After applying a mask, the stratum of the corneum is excessively hydrated, and the defensive ability of skin is lowered. So that the substances such as fragrances and preservatives in cosmetics are more likely to irritate the skin.

Sunscreen products can be cleaned with ordinary cleansing product such as facial cleanser, and the extra makeup remover would increase the risk of over-cleaning.
- It’s sugar that makes you get pimples, not spicy food

- Don’t apply mask every day
The main function of the mask is to replenish water. The healthiest condition of our cuticle water content is between 10% and 20%. It is not good if it is too much. Frequent application of the mask would cause excessive hydration of the stratum corneum and may damage the skin barrier.
According to the skin condition of different people, it can be done twice a week.
- Applying makeup 5 minutes after you have applied sunscreen
Whether it is physical or chemical sunscreen, you should wait for it to dry a little. Otherwise, the makeup process such as the action of wiping and patting will cause the sunscreen to be uneven.
- Don’t spray your face with sunscreen spray
Firstly, the spray is easy to spray into the eyes, and it is easy to be sucked in with the breath;
Secondly, it’s hard to put the sunscreen evenly with the way of spray;
Finally, if you have makeup, it is more inconvenient to apply sunscreen lotion or cream. Considered this, you may still choose sunscreen spray, after all, it’s better than nothing.
But to remind everyone, sunscreen spray is oily, so it is easy to disturbing the makeup. It is better to use physical sunscreen product before makeup and taking an umbrella when about to go outside.
- Detox is a bogus concept
We are not venom, OK? We lived well when there is no such concept of “detox”. The real detoxification organ of human body is liver, sweat doesn’t detox, and neither does shit.
- Primer won’t prevent you from anything
Primer with an SPF value is a make-up base with effect of a low-power sunscreen. It can’t keep you from anything else.

- No need to turn off the light when applying Vitamin C and Retinol
It’s usually said that we should avoid light when put on Vitamin C and Retinol. The light we mentioned here is the sunlight, not lamplight. There’s no need to put on Vitamin C and Retinol during the day, because they will get oxidized, so that they work very well, it’s kind of a waste.
By the way, we worried that you might fall if you turn off the light.

The salt intake per person is around 10.6 grams a day, and the lead content in these salts is around 21.2 micrograms.
Obviously, the amount of lead in the lipstick is completely within the safe range of the human body.
- Toner can’t be patted into the skin
An elephant’s cannot step on an ant, and your “huge” fingers can’t touch the water molecules. Even if you can touch the water molecules, it still has nothing to do with whether the water molecules can be absorbed by your skin or not.

If you want to remove scar you should take advantage of this time. Use medicine or aesthetic medicine. After the golden period, it will be even more difficult.

If an elastic band has already been stretched up and has lost its elasticity, don’t expect that it could return to its original shape, and the pores are the same.
If you do want to shrink your pores, you’d better try aesthetic medicine, just lie down and let them do the rest.
- Don’t share sun umbrella with others
Because…
The area everyone occupies of the umbrella would be smaller, and they would be close to the edge of the umbrella, the sunscreen effect there is not good.
- Skin care technique has nothing to do with the effect
I mentioned about pat above. Actually, there are much more than it, lifting, massage, etc. Please, save your face! From the perspective of the efficacy of skin care products, they are useless.
You feel like that skin care products are absorbed faster, but they are actually evaporated faster.

Why should the anti-hair loss products make people grow their hair?
Anti-hair loss is to prevent the hair from falling off; hair growth, is another thing.
- Choosing what kind (brand) of skin care product has nothing to do with your age
“My mom is using this brand, am I too young to use it?”
Come on! What skin care products should you use is related to your skin type and condition but has nothing to do with your age.
When you choose skin care products the sales would say: This is good for you because it’s an oil-control product or it could replenishing water. I never met anyone ban you from buying anything because you are too young or too old.
- Keep your makeup tools clean
Make-up products are usually sterilized and preservative, they won’t bring much trouble.
But brushes and makeup sponge are being used again and again. If they are not cleaned frequently, they will be the paradise of the bacterium.
- You won’t get thicker hair after shaving
It is said that the more you shave, the thicker your hair would be. However, mechanisms of action on hair growth is inside the skin and scraping outside the skin couldn’t affect the inside at all.
But many people would say that their hair do looks thicker after shaving. That’s because our hair is showing a cross section when without being scratched. Shaving the hair is like to making a oblique section for the hair, which is much larger than the cross section. So that your hair looks thicker.
- You are risking your life when Squeeze your pimple
There is a network of veins that sit behind your facial triangle area, called cavernous sinus. Squeezing your pimples in this area may cause the blood go back to the cavernous sinus with bacteria, which may lead to embolization of the cavernous sinus.
The consequences are…bad!
- Preservatives are not terrible, neither are chemicals
Don’t be crazy about products that claimed have no preservatives added in. As long as it is a qualified product, the amount of preservatives and other chemicals must be controlled within a standard for skin safety.
Be careful about those preservative-free products. The growth of microorganisms must be inhibited. If no preservative is added, what is added then?
- Pure nature is not equal to safe & effective
Consumers like products with that kind of Pure-nature slogan on its package. The truth is that pure nature is not always the safest and the most effective.
Some natural extracts are even more complex and pose a higher risk to the skin.

Whether it is skin care products or cosmetics, they can only affect the epidermal layer but far away from the fetus.
Besides, in the regulations, skin care products and cosmetics that are not available to pregnant women will not be approved.

- Don’t buy any DIY skincare product
There are some people who DIY skin care products themselves. This product can be used by themselves, but it is not legal for sale in many countries.
DIY skincare products are also not guaranteed to be safe.
Is the microbiological control qualified? Have you add preservatives? How much has it added? Are the raw materials and packaging materials qualified? Have your products met the national regulations for skin care products?
- It’s not the more ingredients, the better
Some people like long ingredients lists, and they think if the things inside are rich the effect must be better. Those products with short ingredients list, It must not work very well.
Actually, the more complex the ingredients are, the more potential instability factors there would be, and they would pose a higher risk to the skin. Just like eating too much different things can hurt your stomach.
- It’s not the more function, the better
The way the functional ingredients in skin care products work is “signal transmission.” If there are too many signals transmitted at one time, your skin can’t take it.
It’s like if your boss assigned you one or two task, you will remember it and do it very well. But if ten tasks are assigned at once, you will break down.
- Oily skin also need to be hydrated
Many girls with oily skin would have ideas like: There is enough oil so there must be no shortage of water. And they won’t pay much attention to hydration.
Whether the skin is oil or not is the matter of sebaceous glands. Whether the skin is dry or not is the matter of water content of the stratum corneum. Sebum secreted by sebaceous glands can affect the water content of the stratum corneum, but it’s not the only factor.
Therefore, the hydration still needs to be done!
- Less is more
This is the idea of streamlining skin care.
Like we said above: It’s not the more ingredients in the product, the better. It’s also not the more skin care products you use, the better.
More skin care products means more ingredients and higher concentration, so it’s more likely to irritate the skin.
- Skin care intolerance is not necessarily a product problem
Everyone has the possibility of being intolerant of certain ingredients. This does not mean that the product has a problem or is a fake. Therefore, I hope that everyone will treat it rationally.
Someone would be allergic to drug, and someone even be allergic to eggs.
- Medicines can’t be used as skin care products
There are people ask me about medical matters, however, I am not professional in this field. So I suggest you go to a professional doctor.
There are even some people eager to try prescription drugs. Drugs are drugs, which are used to treat diseases, Don’t use it carelessly.
- Age spots are not for old people only
The age spots are also known as “liver spots”, which appear gradually as people age. But this is not for the elderly only. I have already had two age spots on my arm. That’s because I was lazy and I never use sunscreen when I was young.
Therefore, if you don’t want to have age spots at a young age, you should use sunscreen every day.
- High concentration of VC may turn cuticle yellow, but it will be recovered after stop using it.
Many people said after they use VC for a while, they felt that their skin turned yellow. This is indeed possible, especially in the thick part of the stratum corneum, which is more likely to block the VC. After a while, VC will oxidize and turn yellow.

Cleansing soap is alkaline and our skin surface is weak-acidic, which means the cleancing soap is not that good for our skin.
Most of the cleansing soap has a strong cleaning power, which is also not that good to our skin barrier.

- Gold, diamonds in skin care products are just gimmicks
Sounds very high-end, after all, this is real money. But the problem is it doesn’t work at all.
According to a friend who has worked in the skincare giant industry, they have produced a skin care product with gold powder inside. In order to prevent some people who wants to do the trick, a tiny bottle of gold powder is taken care of by a manager.
When the other processes are done, the manager would hold the bottle of gold powder, mysteriously and carefully poured it into the product. After mixing evenly, the product can be bottled.
Gossip, just for fun.

Sometimes it takes more than 6 months to repair.
Repairing the skin barrier is somehow more troublesome than repairing a broken relationship.

But please be patient, know your skin and choose the most suitable skin care products. Don’t damage your skin and waste your money.

- The main function of the spray is to soothe the skin, not to hydrate the skin
Many people buy sprays and want to hydrate the skin by using it. Unlucky, you may be disappointed.
The most important fuction of the spray is to soothe the skin.
If your face turn red in the hot summer, you can use it to soothe your skin; if your skin is sensitive and itchy, you can use it to soothe your skin; if your face is tight in the air-conditioned room, you can use it to soothe your skin.
But when it comes to hydrating, in fact, spray can’t do much help. It could only hydrates the outermost layers of the dry stratum corneum.
Moisture is difficult to penetrate from the outside into the skin. This is also the function of the skin barrier.
- Don’t put your skincare products into other containers
Qualified skin care products are strictly inspected in terms of anti-corrosion and compatibility between products and packaging materials.
If you put the skincare products into other containers, the contact area between the product and the packaging material becomes larger, the microbial growth may be accelerated, and the compatibility of the packaging material with the product may also be a problem.
