You know that feeling after a long day all you want to do is get in the shower, run the hot water, and stay in there for hours? Yea? Well newsflash: your skin is screaming at you sis.
Washing your face in hot water can actually do more harm to your skin than good. Hot water apparently “damages skin’s protective barrier and causes engorgement of tiny blood vessels, which may lead to permanently dilated skin blood vessels over time and result in skin ruddiness and uneven tone” according to Stylecaster.com.
