Caring for your skin is essential, but over-washing can do more harm than good. Ideally, wash your face twice daily—once in the morning to refresh and once at night to remove dirt and makeup. Over-washing strips natural oils, causing dryness, irritation, and sensitivity. This disrupts your skin’s barrier, leading to overproduction of oil and potential breakouts. Use a gentle cleanser and avoid harsh soaps to maintain balance. Always follow up with a moisturizer to restore hydration. A consistent, simple routine is key to healthy, youthful skin.
