a half sweating through your shorts.
