It’s spooky season — and while ghosts, goblins, and glittery costumes are all in good fun, some skincare habits are downright terrifying. 👻
At POUT, we’re here to help you sort the skincare tricks from the real treats, so your glow lasts long after Halloween night.
🚫 TRICKS (The scary stuff!)
Skipping SPF because it’s cold outside
Just because the sun isn’t blazing doesn’t mean UV rays disappear! Daily SPF protects your skin from damage, aging, and hyperpigmentation — no matter the weather.
Using expired productsÂ
If your skincare has been hanging around since last Halloween, it’s time to toss it. Expired formulas can lose their effectiveness or even cause irritation.
Sleeping in your makeupÂ
This one’s a classic horror story. Makeup + oil + pollution = clogged pores, breakouts, and dull skin. Always double cleanse before bed (no excuses!).
At-home dermaplaning (without training)
It can seem like a fun DIY experiment, but using a blade on your face without proper technique can lead to cuts or irritation. It can even spread acne causing bacteria, resulting in more breakouts! Leave this one to the professionals.
💕 TREATS (The good stuff!)
Double cleansing every night
Start with an oil cleanser to remove makeup, then follow with a gentle cleanser to purify your pores.
Ice rolling your face
A quick roll of icy bliss helps reduce puffiness, calm inflammation, and give your skin a healthy glow!
Monthly treatments with your esthetician
Whether it’s a custom facial, chemical peel, or LED therapy, monthly visits to your esty keep your skin balanced and glowing year-round.
Clean makeup brushes
Bacteria buildup on brushes is the ultimate trick. Washing them weekly keeps your skin clear and your makeup flawless.
Happy Halloween from the POUT girls 💋
