For example, if you tend to go to bed without removing your makeup, then you’re bound to have skin issues. - Before buying any new product, carefully examine the ingredients. Some of the most basic components can be dangerous for your particular skin type. - A moisturizer can’t go deep under your skin into the dermis in order to repair the collagen. However, it will hydrate the top layers. - In fact, the ingredients your skin once loved will always be just as powerful. If they stopped working their magic for you, the reason must be in your skin itself. - There’s no scientific evidence to back up the claim that water slows down skin aging. When the upper epidermis cells die, they don’t absorb any more moisture from the inside. - Your face is the only part of your body that has muscles directly attached to the skin. Constantly stretching and exercising them will not help smooth out existing wrinkles. - The sun does dry your skin out! But your skin’s natural reaction to such torture is to start pumping out even more pore-clogging oil. - Your skin doesn’t react to the sun by becoming darker simply because it’s getting healthier. In fact, this is your skin’s way of trying to protect itself from the damaging rays that you’re letting invade it! - Any moles that look suspiciously like skin cancer should be removed. This procedure is completely safe when done by a medical professional. - Directly exposing your skin to really low temperatures can actually harm it. Ice can disturb the blood flow, causing swelling and the appearance of spider veins. - Hair grows at the same rate, about a quarter of an inch each month, regardless of how often you cut it and whether you cut it at all. - Brushing your teeth immediately after eating is not only useless but also harmful. Recent studies by the American Dental Association have confirmed this. - If the nail plate could “breath,” then nail polish simply wouldn’t stick to it due to high humidity.
