Skipping sunscreen: Exposing your skin to harmful UV rays without protection can lead to premature aging, sunburn, and an increased risk of skin cancer.
Not removing makeup before bed: Leaving makeup on overnight can clog pores, leading to breakouts and dull-looking skin.
Overwashing your face: Cleansing too often or with harsh products can strip your skin of its natural oils, leading to dryness, irritation, and even more breakouts.
Using hot water: Washing your face or showering with hot water can strip your skin of moisture, leaving it dry and irritated. Opt for lukewarm water instead.
Picking at blemishes: Picking or popping pimples can lead to inflammation, scarring, and the spread of bacteria, worsening acne.
Ignoring your neck and chest: Your neck and chest are often neglected areas when it comes to skincare. They can show signs of aging just like your face, so be sure to extend your skincare routine to these areas.
Not getting enough sleep: Lack of sleep can lead to dull, tired-looking skin and exacerbate existing skin issues like dark circles and puffiness around the eyes.
