Another biggest face-washing mistake that we commit is to use the wrong temperature of water. It is a myth that hot water opens the pores and cold water closes them. Pores do not have muscles to open or close. Instead of using hot water on your delicate facial skin, always use lukewarm or cold water to wash your face. This will save you from stripping your skin of natural protective oils and over production of sebum or over-drying.
Exfoliation is a healthy process that removes the accumulated dead skin cells. However, it should be done in moderation. Grainy exfoliators sometimes scratch the delicate skin on the face, which leads to pulling and tugging of the skin. Keep it to max twice a week to exfoliate your facial skin with mild exfoliating agents such as fruit acids or sugar scrubs. Use your fingers instead of the whole palm to make the action gentler.
Always remember to rinse out the product completely, be it your cleanser, scrub or any product that you are using. Not washing properly will lead to residue build-up, which in turn will clog the pores and dry out the skin. Show some love to the neglected jawline, nose and hairline.
Many cleansers contain irritating ingredients such as colorants, fragrances, alcohol and synthetic preservatives such as parabens. Do a favour to your skin and choose a cleanser devoid of all these. Always read labels carefully and select a gentle formulation to avoid any allergic reaction and irritation.
One common mistake almost everyone does after face washing is to rub your skin hard with the towel, in the hope that all the dirt and grease will come off. Rubbing can feel good but it actually pulls and tugs your skin. Keep a clean soft face towel aside for yourself and at dry your face the next time.
This style is ideal for you if you have an oval or round face. For the style to last for a long time you should ensure that you keep the moisture content up. You should also cover the hair at night using silk or satin bonnet.
You should braid up your hair on one side and then top it up with a curly side ponytail. Just like other styles you should start by sectioning your hair off and braid it up. For ideal results you should braid it in a slight curved pattern. When you are done you should pull all of the hair into a ponytail and roll it with perm rods or flexi-rods.
Bob cuts never go out of style especially for black natural hairstyles. A bob cut is usually cut straight around your head and can be jaw-length or chin-length. Any kind of bob cut, whether it's the A-line, Asian, shaggy, or buzz cut bob, would still flatter black short hairstyles. Black women who love this cut gamely pairs it with frills or bangs, making the look a lot chic and classy.
