2. Laura Mercier Illuminating Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20, Natural Radiance, $46: Since you probably have limited time before rushing off to the next event in your schedule, products that combine capabilities — in this case, moisturizing, tinting, and sun protection — are key. "Two for one and it's simple and easy, while adding a little glow."

3. GoodWipes Women's Deodorizing Body Biodegradable Wipes, 10-count, $9.99: In case even a quick shower is out of the question, you can cheat in the locker room by using these wipes, which are pH balanced, alcohol-free, and hypoallergenic. They also won't dry out your skin.

4. Oribe Gold Lust Dry Shampoo Purse, $22: Dry shampoo enthusiasts swear by this specific brand because it doesn't leave behind residue or make your hair look stiff. "I have a lot of hair and that means I don't always have time to wash it. This stuff works magic."

5. 37 Actives High Performance Anti-Aging and Firming Serum, $175: This lightweight serum that Rilinger uses under her moisturizer contains a whopping 37 ingredients to help firm the skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and lines.

1. Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray, $46: Another popular Oribe hair product to try, especially if you're seeking extra volume and texture, is this spray. According to Snow, it helps you get the "I just rolled out of bed and still look good" look, as opposed to the much less desirable "I just rolled out of a sweaty workout" look.

2. Fatboy Hair Spray Putty, $9.13: This is hair putty in light and convenient spray form, so you don't have to get your hands dirty again as you freshen up post-workout. It's best for fine to medium hair.

Buy it here: Amazon

3. Sisley Paris Restorative Facial Cream with Shea Butter, $119.79: Silky and moisturizing, this cream was made for use after outdoor exposure to sun and wind, but it's equally suited to treat the harsh, dry conditions of an indoor gym.

Buy it here: Amazon | Nordstrom

4. Tom Ford Private Blend Oud Wood Eau de Parfum, $148: Oud wood is rare, and accordingly, expensive. The distinctive and well-rounded payoff, however, is well worth it. "Tough and built to last."

Buy it here: Nordstrom

5. Old Spice Deodorant, Timber With Sandalwood Scent, $4.97: Smelly armpits are an inevitable effect of working out. The aluminum-free deodorant from this classic brand lasts for up to 24 hours, allowing you to sail through the day odor-free.

3. Recess Face 101 Cleansing Wipes, $26: Containing ingredients like hyaluronic acid, eucalyptus, and aloe, these wipes moisturize and soothe at the same time they clean your skin. "Straight after I sweat I always remove my makeup with Recess removal wipes. I do this to make sure I don't break out post-workout."

4. Lumify Redness Reliever Eye Drops, $11.37: No one will be able to tell you've just come off the busiest day of the week after you use these refreshing eye drops. "They're the first FDA-approved eye drops that you can use twice a day and they make your eyes look like they've been filtered!"

Buy it here: Amazon | Walmart | CVS

5. Verb Dry Shampoo, $13.75: The Gentle Cleanse + Light Volume version provides an instant hair update, removing oil and boosting body. Verb's products are free of parabens and sulfates. "I'm showering three times a day because I'm always sweaty so I definitely don't wash my hair each time — a good dry shampoo is my go-to."
