1. You apply beauty products containing SLS
This widespread detergent causes skin dehydration. However, if you start replenishing skin with water after exposing it to SLS products, then you will lead to intensified sebum production. Many people are allergic to SLS, however, they keep washing their faces using beauty products containing SLS. In short, skin treated with this substance will become dehydrated and at the same time greasy, but that’s not all. Additionally, skin blemishes will appear fast as a sensation of uncomfortably tight skin is likely to be experienced.
2. You keep touching your face throughout a day
During a day, there are countless numbers of bacteria and germs that find their home on our hands. If you happened to touch a handle in a shop or handlebars in a metro train, if you have held money or patted a dog, then under no circumstances should you touch the face with your hands. The germs transported to your face might cause acne and irritation. Anyway, constant face touching encourages sebaceous glands to secrete more sebum too.
3. You don’t use face toner
Toner is considered as an essential beauty product in skin care. Its task is to freshen up, cleanse and moisturize skin as well as balance skin’s pH. Toners serve best in the morning when they add energy to sleepy face and prepare skin for further care and make-up.
4. You skip lip care
We tend to treat it unfairly, skip while taking care of face skin, don’t provide enough protection during winter. As it turns out, lips require our special care because due to its delicacy and sensitiveness, they are exceptionally prone to dehydration, stinging and epidermal damages. The easiest way to take the proper care of lips is sugar scrub and application of a thick layer of lip balm.
5. You remove eye and face make-up at the same time
It must be realized that there are two separate cosmetics needed to wipe off eye and face makeup. Eyelid skin has different structure than the rest of the face, and eyelashes are exposed to falling out and weakening. Besides, you probably like using waterproof mascaras that have to be removed with beauty products which are designed to take off this type of colour cosmetics.
