By now you know that all the information you collect on the internet must be carefully analyzed. A premise that applies especially to beauty issues - advice, tips, tutorials.
For unknown reasons, the increase in channels or accounts dedicated to makeup and skin care seems to have no limit. So although we love as much as anyone a quick and effective solution or the odd tip to save a few bucks, the following tips should never be tried!
In order to solve once and for all the tips that you should
definitely not risk, we have compiled the opinions of the experts so that the
next time you come across something similar, think twice.
Lemon in exchange for deodorant
Maybe you think rubbing a lemon on your armpits sounds nice
and planet-friendly, so why not, right? According to experts, this situation
can leave you with a bitter experience - and not because of the lemon.
Lemon can cause skin irritations and red rashes, which will
burn in a scary way . You just have to consider that since citrus fruits are
highly reactive to the sun, imagine what they can do in that delicate area.
So don't try to replace it, just find the best deodorant
option for you. There are all kinds of natural options without the need for you
to expose yourself to these kinds of dangerous alternatives.
Mouthwash to combat dandruff
Another tip on the scale from "terrible" to
"terrible idea" is to use mouthwashes to remove dandruff. Apart from
the fact that there is no scientific data to support it, dandruff is caused by
an increase in yeast and is often accompanied by a compromise in the skin
barrier. So using a high alcohol mouthwash can further disrupt the scalp's skin
barrier , making it worse!
The most effective way to combat dandruff is with a
clinically proven zinc pyrithione shampoo and conditioner.
Deodorant to combat the brightness of the face
If it bothers you that your face shines, trust us, the
alternative is not to apply deodorant, contrary to what many suggest.
Antiperspirants work by blocking the sweat glands, but they fail to have the
same effect on the fat-producing cells on your face. If you decide to ignore
our warning, prepare yourself for congested pores and a completely breakout
face.
Better opt for a primer that absorbs oil from the skin.

after makeup .
Anti-nappy creams on skin rashes
Although experts agree that diaper rash creams can help
soothe and soothe inflamed skin or soften a pimple, they don't recommend
spreading it all over the face . If your skin is sensitive, acne-prone, and
tends to be oily, an ingredient like zinc oxide that clogs pores (often found
in diaper rash creams) can trigger worse breakouts.
Paying attention to the ingredients of the products you use
is of the utmost importance. Look for a product that contains benzoyl peroxide
to kill and fight acne-causing bacteria. There are ideal masks to deal with
your face if you suffer from severe acne, while there are other treatments to
apply on the affected area in a specific place.
Using onion to speed up eyebrow growth
Perhaps the sulfate in onions is used to kill bacteria and
fungi on the skin, it may be used to combat dandruff, but what it surely does
not do is accelerate hair growth.

eyes? - I don't think so. Instead of this measure that would probably make you
cry, and not only because of the reaction it has naturally but because in the
end you will realize that it has not helped at all, opt for topical minoxidil,
a serum specialized in the growth of the eyebrows, or resume your initial
search and focus on the illusion through makeup.
Garlic for pimples
For more inflammatory properties that garlic has, you will
still smell terrible. So you can basically file this tip in the "Not
dangerous but gross" category. And since garlic does not guarantee
results, better opt for an effective solution such as a cream that contains one
percent cortisone.

traditional powders for cornstarch.

ideal food for the yeast and fungi that live on your skin.
So return the cornstarch to the pantry and go back to the
traditional and in exchange for we give this tip: if you run out of powders or
you are tight on money and you cannot buy them, opt for some eye shadows that
are cheaper and fix the concealer. the same way. And you can take advantage of
the colors! Discover how to use them to hide imperfections.
Dish soap as a lipstick remover
Surely you've ever heard that dish soap is great for
removing lip stains from your favorite blouse - and it works. But you know what
it's not for? - to get it off your lips. Well, while it's not going to make
your lips fall, it's going to dry them terribly.
So if you can't achieve the desired result with your daily
makeup remover, opt to try micellar water - not a trace will remain.
Vaseline to treat acne
If you put yourself in the task of looking for explanations
of why Vaseline works wonders to treat acne on YouTube, you will find endless
videos. The truth is that although the skin does not literally need to breathe,
a heavy layer of Vaseline on it is not a good alternative .
Better apply it on other products, treatments or medications
for acne, this way you seal the ingredients in your skin that will fight acne
in the affected areas.
