7 Bad Beauty Habits to Cut Out of Your Daily Routine


Cut it out if you are doing any of the 5, bad, maybe even worse, beauty habits a girl can have. Really, break these habits if you do any of them...they are bad, gross, disgusting, and I think you get the idea, they are no good for you!


So here it goes... don't do these anymore...ya hear?

1. Not removing makeup
"I'm tired and it's late...I'll just wash it off first thing in the morning!". This has been said and thought way too often on a night back from being out on the town. Taking the time to take off your makeup before you go to sleep at night is so, so important.

2. Not wearing sunscreen
It really doesn't matter if you're in the sun or if it's winter time, those UVA, UVB's and whatever UV rays are hittin' ya! Apply a sunscreen or moisturizer with SPF everyday to protect it from the sun. Your face (and health) will thank you later.

3. Not drinking enough water
This is a huge huge issue I have myself. Let's take a bottle of water with us daily from now on and force ourselves to drink and refill, drink and refill.


4. Using moisturizer on the eyes
Use eye cream instead...that's why they make it!

5. Wearing foundation that does not match your skin tone
Don't use the back of your hand as a way to match your foundation to your skin tone...your skin on your face and the back of your hand are completely different. Try heading to a department store where a makeup artist or consultant can help you determine the right shade for you. Trust me, you don't want to be walking around with the wrong shade on!

6. Peeling Nail Polish off your Nails
A bad habit I confess, but not only are you peeling off the nail polish but you're also peeling off your nails! Don't do this, please!

7. Pickin' Your Face
Call me sick, but this song came to mind when thinking of this bad beauty habit, 'pickin' muscles from a shell'. I couldn't help but think pickin' pimples from your face....the worst habit of them all possibly, this one will get you red scars that may last you a long time, even years, to rid! Don't pick those pimples, treat them! Use a bit of product that contains salicylic acid and even moisturize that sucker.
