Washing your face with bar soap<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/22191989129,1002554\/MGL\/mgl_ado_atunwa_300x250 --><\/p>\n<p>Bar soap isn\u2019t good for your face. It dehydrates your face and leaves it feeling tight and dry. It is much better to use a liquid facial cleanser that hydrates your face and restores the PH.<\/p>\n<p id=\"nav-ring-5\"><strong>2. Over exfoliating<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Exfoliate only two or three times a week. Exfoliating helps to remove dead skin cells in your face. You need new skin cells to be renewed before you exfoliate again.<\/p>\n<p id=\"nav-ring-7\"><strong>3. Lack of moisturiser<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There is no time when it is okay not to moisturise your skin, even after you wash it for the night or when you have acne, you have to keep your skin moisturised.<\/p>\n<p id=\"nav-ring-9\"><strong>4. Not using sunscreen<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sunscreen should be an integral part of your skin routine or an important ingredient in your moisturiser, this is because the rays of the sun can harm your skin and cause wrinkles and fine lines.<\/p>\n<p id=\"nav-ring-11\"><strong>5. Not washing your face<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You should wash your face twice a day and whenever you exercise or sweat profusely. Not washing your face regularly will cause dirt and bacteria to build up.<\/p>\n<p>            <!--  [embed]https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=videoseries[\/embed]<!--\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>--><\/p>\n<div class=\"youtube-embed\" data-video_id=\"gBuZgRwtpy8\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"CETAG Strike: NLC directs Colleges of Education teachers to go back to the classroom (13-1-22)\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gBuZgRwtpy8?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When it comes to taking care of your skin, we make some minor errors.
