10. Universal creams
Many ladies are too lazy to bother with the selection of creams that are suitable for the type of skin, so they buy universal ones. In fact, such funds do not exist.
The fact is that in the composition of cosmetic products there are certain substances that are suitable for a certain type of skin, for example, for dry skin, it is undesirable to use a cream that contains such a component as zinc.
Also, to stay as young and attractive as possible should use night and day creams. Night ones are considered more nutritious; they saturate the cells of the dermis and regenerate them. Daytime products are quickly absorbed, moisturize the skin well and serve as an excellent foundation for applying makeup.

Girls and women are often not indifferent to strong pleasant aromas, so they try to buy soap that smells delicious. Beauticians advise to avoid such funds.

Such a soap will dry the skin, can cause allergies, asthma, dermatitis, eczema and chronic rhinitis.
8. Sunblock creams
Experts in the field of beauty recommend the fair sex to abandon the use of sunblock creams, here they should not be confused with protective equipment against ultraviolet rays.

Modern cosmetologists advise young girls not to adopt this habit. Toothpaste really eliminates acne, as it is able to dry the skin, but it contains quite aggressive components that can cause a burn, leave a scar.
If acne does not go away even after using the above remedies, then you should consult a doctor.

Many women love to lie in a hot relaxing bath, especially after a hard day in the cold winter.
But few people think that a hot bath harms the skin of the face, the protective layer is washed off, which means that access to bacteria and microbes is facilitated, and high-temperature water helps accelerate the aging process of the dermis on the face, neck and hands.
If there is no strength to cope with the habit, and a cool shower is simply unbearable, you will have to at least reduce the time spent in hot water and take a bath no longer than 15 minutes.
2. Homemade scrubs
The era of affordable Internet allows ladies to independently seek out interesting recipes for skin care products.
Homemade scrubs are in great demand, but it is worth noting that they are absolutely not suitable for cleansing the skin on the face. The dermis in this place is very tender, and home-made scrubs based on sea salt or ground coffee can damage it.
After a couple of such procedures, the skin will become very sensitive, in addition, such scrubs can damage the deeper layers of the epidermis, which will lead to the appearance of rashes, blackheads and acne, as well as such funds can disrupt the relief of the skin of the face.
If there is a need to use a scrub, then special professional cosmetics should be preferred. Homemade scrubs are well suited for the fight against cellulite, perfectly relieve dead skin cells on the body.
