Boo! Your skin is in for a treat this spooky season—but first, let’s get rid of those ghastly skincare habits that are doing more harm than good. Don’t be scared—these easy swaps will have your skin glowing like magic!
1. Hands Off Your Pimples!We know it’s so tempting to pop that pimple but trust us—this spooky habit is more trick than treat. Popping pimples can spread bacteria, leading to even more acne, infections, or (eek!) scarring. Instead, try Dermadot Invisible Pimple Patches. They blend seamlessly with all skin tones, effectively drain and shrink whiteheads, and protect blemishes from external irritants. Dermadot helps bring those almost-ready pimples to the surface and speeds up healing time. Pop a patch on, and let it work its magic—no cauldron required!
2. Beware of Hot Water!Washing your face with hot water feels cozy, but it’s a real skin fright! Hot water strips your skin of its natural oils, leaving you feeling tight, dry, and not so fab. Swap to lukewarm or cool water for a gentle cleanse that won’t spook your skin. Your skin will thank you for the cool, calm refresh!
3. Say Goodbye to Fingers in JarsDipping your fingers into jarred products—whether it’s foundation or eye cream—can transfer bacteria and oil into your favorite products. Talk about a scary situation! Instead, use a spatula, scoop, or cotton swab to keep those products squeaky clean. Your skin will stay safe from creepy contamination.
4. Stop Haunting Your Routine!
Changing your skincare routine too often can disrupt your skin’s natural balance,
leading to breakouts, irritation, and more. Spooky, right? Start slow! Introduce one new product at a time and give it 2-3 weeks before adding another. Remember: less is more, and more is not always better!
5. Ditch the Scary Old Towels
Using old, worn towels to wash your face is a skincare nightmare! Towels can harbor bacteria, especially ones hiding in your gym bag (yikes!). Instead, reach for Clean Towels XL —the clean, compostable towels that keep your skin fresh and bacteria-free after every wash. Traditional towels may gather ghoulish germs over time, but Clean Towels are your skin’s new BFF for a glowing routine—no tricks, just treats. There you go! Say goodbye to spooky skincare habits and hello to a fright-free, fab glow. Your skin will feel boo-tiful in no time!
