Rita Ora Likes Makeup for the Gym

by Jacqueline Risser

It's no secret that Rita Ora likes to get all dolled up. Just take a look at the British singer's Instagram account -- it's full of images of her decked out in funky-fun fashion with her signature red lip.

So we weren't all that shocked to see her 'gram a pic of herself yesterday in gym wear (of course, the coolest gym wear -- love the mesh!), along with her makeup must for working out.

"Nude lippy on always!" she captioned the shot.

We're not opposed to adding a little color to your face for a sweat session -- and hey, if that's what it takes to get you motivated, we're all about it.

Here at SELF, we're fans of an easy-to-wear lipstain that'll add a pop of color that won't bleed or wear off as you cycle, run, row, kickbox...you get the idea. Try Benefit's Benetint, $30, to enhance your natural lip color without looking like you're all done up.

Want more tips? We've got more ways for you to look hot at the gym and a ton of quick hairstyles perfect for any workout. Plus, we've got a post-workout beauty routine that'll have you looking fresh in 7-minutes -- could a lunchtime workout be in your future? Hm...
