NAUGHTY or NICE

👹 NAUGHTY Skin Habits:
 
❌ SLEEPING IN MAKEUP.  This can clog pores and cause or aggravate perioral dermatitis/mites overgrowth.
 
❌ HOT WATER/STEAM. Heat dilates blood vessels, which can worsen rosacea and hyperpigmentation including melasma.
 
I often advise my patients to splash their faces with cold water after a hot shower or workout. Keep a cold towel on your face in the sauna or hot tub. If you bake, turn your face away when you open the oven door.
 
❌ DRINKING FROM STRAWS.
 
👼 NICE Skin Habits:
 
⭐️ GENTLE CLEANSING to protect your skin barrier.
 
⭐️ EATING GREEN & RED VEGGIES.  Studies show this helps soften fine lines around the eyes.  Details in my book, FEED YOUR FACE, available on Amazon.com. 
 
⭐️ USING ANTIOXIDANTS (Vitamin C; Niacinamide; Bakuchiol) to fight free radical damage to your skin.
