Why you shouldn't wash your face often

Are you that cleanliness freak who can't stand the sight of sweat or a lil smudge on your face and tadaa! you are off to the ladies to get it all washed off. Hello, washing the face is cool, yeah it's also hygienic but here are some reasons why you shouldn't wash your face every chance you get.


The skin can dry out easily 

Frequent cleansing of the face can get rid of moisture on the skin, making it dry out and dehydrated. Even the use of plain water in washing the face countless times can also dry out the skin.


The skin can easily get exposed to bacteria and infections 

Washing the face too often, or scrubbing it too hard, strips it of all moisture and makes it vulnerable to irritations and infections.


Most face washes contain harmful chemicals 

Yeah, those fragrant face washes we love so much. Most of them contain a whole lot of possibly dangerous and harmful chemicals that can affect our hormone system when used on the skin for long periods . Hard to believe huh?


It can induce acne breakouts

If you are the type of person constantly battling with pesky zits popping on your face. It's not a good idea to wash your face often cos that can make the acne spread out and worsen.
