Bad Beauty Habits: Taylor Resolves to Wash Her Face

I don't have acne or breakout much, so I usually just wash my face in the shower with plain water and rush out the door (after drying off and getting dressed, of course). Even though I know that it's a bad beauty habit, laziness and a hectic schedule (can you say 8 a.m. classes?) make it a hard one to kick. I'm a Chemistry/Math major, so I know that dirty skin + no cleanser=breakouts. Not cute. Over my winter break, my (nonexistent) skin regimen totally backfired on me. With the school year starting back up, I'm going to break my bad beauty habit. I resolve to wash my face…with actual cleanser… at least once a day. I already have a cleanser that I have been using since my mom first spotted a pimple on my forehead—Doctor's Dermatologic Formula Blemish Foaming Cleanser. The cosmetic formulation of DDF Blemish Foaming Cleanser, $38: What it is: A gentle cleanser that reduces oil without over-drying. What it is formulated to do: This skincare essential, tailored to the needs of normal-to-oily skin types, helps fade post-inflammatory red spots while minimizing future blemishes. A blend of salicylic acid, azelaic acid, red clover, and golden seal extract delivers clear, healthy results. Now it's your turn to "come clean!" What bad beauty habit do YOU resolve to break in 2012?

Bad Beauty Habits: Chelsea Will Stop Sleeping in Her Makeup

I need to stop sleeping with make up on now! (Editor's note–story was written before the first of the year) January 1, 2012 cannot wait. My plan to kick this awful habit is to make it easier to take my make up off at night. Sometimes, as conceited as this is going to sound, I really love the way my eye makeup looks and I just don’t want to take it off. Other times, I am just too tired or simply have forgotten and am too lazy to get out of bed and wash my face. To combat this lazy habit I plan to do the following: 1) Wear less makeup in 2012 2) Keep makeup remover/facial cleansing clothes on my nightstand. I am going to use Organic Wear Facial Makeup Remover Towelettes. About Physician's Formula Organic Facial Makeup Remover Towelettes: Eco-Aroma Therapy™ 100% of the Total Ingredients are from Natural Origin Naturally Gentle & Pure 100% Naturally soft towelettes gently remove traces of makeup and impurities leavening skin soft and supple. Ultra gentle formula conditions and helps soften skin. Infused with Organic Aloe Vera Extract to condition skin.

Organic Orange Water: Helps nourish and restore delicate skin's moisture balance. Organic Lavender Essential Oils: Sweet, natural scent for a calming effect. I am hoping that this plan of action will curb my bad habit. I’m sure my skin and pillow cases will thank me for it! Try these wipes, you will like 'em! Perfect for lazy girls!
