Sometimes it seems like no matter what we do, our skin will never be perfect. While that’s entirely true, that’s no excuse to just let things fall to the wayside and get downright out of hand. We may never have perfectly smooth, clear skin, but there are certain mistakes we all make that we can fix, to be on the road to clearer skin. Below are the five worst skin mistakes we all make, plus solutions for how to fix them.
1. Not taking your makeup off at night.One surefire way to justify not taking your makeup off at night? Getting into bed or even just laying down before you take your makeup off.
2. Only wearing SPF at the beach. if you’re skipping the SPF on the days you’re heading to school or the office, your future self is going to be ticked when wrinkles and dark spots start showing up before the ripe old age of 25.
3. Popping pimples at home. when you pop a pimple, you likely haven’t washed your face and hands first, you’re breaking skin and immediately putting dirt and oils into the open skin. This can cause infections and much, much larger issues, like more aggressive acne and scarring.
4. Touching your face throughout the day.We don’t notice it throughout the day, like Door knobs, keyboards, elevator buttons, subway railings, restaurant menus, credit cards and, possibly worst of all, your cell phone. But make a point of stopping yourself when you go to put your hands on your face. Plus, washing your hands more often wouldn’t hurt, either.
5. Skipping moisturizer because your skin is too oily. In the summer especially, many of us tend to skip moisturizer because it seems that nature has done the work for us in the form of oily skin. The quick fix to this mistake is simply finding a moisturizer specifically formulated for oily skin.
