Let’s face it we’ve all made skincare mistakes. From skipping sunscreen to over-exfoliating in the hope of instant glow, sometimes our good intentions can do more harm than good. At Litso Skincare, we believe in learning from those moments and gently guiding your skin back to balance with clean, effective products that support long-term health not quick fixes.
Here are 5 common skincare mistakes you might be making and how Litso can help you correct them:
1. Using Too Many Actives at Once
Mixing too many “power” ingredients like retinol, vitamin C, AHA/BHA, and niacinamide without knowing how they interact can cause irritation, redness, or even breakouts. Your skin doesn’t need everything it needs the right things.
Litso Fix:
Our Beleni Skin Lightening Serum contains a thoughtfully balanced formula of niacinamide, kojic acid, alpha arbutin, and licorice all gentle yet effective. It’s designed to work synergistically, so you don’t need to mix multiple serums to see results.
2. Skipping Sunscreen (Especially with Brightening Products)
Using brightening or exfoliating products without sun protection can worsen pigmentation or damage your skin barrier.
Litso Reminder:
Always pair serums like Beleni or Hiret with a broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day. These products reveal brighter, fresher skin but that skin needs to be protected from UV rays to maintain your progress.
3. Being Inconsistent
Even the best product won’t work if you only use it once a week. Skincare is all about consistency, not instant miracles.
Litso Encouragement:
Our serums are designed for daily use and absorb easily into the skin making it easier to stick with your routine. You don’t need 10 products. You need a few great ones you’ll actually use.
4. Over-Exfoliating or Stripping the Skin
Aggressively trying to “scrub away” dark spots or blemishes can cause micro-tears and lead to more inflammation and hyperpigmentation.
Litso Solution:
Our formulas focus on gentle brightening and barrier support not harsh peels or scrubs. Licorice extract, niacinamide, and mulberry help calm and restore your skin while fading spots over time.
5. Ignoring Signs of Skin Fatigue
If your skin is constantly irritated, dry, or breaking out that’s your skin asking for a break. Sometimes, less is more.
Litso Advice:
Simplify your routine. Choose one serum (Beleni for brightening, Hiret for aging concerns) and give it 4–6 weeks to show results. Don’t overload. Let your skin breathe and heal.
Final Thought: Your Skin Isn’t Failing It’s Communicating.
Skincare isn’t about getting it perfect every time. It’s about paying attention, learning, and making better choices along the way. At Litso Skincare, we’re here to make that process easier with science-backed products that work with your skin, not against it.
