One of the most common mistakes people make is not removing their makeup before going to bed. It not only clogs pores, but it also creates a barrier between your skin and the environment, making breathing harder.
Another major blunder to avoid is not wearing sunscreen. Wrinkles and fine lines are indications of ageing that can appear on your skin.
Here are some common skincare mistakes to avoid
Not using sunscreen on a daily basis
Even when it’s gloomy, raining, or snowing, you should wear sunscreen every day. You don’t have to be at the beach to receive too much sun exposure, which causes sunspots, skin damage, and can even lead to skin cancer. According to Sessa, it’s best to use a daily moisturizer and sunscreen combo, and make sure it’s at least SPF 30.
Choosing your own skin
You may not realize it, but picking at your skin can cause irritation, irritated skin, and the spread of bacteria. Going too far with this might cause scarring and may even cause you to break out because your hands are normally covered in bacteria. If you have an anxious habit, attempt to break it by doing something else with your hands.
Even if you wash your hair and cleanse your face thoroughly every evening before going to bed, your pillowcase collects dust, epithelium particles (including epithelium from someone you share your bed with), and pet hair. After 2-3 days, your pillow has created the ideal environment for blemishes to “enrich” your face.
Instead of using powder to hide the greasy sheen, try matting wipes.
No matting products can hide the fact that the face shines 24 hours a day, seven days a week. In the heat, this can be a major problem. And it’s at this point that many people reach for the face powder to remove the shine. Unfortunately, it cannot keep the face matte for an extended period of time (especially when it is extremely hot outside), but it will clog the pores.
Getting insufficient sleep
According to studies, getting enough sleep is not only good for your mind and body, but it also helps to maintain your skin healthy. When you sleep, the blood flow to your skin rises, which aids in collagen synthesis and the healing of damage caused by UV exposure, pollution, dust, grime, and other factors. Dark circles, puffy eyes, and other signs of sleep deprivation are common.
