There are many beauty mistakes we know of that hinder our looks – not wearing sunglasses and sunscreen, smoking, sleeping with makeup on. The list goes on, but here are some more beauty mistakes to avoid that can be added to that. Stress and long work hours put much pressure on our bodies so it’s important to protect them by caring for health as well as the looks.

Skipping Morning Exercise

Don’t skip the morning exercise as it is not only a good workout opportunity it also gives an energy boost in the morning and improves immune systems that fights off viruses and diseases. Besides, it can be a great morning ritual that helps shaking off the sleepiness.

Over-Cleansing Skin

Over-cleansing skin can lead to irritation and other skin problems. It can also stimulate the oil production which will make the oily skin look even more oily. Avoid this beauty mistake as you can strip skin of natural oil that helps protect it from dehydration and irritation.

Self-Medication &Treatment

Self-medication and self-treatment are dangerous and can cause health problems. Any medical product including vitamin supplements should be used only under doctor’s supervision or after a consultation. Many think that there can’t be too many vitamins, but what they may not realize is that vitamin overdose is possible and one needs to know what vitamins their organism needs before taking any. So consult your doctor beforehand.

Ignoring Your Allergies

Know your allergies and choose cosmetic products according to your skin’s needs. Some ingredients may trigger the allergy so it’s better stop using the cosmetics that includes those ingredients and choose something that fits you. Also do not ignore the expiration date on the cosmetic products. It’s simply dangerous to use the expired products.

Sharing Cosmetics & Tools with a Friend

Even if it’s your closest friend, even if it’s a relative. Do not share cosmetic products and tools with anyone. Even if you think they are healthy. This is a simple rule of thumb. Want healthy glowing skin? Use individual brushes and wash them once a week or two weeks and let them air dry.
