Habits Too Hard to Quit...
But Here's Why You Should!!!
We know they are bad for us... but we do them anyway!
1. Going to Sleep with your Makeup On
Reason To Change:
Pores on our skin create sebum which is a natural lubricant that
protects, moisturizes and cleans our skin according to naturalorganicbody. Leaving makeup on overnight clogs the pores and traps the sebum on the skin. Sebum and dead cell build up leads to acne.
Also removing eye makeup is extremely important to avoid eye infections or irritation to contact wearers. Lavera Trend Organic Gentle Make-Up Remover is perfect for those with sensitive skin around the eyes because it uses Glycerin, Organic Alcohol to dissolve makeup and Organic Sea Buckthorn Fruit Extract to purify and refresh the skin.

2. Not Cleaning Makeup Brush Often
Reason To Change:
Makeup brushes get oil, sebum, and product buildup on them. This is especially true when you use them with liquid or cream products and it can cause bacteria to grow. When you use brushes with product buildup and bacteria on them it can lead to acne, irritation and even infection. According to naturalorganicbody, use a favorite brush cleanser or a baby shampoo once a week. So sensitive is Aubrey Organics Baby & Kids Shampoo which has a Coco Glucoside Mild Natural Soap Derived from Coconuts and Soy Protein to strengthen hair fiber.
3. Excessive or Abrasive Exfoliation
Reason To Change:
It's a necessary step in anyone's beauty process, but you have to exfoliate gently and not too often.
Excessive exfoliation can cause your skin to become hyper-sensitive and
vulnerable to the sun, as naturalorganicbody advises. Very abrasive exfoliating
products can tear your skin or break capillaries under the skin,
making it more vulnerable. Natural Fruit Acids found in Kiss My Face Potent & Pure Exfoliating Face Wash Gently Exfoliate the skin while Green Tea luminize it.4. Picking At Skin
Reason To Change:
Pimples are just clogged pores but picking at Pimples & Blackheads can make them worse. There is a huge chance of scarring, large pores, and skin discoloration. When you pop them it spreads the bacteria over and under the skin, usually creating a bigger irritation. The pressure of picking at your face can also stimulate your sebaceous glands which will cause your skin to make more sebum and create more potential acne. Naturalorganicbody recommends using a spot treatment of 100% Pure Purity Facial Cleanser + Cleanser overnight.The Essential Oils Kill Acne Causing Bacteria while Seaweeds & Herbs Protect Against Future Breakouts. For blackheads try a deep pore cleansing from DNA Phyto-Lipid Hydrating Scrub uses natural jojoba beads to exfoliate without harming healthy cells for an invigorating skin treatment.
5. Using Expired Makeup
Reason To Change:
When you use old or expired makeup you are potentially leaving yourself open to infections. Bacteria
grows in them after each use and after awhile it just isn't safe to use
anymore on your skin.This is especially true with liquid or cream products like mascara, foundation and lip products. According to naturalorganicbody most of these should be thrown away and used within 6 months. In fact, all the natural/organic products have the use after time stamp. Put different color
stickers on the bottom of your products so you know what month you
purchased or opened them.
Powdered products can last longer but it is recommended to toss them
after 2 years. Anytime you have an item that smells or looks odd, toss
it. Better to be safe.
