5 nos make the skin increasingly dull and dehydrated

Catching mistakes helps you adjust your lifestyle and get the skin you want.

Bright, glowing skin is the dream of most women. However, some daily habits can make skin dull, dry even with good care.

Not applying enough sunscreen

It is necessary to use sunscreen every day to protect the skin, avoid sunburn, and reduce the risk of developing skin cancer. In order for sunscreen to maximize its skin protection, it is necessary to apply a sufficient amount of cream, creating an even and thick layer of coverage on the skin. The amount of standard sunscreen enough to protect the skin is about 2mg/square centimeter, equivalent to about 1 small coin for the face.

Not moisturizing

Moisturizing is an extremely important step in your daily skin care routine. In the summer, you can choose moisturizers with a light, gel-like texture to help the cream absorb quickly into the skin, without causing uncomfortable stickiness.

Thorough moisturizing will help the skin stay hydrated, plump, thereby helping the skin to have a shiny, smooth stretch.

Don't Exfoliate

As new cells form, old cells die and fall off. This layer of cells, when not removed from the skin, will be the residence of sweat glands and sebaceous glands, easily leading to acne, melasma... 

The steps to remove makeup and wash your face cannot remove dead cells, making the skin dull and lifeless. However, too much exfoliation is also not good for the skin.

Exfoliation is recommended 1-2 times per week depending on skin type. For example, dry skin should only exfoliate once a week to not make the skin dry more. Meanwhile, oily and combination skin can do the exfoliating twice a week if you have time.

Periodic exfoliation will contribute to improving all of the above problems of the skin, helping the skin to absorb the cream from cosmetics better.‏

Not washing your face properly

Washing your face helps to clean the skin, remove dirt, sebum to help open pores. However, washing your face too thoroughly or too many times a day can strip the skin of its natural oils. You should choose a cleanser that is suitable for your skin, without creating a tight feeling after washing your face. Along with that, you should only wash your face with a facial cleanser up to 2 times a day in the morning and evening, do not wash more.

Not going to bed on time‏

A deep, enough sleep has great benefits for the skin and body. Try to get 7-8 hours of sleep every night to help your skin rejuvenate and repair itself, giving it a youthful, bright and vibrant appearance.
