3 Skincare Steps You Don't Need to Do Every Day

Skincare doesn't necessarily require daily, complex routines. In fact, some habits we consider essential may be excessive and harmful to the skin barrier. Three things you don't need to do every day are daily exfoliation, which can cause irritation, double cleansing (unless you're wearing makeup or heavy sunscreen) which can lead to dryness, and using multiple active ingredients at once (like retinol, vitamin C, and acids), which increases the risk of irritation without necessarily providing better results. Simplicity and moderation are often key to healthy skin.
