If you're anything like me, breakouts are the worst and sometimes there isn't any makeup that will cover it. But being a lazy girl, sometimes it is inevitable. Luckily, there are a few habits anyone can start without the effort of an elaborate routine that will drastically make your face healthier and happier. Start with one of these tips and it should already start to help.
1. Stop touching your face!
This is the biggest and most important. I know this is a struggle as I still notice myself holding my hand to my face when I'm bored or tired. You are transferring so many germs, dirt, and oils back and forth every time you touch your face. If you're one that tends to lean on your hand try wearing sleeves! Make the sleeve touch your face instead of your hand.
2. Invest in some silk pillowcases.
They are a little more expensive than cotton but try looking on some discount websites, it is easy to find a good set for cheap. I don't know the science behind this but it really does help not only your skin but your hair as well.
3. Keep your face away from your pup.
I know you love your dog but don't let her lick your face, and stop rubbing your face against hers. I love pupper snuggles more than anyone but lets face it: dogs are dirty. Pet fur is a main contributor to those pesky pimples.
4. Wash your face at night!
You don't need an elaborate routine just take off your makeup and wash your face. Makeup is a killer when left on all night. Just leaving it on for one night and you'll wake up with a mountain the next morning.
5. Remove your makeup before your sweat sessions.
Speaking of taking off your makeup, take it off before you sweat aka the gym. Sweating with makeup on is horrendous for your pores. They will be so clogged and no one wants that.
6. Treat yourself to a face mask once a week.
Whether you like the sheet ones, or ones you rub on your face and wash off they are helpful! They can be cheap, and fun. Make a night out of it with your friends and grab some wine.
