Why Your Skin is Misbehaving

Why Your Skin is Misbehaving

Everyone looking for blemish-free skin soon discovers just how difficult that look is to achieve. While having a good skincare routine that offers your skin exactly what it needs is a step in the right direction, there are some extra skincare tips and tricks that can help you improve your skin’s look and feel.

Follow these tips below to get blemish-free skin that everyone will notice!

Say "No" To Unhealthy Foods

Fast food, chips, crackers - all deliciously addictive, and all really bad for the skin. Foods that are high in sodium and grease can increase your skin’s oil production. Plus, these foods aren’t really high in nutrients anyways, and they affect your overall health.

Fresh foods that give your body enough vitamins and minerals can do wonders for your body, and your skin will also very much improve. For one thing, you can notice oil production beginning to decrease, meaning you won’t have to battle with your sebum production quite as much.

Add Retinol To Your Routine

Did you know that retinol is one of the most studied ingredients in skincare? It’s really a heavyweight in the industry, as it’s proven to directly address several different skincare issues. From reducing fine lines and wrinkles to smoothening the skin and even treating acne, there’s really not much retinol can’t be used for.

So make sure you look for a great retinol product to add to your skincare. While most formulations aren’t photosensitive, most dermatologists recommend using retinol at night, since that’s when your skin goes into its ‘repairing’ stage.

SPF Must Be Used Every Day. No Exceptions

If you’re not using SPF, you could have the single most amazing skincare routine, and still not see any improvement. The sun is responsible for a lot of skin damage, including premature aging. A good sunblock protects your skin from cancer-causing UVB rays that cause cancer, and the UVA rays that lead to aging, redness, and dark spots.

Daily use of SPF really makes a difference, and you’ll notice that your skin can look more even, brighter, and healthy.

Remove Your Makeup Every Night

It’s very tempting to skin your routine after a long day and sleeping with makeup on, but your skin will not be very happy about that. Cleansing is a very important part of a routine because it removes the dirt and oil accumulated during the day, but heavy make-up can also be considered ‘dirt’ in this case. It’s a layer of product that sits over the skin for hours, and if you don’t take it off before bed, your skin can feel suffocated by these products.

Stop Drying Your Face

The temptation for those with oilier skin to rely too much on drying products is huge, but this approach can actually make your skin produce more oil. If you’re also the kind of person who completely skips moisturizers, your skin is likely not having a great time right now.

There are plenty of oil-free moisturizers that can keep the skin hydrated and not add additional oils to your face. A good moisturizer creates a barrier on your face and prevents water from escaping, which can lead to dryness or even excess sebum production.
