Wondering if your efforts to have perfect skin are actually working? Even if you take the time and invest in beauty products and exfoliate regularly, you may notice new wrinkles. Why is this happening;

See if you make any of the following mistakes in your daily skincare routine and sabotage yourself a little with the appearance of wrinkles (in terms of appearing).

1. Improper facial cleansing

Rubbing your face vigorously, especially around the eyes, while removing makeup can cause fine lines and wrinkles. This often happens when you’re tired and in a rush to finish, or when your cleanser isn’t performing as well as you’d like. In addition, excessive friction can also lead to loss of eyelashes, making you look more mature. To avoid this mistake, spend one to two minutes cleaning your face and prefer the double cleansing method with a balm and a cleansing gel for quick and effective results.

2. You say no to SPF

Unprotected sun exposure, even on cloudy days, is responsible for 80% of the signs of aging. Many women only use sunscreen in the summer or rely on the SPF15 of their BB cream, which is not enough. To protect your skin from UV rays and premature aging, apply a high SPF sunscreen to your face, neck and décolleté daily and reapply throughout the day.

3. Skip your moisturizer

Many women skip the moisturizer either because they are bored, or because they are in a hurry to go to bed, or because they put more emphasis on makeup in the morning. The lines you see on your face may be the result of dehydration rather than deep set wrinkles. It is important to apply moisturizer morning and night to keep your skin hydrated and glowing.

By avoiding these mistakes, you can help your skin stay young and glowing for longer.
