Rumors
spread - and when girls talk about beauty, the word
gets out! What works for some women, doesn't
always work for others, and some advice is just
categorically untrue. Read on, and stay tuned
for the next section – true beauty myths.
Myth:
You must use skincare products all from the same
line.
Truth:
Use products from many different lines! There
are so many wonderful products out there, it is
a shame to commit yourself to one line for all of
your needs. No damage will occur to your skin
unless you are using a prescription line (such as
items with Retinol), then research a bit before
you mix and match.
Myth:
A shiny T-zone is indicative of oily skin.
Truth:
Shiny cheeks are indicative of oily skin…
a shiny t-zone alone shows balance in skin.
Myth:
Hypoallergenic products are the best for your skin.
Truth:
All products are subject to allergy testing prior
to being put on the market. The term “Hypoallergenic”
is not much more than a marketing ploy - but if
it makes you feel better...
Myth:
Long hair creates a younger appearance.
Truth:
On the contrary, long hair can make you look older
if it doesn't suit your style, especially those
of you with fine hair.
Myth:
You shouldn’t color your hair while pregnant.
Truth:
Like everything involving your body when you are
pregnant, consult your physician first.
There are many coloring products that are safe to
use, just research with both your physician and
a professional colorist prior to changing your hair
color.
Myth:
Nails are destroyed after wearing acrylic or other
fake nails.
Truth:
Nails become weak and begin to peel when taken off
without properly soaking them. Your natural
nails should return to their natural state almost
immediately.
Myth:
Follow your brow bone when shaping brows.
Truth:
There are many different shapes that suit one face,
talk it over with your aesthetician before shaping
your brows.
Myth:
Shaving causes hair to grow back thicker.
Truth:
When you shave, it cuts the hair at a sharp angle,
this will cause it to appear darker or more coarse.
