When I first saw RevAir hair dryer videos pop up on my TikTok For You Page (FYP), I was immediately intrigued. It looked nothing like the hair dryers I'm accustomed to and one creator claimed it fully dried, stretched, and smoothed their hair in under an hour, which for me seemed like a dream come true because whenever I blow-dry my thick, curly hair, I have to set aside a painful amount of hours to get it done.

Dressing up for the gym wasn't always a thing for me-seriously, just getting up and going is hard enough; imagine adding the stress of figuring out a whole outfit?! But after seeing all the girlies IRL and on TikTok (looking at you Kendall Jenner) consistently show up in their cute matching gym outfits, I figured it was time for me to ditch my oversized T-shirt and leggings and go for something a bit more fashionable.

Byrdie I love wearing makeup, but the gym is the one place I’ve never thought to show up with a full face beat. The thought of sweat mixed in with foundation, concealer, setting powders, and blush makes my skin crawl. So when I got invited to test out Fenty Beauty’s new setting spray during a makeup-proof pilates class, my first thought was…huh? But at the same time, I knew a Rihanna-backed product was worth trying.
