You maintain a balanced diet, exercise periodically and also protect your body through the consumption of vitamins and antioxidants, and still, do you feel that the beauty of your skin and body fades in an accelerated way? The cause could be some bad habits that you make.

Bad habits are part of the life of every human being and are difficult to change because, for the expert Nora Volkow, director of the National Institute against Drug Use, The power of "immediate reward" must be fought. However, in the case of appearance the long-term result of them can be terrible.

Do you sabotage your beauty?

According to the Mexican Dermatology Foundation (FMD), we provide you with a list of five bad habits that you should eliminate from your daily routine. Know them!

1. Paint your hair. This action makes it dry and damaged, so it is best to avoid doing it. But if you really need it, then use hair treatments that help you repair and nourish it, and second, allow you to keep the color longer; so you will not have to paint it so often.

2. Abusing the solarium. Do you want to show off a spectacular tan? solariums are not the best option. Ultraviolet rays penetrate the skin and weaken its protection, which causes premature aging. And that's not all ... the abuse of the solarium can cause skin cancer in the long term.

3. Do not take off your makeup before going to sleep. Falling asleep with makeup is harmful to the health of your skin, because your pores need to breathe but if you have a base, it will not allow them to do so and your face will lose its shine. No matter how tired you are, it is important that you remove makeup.

4. Pinch your skin. Never pinch your skin, this according to the dermatologist Lisa Kellett, since doing so can cause scars and infections and the skin may not heal properly. It is important to note that acne scars are caused by pinching and not by acne.

5. Whiten teeth . When you whiten your teeth professionally, the dentist uses hydrogen peroxide. But the constant exposure of this element in the enamel of the teeth makes them very sensitive and this can cause them to fracture. Natural whitening is the best option.

For Kellett there are two basic actions to improve the appearance: wash and moisturize the skin twice a day. With this you will remove polluting agents and allow a greater elasticity in this area of ​​your body. Beware!
