Avoid this to take care of your facial skin!
Getting perfect skin is a challenge for every beauty lover. If you are spending time, effort and money without seeing the difference, the problem may be in the beauty routine that you follow. Good habits are key to maintaining youthful, smooth and luminous skin for longer. The expert facialists reveal what you’ve been doing wrong up to now.
Exfoliate the skin more than recommended.
With exfoliation, the skin breathes better, cellular oxygenation is stimulated and the nutrients and active principles of the products and moisturising creams that we apply later are absorbed. But be careful not to do it more than once or twice a week! It can cause dryness and inflammation, destroying healthy cells and promoting skin hyperpigmentation.
Misuse of acne products.
Acne products should only be used on the affected areas, if you apply them all over your face, they can dry out the skin and cause an overproduction of oil, which, far from solving the problem, will aggravate it. It is advisable to perform a gentle exfoliation, disinfect the area with a natural astringent such as a tea tree and moisturise it.
Too much eye contour.
A good contour helps us prevent and eliminate bags and wrinkles. However, it is not advisable to use the product in excess, many of these creams contain oils that are not easily absorbed by the skin and that accumulate causing pimples and the appearance of “oily skin”.
Do not use sunscreen throughout the year
In winter, UVA and UVB rays continue to affect our skin. The sun is one of the main factors in the photoaging of our skin. Using sun cream throughout the year prevents the appearance of wrinkles and spots on the skin.
Sleep without removing makeup or doing it with cleansing wipes.
Did you know that a person who sleeps with makeup ages the equivalent of three days? Makeup clogs pores, increasing the chance of acne or worsening it and causing signs of premature ageing. Also, if you are used to using make-up remover wipes, you should know that they do not remove all the active ingredients of the product, so facial cleansing is incomplete.
Bad eating habits.
Processed food does not have essential nutrients and provides a large amount of sugar, salt and saturated fat, in addition, they dehydrate, one of the main causes of wrinkles and expression lines.
Social toxins
Tobacco, in addition to producing lung diseases and the risk of cancer, also destroys collagen, accelerating ageing. Alcohol dehydrates and produces flaccidity.
Sleep on your side.
If you are in the habit of sleeping on one side of your face, you will soon discover that the nasolabial fold on that side is more pronounced. It is best to sleep on your back.
