Even though there are tons of advantages of the internet, but at the same time it can be quite disadvantageous too. From beauty tips to hairstyling techniques, there is nothing you won’t find. However, there are a few trends that have actually become a reality and are technically myths.

Shocked? Well, I was too!!! Read on to find out what skincare myths you believed as well.

Tanning booths are completely safe:

While the majority of us believe that tanning booths are more reliable than the direct sunlight tanning, we are not aware of the fact that the tanning booths are harmful to our skin too. Tanning booth companies often claim that they filter the harmful sunburn UVB, but that’s not true. Even if they penetrate the UV rays, there are high risks that cancer develops.

Essential Oils are good for your skin:

While there are several benefits of the essential oils, they are supposed to be not-so-healthy and useful for your skin. Most of the essential oils are anti-oxidant rich, which can cause skin irritation and allergies at times as well.

You’ll age faster if you use makeup:

Using make-up will not make you mature faster. That’s a myth that has been revolving around for quite some time now. Most of the people believe that makeup makes you grow more quickly when it doesn’t. Numerous double-duty makeup products tend to nourish your skin and make it healthy. Hard to believe.

Expensive makeup and skincare products are better:

This is not true!!! It doesn’t necessarily mean that expensive makeup products are always the best. This depends on the ingredients and chemicals added to the products.

These are a few skincare myths which people usually tend to believe but that are not true, so next time you want to learn more about beauty, start by making sure where you get your information from.
