Instructions:

1.Do not use the proper cleaner. Using a common soap is one of the main mistakes made when washing the face, as it removes the natural oils from the skin making it more vulnerable to irritations and dryness. The ideal? Choose a soft lotion with moisturizing and soothing components that is appropriate to your skin type (normal, mixed or greasy, dry).

You will find lotions in gel, milk or cream, mi cellar water ... and if you do not know very well which to decanter, we invite you to discover it by reading the article How to choose a facial cleanser . 

2.Do not wash your hands before. If you do not wash and disinfect your hands before beginning facial cleansing, all the accumulated bacteria and dirt will move to the skin of the face. Dedicate even a minute to wash your hands with a specific soap for it and rinse thoroughly with plenty of water. Then you can clean your face with complete security.

3.Rinse with warm water. Although in winter you prefer to use hot water, this is a mistake that you should avoid at all costs by washing your face, as it compromises the health of the skin. The very hot water causes the removal of the natural oils that protect the dermis, leaving it drier. Therefore, it is best to rinse the face with warm or cold water to keep the skin smoother and radiant.

4.Exfoliation sparse or exaggerated. Undoubtedly , the exfoliation of the face is a task that must be carried out to eliminate dead cells and favor the process of renewal and regeneration of the skin. However, a mistake when washing the face is very common to exfoliate the skin too much or, on the contrary, never to do so. Ideally, dry skins should be exfoliated once a week and oily skins twice a week to stay free of impurities. Do not overdo the exfoliation as it could cause severe irritations on the skin of the face.

5.Abuse of facial wipes. These are perfect for removing makeup quickly on specific occasions, but not to replace your facial cleanser every day. They provide a very superficial cleaning and do not remove the dirt and residue accumulated in the pores, so it is always advisable to wash the face with a facial cleanser and then moisturize in depth.

6.Do not change the towel. We close the list of common mistakes when washing face with one that many girls commit: use the same towel for many times. It is essential that the towel you use to dry your face is completely clean, otherwise the bacteria and germs you have accumulated will pass directly to your face, making the facial cleansing you just performed is useless.
