5 SKINCARE MYTHS BUSTED  DOS AND DONTS
                     5 SKINCARE MYTHS BUSTED: DOS AND 
DONTS
•As everyone’s skincare routine is different, certain universal concepts 
apply to almost everyone. Cleaning is necessary. Spots should be 
treated with toner. Oils should not be used on oily skin. 
•These are the rules that we’ve always been told to adhere to.
• It’s difficult to distinguish the hype from fact amid the relentless 
chatter about new must-have items, the flood of anti-aging remedies, 
and skincare tips from every corner.
MYTH 1: YOU SHOULD CLEANSE FIRST EVERY MORNING
•Most people’s personal morning routines begin with washing their 
faces, but you don’t need to use a cleanser. 
•“If you cleanse correctly at night before bed, you don’t need to cleanse 
in the morning,” White says. “As a general rule of thumb, you can 
remove all of your makeup and moisturize your skin before going to 
bed.
• If you’re doing this, all you have to do in the morning is spray your 
face with warm water. 
MYTH 2: WHEN YOU HAVE ACNE-PRONE SKIN, USE STRONG 
CLEANING PRODUCTS OR TONERS
•When you have an outbreak, it can seem logical to use harsh 
treatments and toners and try to dry it out. Acne skin is inflamed, and 
the skin’s integrity is jeopardized. 
•We shouldn’t use acids or alcohol on inflamed or damaged skin; 
instead, we should use gentle products. 
MYTH 3: WHETHER YOU HAVE OILY OR ACNE-PRONE SKIN, AVOID 
USING OILS
•Likewise, adding more oil to your oily skin is the last thing you want to 
do, right? 
•That’s incorrect. Oiliness can be caused by a variety of factors, 
including stress, diet, and genetics, as well as a lack of hydration. 
•Our skin has an oily layer called the acid mantle,’ which serves as our 
first line of protection.
MYTH 4: BLACKHEADS: WHAT TO DO TO GET RID OF THEM
•Extractions, which include the therapist using a tool or their fingertips 
to squeeze blackheads from your pores, are a common part of many 
facial procedures, whether you like them or not. 
•“Oil that comes from pores to keep skin hydrated oxidizes with air and 
turns black, forming blackheads.
MYTH 5: THAT WHEN A PRODUCT BURNS OR HURTS, IT’S A GOOD 
SIGN THAT IT’S DOING ITS JOB
•Exfoliating masks, for example, must sting a little if they’re doing their 
job, right? 
•White exclaims, “No!” “Most possibly, you’re getting an allergic 
reaction to the medication, and you should stop using it. 
•In different ways, skin is complex and fragile, and not every product is 
suitable for every skin type.
MYTH 6: SUNTAN ROOMS ARE SAFE AS LONG AS UVB RAYS ARE 
NOT PRESENT
•You’re aware that sun tanning is harmful to your health and can cause 
skin cancer and premature aging. 
•What about tanning booths, though? According to Jenny Kim, MD, an 
assistant professor of medicine and dermatology at the David Geffen 
School of Medicine at the University of California at Los Angeles, tanning 
booth companies often claim to screen out so-called “sunburn” UVB rays
•. When you visit a tanning salon, however, you are always exposing 
your skin to UVA rays, which penetrate deeper into the skin and cause 
harm that can result in premature aging and skin cancer.
MYTH 7: IT’S PREFERABLE TO POP A PIMPLE TO GET THE PUS OUT
•Although it feels great to get rid of [the pus], the fact is that a lot of it 
just goes deeper.
• “When it penetrates deeper into the tissue, it causes more 
inflammation, which can lead to scarring and spread under the surface. 
That’s why, a few days later, you’ll get another one that’s similar to the 
first.
