A lot of people struggle with acne and other skin problems. We can't just expect acne or skin irritation to clear without putting these things into consideration because the things we do not pay attention to can make skin problems re-occur or even worsen them. Here are some things we should avoid doing to make the skin better:

  1. Staying dehydrated ( not drinking enough water): Dehydration can make the skin dry and itchy, so you should drink enough water. At least two liters of water daily.

  2. Constantly picking your face: Avoid picking your face because it can increase the chances of your skin breaking out and also lead to the appearance of dark spots

  3. Using your body towel on your face: This is very unhealthy for the face, using a body towel on your face can transfer bacteria and viruses causing pimples or skin infections.

  4. Sleeping with your makeup on: Sleeping with your makeup on can cause enlarged pores and clogged specks of dirt in your pores.

  5. Not exfoliating or over-exfoliating your face: Your skin is at risk if you don’t exfoliate, you may end up with clogged pores, and dull and dead skin. Over-exfoliating irritates the skin and causes it to age quickly. Exfoliating your skin should be done twice a week.

  6. Using dirty makeup brushes for your face: Using dirty makeup brushes can transfer the dirt to the face.

  7. Not changing your bedsheets and pillowcase frequently: Sleeping on dirty bedsheets or pillows can transfer the dirt to the skin.

  8. Changing skincare products frequently: Changing products frequently affect your skin, it’ll irritate your skin.

  9. Applying skincare products in the wrong order: The right order is a face wash, face scrub/exfoliator, face mask, face serum, face moisturizer, eye cream, and sunscreen.

  10. Not wearing sunscreen before leaving the house: Exposing your skin to the sun without sunscreen can lead to sunburn or even skin cancer.

Remember, skin problems such as acne, hyperpigmentation, sunburn Etcetera don't clear out in a few days. They need patience and consistency.
