Read along as we discover the secrets of skincare while also debunking the common myths associated with it.

 

"Oily skin doesn't need moisturizer."

Among the apex misconceptions that people hold when it comes to skincare is that those with oily skin do not require the application of moisturizer. Skin care face washes are known to remove excess oil from the face; devoid of present moisture, it becomes essential to apply cream and moisturize your skin to maintain balance.

 

"Acne is only caused by poor hygiene."

Acnes are among the scariest nightmares, irrespective of the age bracket you belong to. However, a common misconception associated with acne is related to its occurrence. While poor hygiene is one of the factors responsible for acne, the major culprit stands to be the imbalance caused by your hormones, combined with an unhealthy diet and lifestyle.

 

"Natural ingredients are always safe and effective."

Hold your herbaceous horses, pal. While natural and organic ingredients are the new buzzwords of the town, not all are suited for every skin type. Skincare bundles floating in the market these days claim to be all-natural and use the organic tag naturally, but what is required is to look for accreditation certificates that establish the authenticity of the same.

 

"Sunscreen is only necessary on sunny days."

Is buying insurance on the day of your demise possible? Exactly. Having insurance against sun rays is a prerequisite, whether the heat you face is in the summer or the winter. Insolation is on the rise, and with it comes the incidence of UV rays. Wear your sunscreen regularly to ensure that you protect your skin from pigmentation and tanning.

 

While the quest to ensure healthy skin seems sorted, it is more of a marathon than a sprint. While investing in products that are worth both time and money is one part of the game, using products without misconceptions is equally essential. Keep the above points in mind when you go shopping for skincare next time and get that flawless skin for yourself.
