DON’T GO TO BED WITH MAKEUP ON.
This can lead to breakouts and can result in premature skin aging.
DON’T PICK AT YOUR ACNE.
It prolongs healing and leads to scarring.
DON’T RELY ON THE SPF IN YOUR MAKEUP.
You would have to apply 7x the amount of liquid foundation to equal the appropriate amount of sunscreen for the face.
DON’T EXPECT ACNE TREATMENT TO BE IMMEDIATE.
It can take 8-12 weeks to fully evaluate the efficacy of treatment.
DON’T ALLOW YOUR HAIR TO AIR DRY IF YOU STRUGGLE WITH DANDRUFF.
Wet hair provides a thriving environment for yeast, which is the underlying cause of dandruff.
DON’T FREEZE YOUR OWN WARTS.
This can lead to scarring and, in many cases, cause the wart to spread.
DON’T BE IMPATIENT WITH YOUR SKIN CARE.
It can take a couple months of consistent use to see visible results. Real results will not happen overnight.
DON’T IGNORE A BLEEDING SKIN LESION.
This can be a sign of skin cancer.
DON’T FORGET TO REAPPLY SUNSCREEN EVERY 90 MINUTES.
Using sunscreen with a higher SPF or one that is waterproof does not mean you don’t have to reapply as often.
DON’T PUSH BACK YOUR CUTICLES.
Detaching the cuticle from the nail creates an entry point for water and germs that can lead to infection.
DON’T BELIEVE THAT A BASE TAN IS SAFE.
There is no such thing as a safe tan. Visible signs of any kind of tan are an indicator of skin damage.
DON’T IGNORE A CHANGING MOLE.
This can be a sign of skin cancer.
