7 HABITS YOU MUST BREAK FOR GREAT SKIN



  1. Drinking too little water: This skincare mantra cannot be overemphasized. Water makes a great difference
  2. Touching your face: This often happens when one has a pimple. This habit is one the major causes of fungal rashes and breakouts as germs are transferred
  3. Ignoring the unseen areas: Some parts of the body do not receive much attention until it is too late. We mainly discover how grey and rough the backs of our ankles or elbows look when we wear short sleeves or sandals.
  4. Sleeping with make up on: Take it all of no matter how tired you may be. This gives your skin a chance to benefit from your body's natural restoration process while you sleep.
  5. Using large quantities of greasy hair products: These tend to run down the face and case breakouts.
  6. Using steroid creams for every problem: It is common to rush to the nearest chemist for a quick-acting cream whenever a breakout happens. While steroid creams have their place in treating the skin, they are not a panacea for every condition. It is best to see a professional for advice.
  7. A poor diet: No eating several servings of fruit and vegetables make the skin sluggish. Increase your intake to protect the skin cells by neutralizing damaging and ageing free radicals
