Is exercise making me spotty?

I am a sweaty-betty when exercising and my head/face sweats loads, running down from my hairline, particularly down the side of my face. I've started getting spots just before my period is due in these areas but I think the exercise sweat is making them worse. I do always wash my face asap after exercising, but it doesn't seem to really help - is there anything else I can do?

i wear a sweatband headband when i am exercising though it does give me a few little spots on my forehead but better than looking all Red and sweaty in the face.It really helps

I actually find my skin improves with all the sweating.

Vintage I'm going to seem really dim here but I see how a sweat band helps with the sweat but redness? I ask because I get so red even when just thinking of going the gym!! would love to remedy it.

sorry just me confusing you. It is the sweat that seems to make my face Red rather than the exercise itself

I found when I started exercising I gor spotty at first from sweating all the toxins out but once you get into a routine it actually improves you skin.
