Fingers on the face, a no no
May 2nd, 2008
If you are like me, then you often find your fist resting under your chin or the palm of your hand holding up your head by your cheek. This is particularly bad for those with acne considering all the oil and dirt on your hands is being dug into your pores each time you touch our skin.
All this face touching isn’t good for maintaining the perfected make-up look either. Why go to the trouble if we’re just going to wipe it away with fidgeting and touching?
To avoid any extra breakouts or make-up ruin, follow these tips to keep your hands off your face.
One: Use a scented hand lotion. With your hands close to your nose the scent will remind you to find something else for your fingers to do.
Two: Keep a stress ball close by. You might not need it for stress, but you can use it to keep your hands busy and off your face!
Three: Every time you catch yourself with your hands on your face do five push ups. This will at least get you thinking about your habit, and it will get your triceps looking great too.
Four: Gently twirl your hair. Careful to avoid breaking off any strands of hair.
Five: Sit on your hands. When the urge overcomes you, force those offenders to stay away.
