Gym Bag Essentials: Drop and Give Me 7
April 9, 2009 
The warm weather has everyone thinking bikini season—and scrambling to the gym to shape up for barely-there bathing suits. Whether you're sweating it out on the elliptical or honing your om factor in a warrior three pose, every gym bunny needs her beauty essentials for freshening up after a good workout.

Packing It In
Just as a new suitcase can inspire you to travel, a cool gym bag can motivate you to get to the gym. The Smart Travel Tote ($78)(1) from LeSportSac is a stylish and simple place to start for packing the following locker room must-haves.

The Art of (Quick) Shaving
With the lather already built in, the Schick Intuition Plus ($9.99)(2) for sensitive skin is the best razor for on-the-go shaving in tight quarters—think gym shower stall you'd like to get out of ASAP….
 
Smaller is Better
The last place you want to be stranded with a surprise period and no back ups is the gym, where you're wearing little more than spandex and a smile. Keep this o.b. ToGo Purse Pack (free on their website)(3) in your bag at all times.

Wipe Out
There’s no need to lug around the Proactiv three-step for clean skin. Bloom's cucumber and aloe Cleansing Wipes ($12)(4) get rid of makeup, sweat, and dirt in a simple swipe.

Lock 'n' Spell
With the Wordlock Padlock ($9.99)(5) the only numbers you'll have to remember during your workout are all of those reps you'll be doing. Set this lock to a super secret word and you're goodies will stay, and you'll remember the combo easily!

Fruit Spritzer
The travel size Jasmine Grapefruit Deodorant ($6)(6) uses organic extracts to do more than just fight bacteria and B.O.—it also leaves skin lightly scented. Its mini size and double purpose makes it the perfect workout buddy.

Gym Band-it
This stretchy American Apparel Cotton Spandex Jersey Headband ($8)(7) can be practical, used to keep hair back while getting physical, or perhaps even more practical as a cute sweaty hair saver when you're leaving the gym. And like those sweat socks, it’s machine-washable.
