Skin Habits

by

Most skin problems arise due to poor diet and bad skincare habits. If you aren’t eating a healthy diet, you are weakening your skin from the inside. Similarly, hiding skin problems, using DIY methods, and not seeing a dermatologist on time can escalate the problems. For example, if you need a concealer all the time, you aren’t following a suitable skincare routine.

Here’re the poor skincare habits that are doing more harm to your skin than good

Over-scrubbing your skin

Facial scrub is necessary to exfoliate and cleanse your face. It removes dead skin cells to unveil the healthy skin underneath the flaky skin cells. However using facial scrubs too often can result in flaky, dry, and sensitive skin. You will notice that your skin has become tight and shiny due to redness. Exfoliate your skin according to its condition like 5 times a week for oily skin and once a week for sensitive skin. Also, you should use only chemical-based facial scrubs that are safe for all skin types.

Relying solely on an anti-wrinkle cream

An anti-aging cream can do wonders for your skin but why wait for wrinkles and fine lines to appear on your face. If you moisturize your skin regularly, you … Read more
