From fighting pimples decades past puberty to scoffing at the first signs of wrinkles, it’s hard to win the good-skin game. But before cursing your genes, ask yourself whether your skincare routine and lifestyle habits are up to par. And by that we don’t mean clocking hours in front of the mirror or stealing your girlfriend’s fancy facial loot. There’s no need for five-step peels or expensive serums, says Howard Sobel, MD, a New York City-based dermatologist. Layering on too many products can actually irritate skin. The key is washing and moisturizing every day and following a few other maintenance basics, he says. Ready to get schooled in skincare? Check out Sobel’s do’s and don’ts for a fresher looking face.

10 Skincare Do’s and Don’ts
DO Lather Up

A splash of cold water does more than wake you up. A good cleanse helps slough away dead skin cells that stick together and make your face look dull. Use a wash with glycolic acid, like Neutrogena Healthy Skin Anti-Wrinkle Anti-Blemish Cleanser ($6, neutrogena.com), both in the morning and before bed, advises Sobel. For a deeper clean that also stimulates the growth of new skin cells, wash with an exfoliating scrub, like Tree Hut Almond & Honey Shea Sugar Body Scrub ($20, amazon.com), once or twice a week. Just don’t overdo it—cut back if skin starts to get red or irritated.
