We all want healthy, glowing skin, but sometimes, our skincare habits might be working against us. Even with the best intentions, small mistakes can lead to dryness, irritation, or breakouts.

The good news? A few simple swaps can make all the difference. Let’s dive into the 5 most common skincare mistakes—and how to fix them for your best skin yet. ✨

1. Using Too Much (or Too Little) Product 💦

The Mistake: More isn’t always better! Overloading your skin with product can clog pores, while using too little can limit effectiveness.

How to Fix It: ✔ Cleanser: A dime-sized amount is enough. ✔ Serums & Oils: A few drops go a long way—warm them in your hands before applying. ✔ Moisturizer: A pea-sized amount for your face, more for your body. ✔ CBD Body Oils: Apply to damp skin to seal in moisture without using excess product.

2. Skipping Hydration (Even If You Have Oily Skin) 💧

The Mistake: Thinking that oily skin doesn’t need hydration is one of the biggest skincare myths. When skin lacks moisture, it actually produces more oil to compensate.

How to Fix It: ✔ Use lightweight, non-comedogenic oils like jojoba & full-spectrum CBD to balance hydration. ✔ Apply body oil after showering to lock in moisture. ✔ Drink enough water—hydration starts from within!

3. Ignoring Your Neck & Hands 🤲

The Mistake: We focus so much on our face, but our neck and hands show signs of aging just as quickly.

How to Fix It: ✔ Extend your skincare routine to your neck & hands daily. ✔ Use body oils with antioxidants to protect & hydrate. ✔ Apply SPF to these areas—sun exposure speeds up aging.

4. Over-Exfoliating 🛑

The Mistake: Exfoliation is great for removing dead skin cells, but too much can strip your skin barrier, leading to dryness & sensitivity.

How to Fix It: ✔ Limit exfoliation to 2-3 times per week. ✔ Use gentle, hydrating ingredients (avoid harsh scrubs that cause micro-tears!). ✔ Follow up with a nourishing body oil to restore moisture.

5. Not Listening to Your Skin 🔍

The Mistake: Sticking to the same products, even when your skin feels irritated, dry, or congested.

How to Fix It: ✔ Adjust your routine based on your skin’s needs—seasonal changes, stress, and diet all impact your skin. ✔ Introduce new products slowly to see how your skin reacts. ✔ Pay attention to ingredient lists and opt for plant-based, natural solutions.

Fixing These Mistakes = Healthier, Happier Skin 🌿

Skincare isn’t about perfection—it’s about consistency, balance, and using products that work with your skin, not against it.
