1. Not Cleansing Enough A poor skincare regimen can gradually do damage to the skin because it may not properly eliminate impurities, dead skin cells and excess oils.

Wash your face twice daily – once in the morning & before going to bed Cleansing with water is not enough.

Use non-comedogenic & hypoallergenic facial cleansers. (

Tip :

Use ones with scrubbing

beads to cleanse & exfoliate all at once)

2. Skipping Moisturizer Every skin type needs a moisturizer.

Moisturizers allay skin aging by keeping moisture and water in your skin.

It contains emollients to fill in the gaps of skin cells and humectants to retain moisture.

It makes the skin smooth, supple and healthy.

3. No Sunscreen Sun exposure age the skin by causing uneven skin pigmentation and fine lines.

Strike a good balance: Limit sun exposure to at least 15-20 minutes to get your daily dose of Vitamin D. Apply sunscreen on your face, neck, arms and legs.

Use sunscreen that has an SPF of at least 30, or greater.

It must have broad spectrum protection to protect you from UVA & UVB rays.

4. Make-up Blunders The wrong products and techniques can make your face look older.

In applying make-up, remember that less is better.

A light foundation to even out your skin tone is enough.

Use cream blushes or foundation because powders tend to settle on fine lines and wrinkles.

5. Not Enough Sleep Lack of sleep can stress out your skin.

7-9 hours of sleep can help make the skin appear luminous and radiant.

Your skin and your whole body go into repair mode when you sleep.

Sleep is a time when the body produces growth hormones, which are essential in collagen production.

Skin regeneration at night can make you lose 25% more water, but a moisturizer can help you retain those stores.

Too much sugar may lead to poor skin elasticity.

Too much caffeine can lead to dry and dehydrated skin.

Bulk up on skin foods that are rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and Vitamin E, Selenium and Zinc.

10. Weight Issues Being underweight reduces natural fats in your facial structure.

Having a healthy weight means better fat distribution.

Frequent weight fluctuation can also result in loss of skin elasticity, accelerating the development of jowls and folds.

11. Stress Chronic stress wears down your skin’s antimicrobial barrier because of the hormone, cortisol.

Without your antimicrobial barrier, your body’s ability to retain moisture is impaired, while environmental irritants can easily cause inflammation.

High cortisol levels can also decrease collagen production.

12. Sweet Tooth High blood sugar levels result in the formation of AGEs – toxic compounds that prevent collagen and elastin repair.

It will result in wrinkles, sagging, and dark circles around the eyes.

Increased blood sugar levels can also trigger premature cellular senescence (loss of a cell’s ability to grow and divide) resulting in premature skin aging.

Avoid food options that are teeming in processed sugar and opt for GI foods (low sugar content) to promote chemical balance in your system.

Choose healthier and natural options for sugar like honey or stevia.
