Four Spooky Skincare and Makeup Mistakes to Beware of

If you can’t get enough of all things skincare and makeup, you need to make sure you are avoiding some common beauty and skincare mistakes! Have no fear—this week in the blog, we are going through four scary mistakes to beware of, as well as recommendations on how to fix each mistake so you can have a flawless-looking appearance in no time!

Mistake #1: Sleeping with Makeup On

While falling asleep with our makeup on may be something we are all guilty of, it is a major makeup mistake to beware of! Sleeping in your makeup can lead to clogged pores and an uneven skin tone, which is something we want to avoid. Instead, we recommend using our Forever Clean Gentle Cleanser to help gently cleanse away dirt, oil, and impurities to help restore balance to your complexion.  

Mistake #2: Not Properly Prepping the Skin

The second makeup mistake to beware of is not properly prepping your skin before applying makeup. Using a moisturizer and a primer before applying your makeup can help keep your makeup on longer and help soothe the look of your skin. We recommend applying Tropical C Brightening Vitamin C & Peptide Moisturizer and our No Filter Primer Blurring Photography Primer to help hydrate and prime the skin for a natural, radiant-looking finish.

Mistake #3: Applying Skincare in the Wrong Order

A common skincare mistake to try to avoid is applying your skincare products in the wrong order. Applying your skincare in order of products with a thinner consistency, such as our fan-favorite Go with the Glow Niacinamide Drops, before applying any products with a thicker consistency, such as our age-defying Get A Lift Firming Facial Cream Moisturizer, can help each product better absorb into the skin to get more dramatic-looking results.

Mistake #4: Not Sticking to a Skincare Routine

To see results from your skincare, it is important that you consistently use a product for at least a month! If you are not sure how to create a skincare routine, start by choosing a cleanser based on your skin type. A skincare routine example for someone with oily skin would be starting with Sea Fresh Purifying Gel Foaming Cleanser to help deeply cleanse skin before applying a serum such as Ceretin Boost Age Defying Retinol Serum. As a final step, help lock in hydration with our 4-in-1 Cloud Cream Gel-to-Water Hydrating Essence Moisturizer for a simple 3-step daily skincare routine.
