Three Common Skincare Mistakes

Almost every woman makes mistakes when taking care of her skin, before collecting enough information and experience about the proper skin care regime. Here are three of the most common mistakes that women do when taking care of their skin.

Mistake 1 - Washing your face with soap

Soaps dry your skin. It's true that they make the skin
absolutely clean and bright, they remove the blackheads,
but the true is that the soap harms your skin. The soap
stimulates the secretion of the sebaceous glands, which
means more blackheads formation after every cleansing.
You had better use a tonic, cleansing lotion or gels that
are specially designed for facial cleansing.

Mistake 2 - Not removing the makeup in the evening

There is no need to say how harmful this is for your skin �
the deep-rooted during the day dust, powder, mascara, makeup and the natural skin secretions remain on the skin during the whole night and the result is a sad consequences � clogged pores, pimples formation, acceleration of oils and most importantly your skin cannot 'breathe'.

The reason for not removing the makeup usually is the late
going to bed. That's why you should keep a pack of wet
cleansing wipes on your bedside table or you can simple
remove the makeup earlier. Cleanse the face with cleansing
milk, tonic or gel, apply night cream and enjoy a calm night.
It's the same and for the boys � the facial cleansing isn't
just for the girls.

Mistake 3 � You don't use an eye cream

The eye area is the first to show any signs of ageing. In
this area the skin is most delicate and forms wrinkles easily. Applying an eye cream is especially essential for those over 25. That's why you should choose appropriate for you eye cream and apply it both in the morning and in the evening.
