Mistake #1: Over-Exfoliating Exfoliation is fantastic for removing dead skin cells and revealing a fresher complexion, but too much of a good thing can be detrimental. Over-exfoliating can lead to skin irritation, redness, and dryness. Instead, aim to exfoliate 1-2 times a week, using a gentle exfoliant suitable for your skin type.
Mistake #2: Ignoring Sunscreen We can’t stress this enough – sunscreen is a must! Skipping sunscreen leaves your skin vulnerable to harmful UV rays, leading to premature aging, dark spots, and even skin cancer. Always use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30, and apply it generously every day, rain or shine.
