Excess cosmetics - how it affects your skin and why less is more

Excess cosmetics - how it affects your skin and why less is more

Have you ever felt that your bathroom shelf resembles a store shelf full of products? Perhaps you even thought that more cosmetics were the key to healthy, well-groomed skin. After all, there are tons of new cosmetics everywhere! Meanwhile, dermatologists warn that too many products can cause more problems than good. Skin overwhelmed by too many ingredients often reacts with allergies, irritations, and even acne. So is there a way to care for your skin that will really support it? Check out why minimalist skin care may be the answer you are looking for.

How does too much cosmetics affect the skin?

You may notice that the more cosmetics you use, the more your skin seems tired or oversensitive. This may be due to an excess of chemicals that, although they are supposed to be beneficial, overlap and burden the skin. Here are the problems that too many cosmetics can cause:

• Contact allergies – caused by fragrances, preservatives and other additives that may cause allergic reactions.
• Irritation and redness – too many layers and substances strain the skin’s natural barrier, making it more susceptible to external factors.
• Cosmetic acne – too many products can clog pores, especially when using thick formulas, leading to breakouts.
• Skin microbiome disorders – washing and applying products too often destroys the natural bacterial flora that protects the skin from infections.

So, if you feel like your skin is still irritated or congested, maybe it just needs... less.

Less is more: simplicity in care

The skin does not need many cosmetics, but a few well-chosen products that will work with its needs. That is why more and more specialists recommend care based on simplicity - choosing products that contain short, thoughtful compositions and fulfill the most important functions. Cosmetic minimalism is the way to regain the balance of the skin, which can naturally defend itself and regenerate itself.
