You should never forget to washing your face; no matter how tired you are, you should always do it; but this does not mean that you can do it with any product or without following a specific order. By doing it correctly, you can prevent wrinkles and even other skin problems.
Here are the mistakes that are commonly made and can accelerate aging and cause wrinkles:
Using the wrong cleanser for your skin type
Choosing a cleaner that is incompatible with your skin can irritate and even deteriorate the skin’s outer barrier that protects against dirt and UV rays. washing your face
Washing only once a day
Bacteria not only accumulate on your face during the day but also at night, so you should wash it after waking up and before going to sleep.
Exfoliating too much
Exfoliation can be done once or twice a week; doing more often than twice a week could cause micro lesions on the skin and even irritate your skin.
Using hot water
Boiling water will cause dryness and even remove the natural oils you need to keep your skin hydrated. The idea is not to use extreme temperature; lukewarm water is the way to go when cleansing your face.
