8 Skincare Mistakes That Make You Look Older

Skipping Sunscreen

Not wearing sunscreen daily causes sun damage, leading to premature aging, wrinkles, and dark spots.

Not Moisturizing

Skipping moisturizer leads to dry, flaky skin and accentuates fine lines and wrinkles.

Using Harsh Cleansers

Harsh cleansers strip the skin of essential oils, causing dryness and irritation, making skin look older.

Neglecting the Neck and Hands

Ignoring skincare for the neck and hands results in visible signs of aging like wrinkles and age spots in these areas.

Sleeping with Makeup On

Leaving makeup on overnight clogs pores, causes breakouts, and prevents skin from repairing itself.

Not Drinking Enough Water

Dehydration makes skin look dull, dry, and accentuates wrinkles, giving an aged appearance.

Smoking

Smoking accelerates aging, causing wrinkles, dull skin, and loss of elasticity due to reduced blood flow and collagen breakdown.

Excessive Alcohol Consumption

Alcohol dehydrates the skin, leading to dryness, redness, and a more aged appearance.
