You haven't figured out yet how to blow-dry your hair like a pro, but if there's one thing you have mastered by now is Washing your Face, right..???
Well don't be so sure: Most people are not as skin-savvy as they think. Below, the top five face washing problems and, of course how to fix them.

MISTAKE 1:
Not using water:
Many people moisten their hands, put cleanser on their fingers, and apply it to dry skin. But cleansers are designed to work with water. Water is what cleans the skin, and the cleanser and soap enhance its effects. Be sure your face is dripping wet before you start to wash.

MISTAKE 2;
Scrubbing too aggressively:
Super-abrasive cleansing sponges or puffs can irritate your skin as well as cause broken blood vessels. The same holds true for mechanical facial scrubs made from nutshells,  ls from fruits like apricots, or other irregularly shaped particles; these should be used twice a week at most (or not at all if you have dry skin or rosacea, or if you are you are using topical prescription medicines such as Retino-A, which can make skin hyper sensitive)
The best way to buff is to put a gentle chemical exfoliate like glycolic or salicylic acid on a cotton pad or your fingers , and massage it into your skin.

MISTAKE 3:
Rinsing too fast:
The purpose of a cleanser is to bind the skin's oil and debris so that it can be removed when you rinse. If you don't rinse well, you may leave irritants on the skin. Splash your face 8-10 time to for a cleansed face.

MISTAKE 4:
Treating your face the way you treat your body:
Deodorants, body bar and liquid hand soap contains detergents and chemicals that strip oils, and are not meant for delicate facial skin. Look for gentle soap-free cleansers or anything made just for the face.

MISTAKE 5:
Spending too much time washing at the sink:
Cleansing more than twice a day or spending more than 2 minutes at a time is a definite no-no. Too frequent washing can dry or irritate your skin, or stimulate oil production, which can result in clogged pores and skin breakouts. Even if you hit the gym at mid-day, just rinse your skin with water,and save your cleanser for morning and night.
