Let’s be real – we all have bad habits, it’s what makes us human. However, when it comes to your beauty routine, you could be making mistakes every day that are seriously hindering your glow-up. To take your daily regimen out of the danger zone, here are some bad beauty habits you need to ditch and what to do instead.
Bad Beauty Habit #1: Using a Towel to Dry your Hair
While most of us conclude our shower or bath by twisting our tresses into a towel, this is actually most likely to be damaging your hair. When you wash your hair, the water, especially when hot, will cause the hair cuticles to swell and open, leaving them vulnerable to frizz and damage. When the hair is wet and then twisted into a towel, the friction and tension can weaken your hair strands, permanently damaging your hair.
Bad Beauty Habit #2: Touching your Face and Picking Pimples
The average person touches their face 16 times an hour and every time you do, you’ll transfer dirt and bacteria onto your skin, which can clog your pores and lead to breakouts. Similarly, if you pick or squeeze your pimples, you’ll most likely break the skin and increase the likelihood of post-pimple pigmentation.
Bad Beauty Habit #3:Â Using Makeup Wipes
Not only are makeup wipes harmful to the environment, but they’re also not good for your skin. While they may appear to remove your makeup, they’ll never be able to remove dirt, impurities, and excess oil like a cleanser can. They can also be drying and irritating to your skin.
Bad Beauty Habit #4: Over-Exfoliating
As much as we love the feeling of freshly exfoliated skin, there’s such a thing as over-exfoliating. Done too often (or too vigorously), you won’t simply remove dead skin, you could also take off the top layer of your skin, damaging your skin barrier and leaving your skin open and inflamed and exposed to bacteria and irritation.
Bad Beauty Habit #5: Not Wearing Sunscreen
Wearing sunscreen daily, even in the winter, is the most important thing you can do for your skin. If you skip sunscreen, you’ll leave your skin vulnerable to sun damage, premature aging, pigmentation, and of course, skin cancer.
