Introduction

Learn how stopping harsh skincare products helped heal my skin barrier and improved my natural glow during the 44 day skincare challenge.

On Day 6 of my 44 day skincare challenge, I made one of the most important decisions for my skin —
I stopped using harsh skincare products.

I realized that no matter how expensive a product is, if it damages your skin barrier, it will never give you healthy skin.

Why Harsh Products Were Damaging My Skin

Before this challenge, I was using:
• Strong face washes
• Alcohol-based toners
• Over-exfoliating scrubs
• Too many active ingredients

These products made my skin:
• Dry and sensitive
• Red and irritated
• More prone to breakouts
• Weak and dull

My skin healing routine could not work properly because my skin was constantly under stress.

I decided to go gentle and simple.

• No harsh face washes
• No alcohol-based products
• No over-exfoliation
• Only mild, skin-friendly products

I focused on calming my skin instead of forcing quick results.

• Gentle cleanser
• Hydrating toner
• Light moisturizer
• Sunscreen

• Micellar water
• Mild face wash
• Aloe vera gel
• Light moisturizer

This simple beginner skincare routine helped my skin feel calm and comfortable.

✔ Less redness
✔ Less irritation
✔ Softer texture
✔ Healthy glow starting to appear

I finally understood that healthy skin needs patience, not pressure.

I treat my skin gently, and it heals beautifully.
