Skincare Myths

 Squeaky clean skin is GOOD  
NOT Squeaky clean disrupts the protective acid mantle and can make skin sensitive, itchy, red,  possibly with breakouts. Be Gentle, Use Gentle

Hot Water is Good for Your Skin  
Washing or showering in hot water actually removes oils and natural moisturizers from your skin. This can cause redness/dilated capillaries and leave skin dry and itchy.  

Pores Open and Close  
Pores do NOT open and close. Heat will soften the sebum in the pores making the pores look larger. Another reason to avoid heat.

Tanned Skin is Healthy Skin 
NOT Skin tans in order to protect itself from the sun. Tanned skin simply means your skin has been injured

Indoor Tanning is Safer Than Being in the Sun
Same, or more UV/UVA damage as the sun-and faster! Just say No.

Sunscreen Lasts All Day  
If you’re going to be outside for several hours, you should plan on reapplying sunscreen every 2-3 hours. Then Get Out of the Sun.
