Your skin microbiome is vital for maintaining healthy, balanced skin. However, certain habits can disrupt this delicate ecosystem, leading to skin issues. Here are five common mistakes to avoid:
- Over-Cleansing: Washing your face too frequently or using harsh cleansers can strip away beneficial bacteria, leaving your skin vulnerable.
- Using Harsh Skincare Products: Products with strong chemicals, alcohol, or synthetic fragrances can damage the microbiome, causing irritation and imbalance.
- Skipping Moisturizer: Hydration is key to a healthy microbiome. Skipping moisturizer can lead to dryness and compromise your skin's natural defenses.
- Excessive Use of Hand Sanitizers: While effective against germs, overusing hand sanitizers can deplete your skin’s microbiome, making it more susceptible to damage.
- Not Protecting Your Skin: Environmental factors like pollution and UV rays can harm your microbiome. Using protective skincare products like Avlo can help maintain its balance.
