Five Mistakes You Make When Washing Your Face

Skin care is an affordable task that can give you a skin with a young glow and appearance for years. However, it is possible that you do not wash your face.

In this article, we provide a little insight into the most common facial care mistakes many people make that make your skin look older. Based on the information from this article, you may understand why you are suddenly starting to get wrinkles and blemishes on your skin.

1. You have no surplus to wash your face

The biggest mistake most people make is not cleaning their face at all. You may not see the big problem in going straight to bed without removing your makeup or cleansing your face. After all, you have to take a bath the next morning, and then you can wash the dirt away, right?

But the big problem with going straight to bed without first cleaning your face is that makeup, pollution and dirt accumulate in the face and block the pores. This will then result in you getting easier at developing acne on faces, which is also the beginning of the first wrinkles and imperfections.

However, you do not have to overcomplicate the process as you just need to wash your face with a mild soap and water. If you prefer something more moisturizing, try this spray:

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup chamomile
• 2 tablespoons cucumber water
• 2 tablespoons aloe vera gel

Course of action

• Mix all the ingredients and store the mixture in a bottle with a spray head.
• Spray plenty of the mixture on the desired area and use a cotton ball to clean your face.

• Finish by washing your face in a little water and going to bed. The next morning you will see that you have got a smoother, healthier and perfect skin.

2. Do not use a scrub when washing your face

Above we mentioned that the most common mistake is not to remove makeup in the evening. But that’s just the first mistake in the series. Scrubs remove toxins and dirt that have accumulated in the deepest layers of the skin.

Ideally, you should use an exfoliant that fits your skin type perfectly. This will help you cleanse the skin and fight the most common skin problems.

• If you have sensitive skin, use gentle and moisturizing exfoliants.
• If your skin is oily, use exfoliants that deal with the problem without dehydrating your skin.

In addition, it is a very good idea to exfoliate your face once a week as it gives you a deep cleansing without removing the skin’s natural oils. Only in very extreme cases it is necessary to exfoliate the skin twice a week.

We also recommend that you choose a natural exfoliant when you need to clean your face.

3. You wash your face once a day

Even if you remove your makeup and wash your face the night before, always remember to wash your face every morning. F or growing namely bacteria on your skin while you sleep. In addition, there are also many mites and cleaning residues in your bed and pollutants in the air.

To avoid all this becoming a problem, wash your face with soap and water as well as the cleansing spray that we mentioned the recipe for above.

If your skin is very oily or if you have just been to the gym, you should also wash your face.

If your skin is very dry, use a moisturizing cream instead of washing your face as otherwise it will just aggravate the problem.

4. You change products quickly

If you are frustrated that none of your products wash your face, or have the desired effect, you may be able to make this mistake.

Unfortunately, we tend to get desperate, and want the perfect look in minutes. But it is important that you use both commercial products and homemade products several times before you can start to see the desired effect.

You can expect to see changes at least after 4 weeks of using a product. But it is only after 6 weeks that you can really start to see that your products are working.

This means in other words that if you use the same cleansing gel for a week to shrink your pores, you will never achieve the desired result if you change product after one week. You need to allow your skin to adapt to the product, and only then can you begin to feel the benefits.

5. Uses too many products at once

You may be of the belief that you will achieve a better result if you cleanse your face with several different products. But that’s wrong. You need to choose one product that will help you with each and every one of your needs.

Because it will only irritate your skin if you use several products to get rid of the same problem and it will only aggravate the problem. For example, if you use a skin tonic, do not use soap or cream.

It will also save you a lot of money as you only have to buy two or three products.
