products developed especially for oily, dry, or combination skin. It
is still important to put on moisturizer if you have oily skin, but be
sure to look for one that is oil-free.
DO: Look for a moisturizer or foundation that has SPF! It is
important to keep something with SPF on whenever you go
outside to protect your skin from the damaging effects of the sun
now and in the future (you’ll be so glad you did).
DON’T: Pick! You can pick your friends, but don’t pick your
stubborn pimples! Although you might want to rid yourself of
whiteheads and blackheads, resist the urge. This could lead to long-
term damaging effects on your skin.
DON’T: Leave makeup on overnight. As tempting as it is to crash
after a long day, be sure to give your pores a rest from makeup.
Makeup-removing wipes are a quick way to at least get a majority
of products off your face.
DO: Be sure to wipe down your cell phone. Bacteria can live on
the surface and cause major breakouts on your cheeks and chin if
not properly sanitized.
Prevention Years
As a young adult, it’s important to continue good habits of caring
for your skin. This is the prime age to prevent unwanted wrinkles that
you may start to face in the next five to 10 years. Now is the time to
take charge by:
• Wearing eye cream. We have seen the commercials about
preventing wrinkles. But when do you have to start? NOW! The
skin around your eyes is very thin and just a short amount of
sunlight could cause lasting wrinkles.
• Applying SPF products to face, neck, and hands. Skipping the
protection of an SPF could throw off your entire routine. Find a
good moisturizer that combines protection with moisture and
apply it to your face, neck, and hands. The neck and hands are
often overlooked, but prime spots for the sun to hit and cause
wrinkles.
• Quitting bad habits. Now is a better time than ever to kick the
bad habits you formed in high school and college. The number of
benefits to canceling your package at the tanning salon and quitting
smoking would take up this entire article, but for skin’s sake, give
them up!
