Are You Forgetting These Skincare Basics?
You can get all the plastic surgery, fillers and whatnot you want - but if you’re not doing the basics to help your skin, it’s basically all a waste of time. So before you consider anything more invasive - ask yourself - are you skipping these basics first?
Not Wearing Sunscreen
If you think that you only need to wear sunscreen when you’re heading to the beach or going somewhere hot or – if you live somewhere hot – only when the sun is strong, this is a big mistake to make. You could be causing some serious damage to your skin because of your way of thinking.
The fact is the sun’s rays and the UV rays that do the most damage can hurt you even when you don’t realize it. On dull, cloudy days, UV light can still affect your skin. In fact, this is even more dangerous since you won’t feel the heat and won’t take steps to get out of the sun. The best thing you can do is apply sunscreen every day before you go outside. Get into this habit, and you’ll protect your skin much more.
Not Exfoliating
The standard skincare routine for most people is to cleanse, tone, and moisturize. This is a good start, but it’s missing one vital component – exfoliating. When you exfoliate, you remove the dead skin cells that amass on your face as a matter of course. When you remove them, your skin will look much healthier, plus it means that the other elements of your skincare routine will work much better.
Exfoliating can be done in many ways; you can create your own organic scrub, but a medicated one, or even use a specialist piece of equipment from mynuface.com as your final step in your skincare routine. Whatever you choose, make sure you can keep up the routine, as it will certainly benefit you.
Popping Pimples
There can’t be many people in the world who have never popped a pimple. For some, it’s a satisfying, even enjoyable experience. Others think it’s what they have to do to remove the issue. However, whether you like it or not, it’s actually a mistake to pop your pimples; you will often be doing a lot more harm than good.
By popping pimples, you are leaving yourself open to a number of different problems, including:
Scarring
Infection
Wrinkles
Itchy skin
Rather than popping pimples, you should use a warm compress to reduce the swelling and then apply either natural or medicated cream to help lessen the soreness. Ideally, you should investigate what it is that’s causing the breakout (especially if it’s unusual) and work on the root cause to prevent further pimples from occurring.
