5 Beauty Myths

If you have ever wondered if some Beauty Myths we are about to tell you

 There are so many Beauty Myths out there, but  we are going to set the record straight  5 of them.

Myth 1: That there are some  skin-care products that work like Botox or dermal fillers.

Fact: No there is no  skin-care product that can work like Botox or dermal fillers this  because the ingredients  that are needed cannot reach their targeted areas as the areas are too small which is why the are injected.Regardless of the ingredients or the claims for skin-care products, it just isn’t possible. Neither Botox or derma fillers would work if just simply rubbed on to the skin. So don’t be fooled by the product manufactures .

Myth 2: Age spots are are simply a fact of getting older.

Fact: Firstly  the term “age spot” is really a misnomer. Brown, freckle-like skin discolouration is  not necessarily  a result of age;  but more likely result of years of unprotected sun exposure.

Sun spots can appear at any age, from the freckles sprinkled across a child’s nose to smooth,  to flat brown discolourations  that you may see as early as your mid-20s.

Myth 3: You’ll eventually outgrow acne.

Fact: If only that were true, lots of people’s still have acne skin-care problems much later  in life In fact, women in their 20s, 30s, 40s, and even 50s can have acne just like teenagers, and the treatment principles remain the same.

Not everyone who has acne as a teenager  just as not every one  who has it will grow out of it, but even if you had clear skin as a teenager, there’s no guarantee that you won’t get acne later in life, perhaps during menopause. You can blame this often-maddening inconsistency on hormones! What is true is that men can outgrow acne, because after puberty men’s hormone levels level out, while women’s hormone levels fluctuate throughout their lifetime, which is why many women experience breakouts around their menstrual cycle.

Myth4 :  You should always look for collagen and elastin in anti-wrinkle products.

Fact:  Although collagen and elastin in skin-care products can serve as good water-binding agents, but they cannot fuse with your skin’s natural supply collagen or elastin.

This is because  the collagen molecule is too large to penetrate into the skin. But even when it is made small enough to be absorbed it cannot bind with the collagen existing in skin, and to date there is no  scientific evidence  to say otherwise. What does exist are myriad studies showing that collagen is a very good moisturizing ingredient, which is great for skin, but not unique or the only formulary option.

Myth 5: Expensive cosmetics are better than inexpensive

Fact:  The truth is that there are good and bad products in all price categories. It’s all about the formulation, not the price. of example, an irritant-free toner by Neutrogena can be just as good as, or maybe even better than, an irritant-free toner by Chanel (depending on the formulation) it is infinitely better than a toner that contains alcohol, peppermint, menthol, or any other irritants, no matter how natural-sounding the ingredients are and regardless of the price or claim.

We’ve  all seen expensive products that are little more than water and wax, and inexpensive products that are beautifully formulated. Spending less doesn’t hurt your skin, and spending more doesn’t help it. Again, it’s all about the formulation, not the price.

We hope this has shed light on some of the many  Beauty Myths and we will cover more of them at a later da
