Skin Care Mistakes
Every woman in the world wants to have clear, smooth and radiant skin. Unfortunately, most women have no idea how to get it. Before reaching out for that miracle product that costs a fortune or spending a chunk of your savings on an advanced skincare procedure, try focusing on the possible skincare mistakes you are making first. Even the smallest mistake can have a significant negative impact on your skin’s appearance and state of health. Here are the biggest skin care mistakes women should be aware of.
1.Using Sunscreen Only During Summertime
Not protecting your skin from the harmful rays of the sun is among the biggest mistakes you can do to your skin. Not only does this increase your risk of skin cancer but it also rapidly ages your skin. Sooner or later, you will start noticing age lines and other skin aging signs even when you are still in your 20s or 30s. You need sunscreen every time you go out, even on cloudy days because the sun’s harmful rays can still reach your skin. Make sure to use it correctly and re-apply as needed to ensure optimal sun protection.
- Not Washing Your Face before Going to Bed
Come on, it only takes a little over a minute to cleanse your face and dry it. Going to bed with dirt, excess oil and makeup is one of the biggest triggers of acne. It can also cause enlarged pores and blemishes. You can use no-rinse face wipes if you’re really too lazy but it is still best to use a cleanser to wash your face before bedtime.
- Exfoliating Too Much
A common mistake is over-exfoliating if you see just one tiny blemish. Going hard and scrubbing your skin too much can irritate the skin and cause problems. Remember that you should only exfoliate once or twice a week depending on your skin type. Daily is just too much regardless of your skin type.
- Buying Cheap Products Only
If you want the best results possible from your skin care products, you need to invest a little. There are also affordable products that are effective. You just need to examine every product first and check the active ingredients to make sure it is really effective. Don’t focus on fancy labels and impressive claims but instead, look for proven active ingredients. For anti-aging skin products, look for proven peptides, retinoid and potent moisturizing ingredients.
- Using the Wrong Formulations
Careful research and some trial-and-error are needed to find the best products for your skin type. Thus, you should first know your skin type in order to determine which products are best for you. Knowing your skin type is the foundation for your entire skin care regimen. Again, research is important in order to learn about the active ingredients of a product and determine if it really works or not.
- Not Giving a Skincare Product Enough Time to Work
It is natural to be impatient but throwing away your anti-wrinkle serum like Celleral after only a few days/weeks is a big mistake. For most active ingredients, it takes around 6 to 8 weeks to deliver results. Most products that claim to deliver instant or very quick results are just lying. You should also incorporate new formulations into your skincare regimen slowly (one every 4 to 8 weeks). This is because your skin needs time to build up a tolerance to potent ingredients such as those that fight skin aging.
- Not Getting Quality Sleep
The skin’s renewal process mostly occurs during sleep. This is one of the reasons you should try to get at least 7 hours of quality, uninterrupted sleep every night. Have you noticed that your skin looks tired and dull if you haven’t gotten enough sleep the previous night?
Take note of these major mistakes that you should avoid if you want to have healthy and beautiful skin. You may be guilty of one or several of these offenses which may be the reason you don’t have the skin you’ve always wanted.
