4 Skincare Big Mistakes

Social media is full of beauty and wellness tricks, and do you believe everything you see? Not everything on the social network can be played safely and I'll explain why.

Betting on homemade masks 

"A fruit here, a spice there. Mix everything and apply it to the face with a brush" 

Home masks may even look practical and cheap, but they can cause irritation and burns, the results are unpredictable. There are countless tragic cases of burns, irritations, and blemishes.

Sunscreen Face Contour 

This is when you use sunscreen on certain areas of the face to keep the skin clearer while leaving other parts unprotected, to tan contouring and defining effect. The CORRECT way to avoid premature aging, blemishes, and cancerous lesions is to use sunscreen. If you only apply it to some parts of the face, over time you will have blemished and aged areas. In the long run, it's a bad deal.

Microneedling by yourself at home 

That sounds like a no. Rollers and pens pierce the skin and create micro scars. This procedure must be done using a revolver device with disposable microneedles that are for the exclusive use of professionals trained for its application, in an aseptic environment, free from bacteria, fungi, and viruses.

Using sandpaper to shave. 

Yes, videos of people shaving their legs with sandpaper have gone viral. The results are irritations, wounds, scars, and stains, causing micro-cracks, hurting the epidermis, and thus favoring the entry of harmful microorganisms, causing a secondary infection.
