We all want healthy, glowing skin and we all want to use the best skin care products on the market. Every day we find a lot of information about the best skin care and sometimes we implement everything and still don't see any results. Here are some of the most common skincare mistakes you're probably making, and how to fix them for glowing skin.
One of the most common — and most damaging — skincare mistakes is not removing your makeup at the end of the day. The evening care routine is an important part of the skin repair process. When you sleep, your skin has time to repair damaged cells and replenish moisture. One way the skin does this is by producing more of its own natural sebum.
We know that facial wipes are convenient, easy and quick to use, but there are a few drawbacks to using facial wipes. Facial wipes don't clean your skin thoroughly. They remove your make-up, but they also remove essential oils from the surface layers of the skin.
Another common mistake is over-exfoliating and cleansing the skin, both of which can damage the skin barrier. Excessive exfoliation can damage your skin's moisture barrier, which in turn can result in a host of problems, including inflammation, acne, irritation, and sensitivity.
All skin experts agree – wearing SPF daily is a non-negotiable factor for skin health. Not using effective sun protection methods can lead to skin cancer and accelerate the aging process. Never make this mistake again – and apply sunscreen every day, even in winter.
Some people think that oily skin doesn't need a moisturizer. Don't make this skincare mistake. It is important to know that every skin type needs a moisturizer. Using a moisturizer can even help your skin regulate its own natural oil production, resulting in fewer breakouts. Apply a moisturizer morning and night to protect your skin.
The correct order of applying your skin care routine is essential to keep your skin healthy and glowing. Because it matters what the quality of your skin products is and how you apply them to your skin. The wrong products for your skin can be ineffective (if certain products can't penetrate your skin properly, you can't get all the benefits from them) or worse, can irritate your skin. Using products in the wrong order can cause new skin problems.
