Skin Care Myths And Your Beauty Regime

There are lots of skin care myths out there. Some of them are based upon fact, while others are just plain comical. Have you ever wondered about skin care myths? Below, you will find some of the most outlandish myths out there…and you may even come across one or two that aren’t myths at all.

Let’s begin with beloved chocolate. Many people believe that chocolate makes the skin break out. Not only is this a cruel way to think about chocolate, it is also…you guessed it…a myth. The truth is that food doesn’t make your skin break out in any manner. While some people believe that the skin will absorb food, this simply isn’t true.

Some things that will make your face break out include: stress, steroids, poor quality skin care creams; or creams that block pores. Now, on to that next myth: tanning. A lot of people believe that tanning will help to clear up acne. This just isn’t the case. In fact, tanning is so bad for your skin…it actually damages your skin more than it helps your skin.

The only way that a tan will help to hide your acne is if you burn your skin. Then, the red color from that burn may actually hide any acne scarring. Of course, this will lead to skin cancer, so it’s really not recommended. Speaking of tanning…another great myth is the one that goes something like this: “if I use a stronger sunscreen, I can stay in the sun for a longer period of time.”

This, of course, isn’t true. You shouldn’t spend any lengthy amount of time in the sun if you want to avoid skin damage. The best course of action is to use a sunscreen with an ingredient called Parsol. The most important thing is to make sure that the sunscreen you do use has UVB protection included in it. Otherwise, your skin will simply burn.

Let’s talk about lips for a moment. There is a rumour floating around out there that it is possible to become addicted to lip balm if you use it too often. Once again, this isn’t true. If you find that you have dry lips often, think about the number of times that you lick them. Licking your lips will cause them to dry out…but lip balm does not cause any kind of lip addiction.

See how silly some of these skin myths can be? So, the next time that someone tells you not to eat spicy food because…it will make you break out, tell them that you know better than to believe skin myths. The truth is that knowing all you can about your skin is the only way to protect it. If you aren’t sure about something you heard about skin, make sure to do your research.

The good news is that there are lots of great skin resources out there to choose from. When you want to know something about your skin, all you have to do is look for the answer. Skin may seem hard to understand with all of that false information floating around out there, but it’s actually easy to handle if you just pay attention to it.

Improve Many Skin Conditions

I have researched botanicals for over 20 years and have came across much valuable information. I am fascinated by the power of herbs. I found that herbs can naturally improve many skin conditions.

You have Hidden “Assault Intruders” in your body. Herbs can blast them away.

There are so many skin ailments in our society today. There are habits that we engage in that may be causing many of our skin problems.

Many have acne problems who blame these unsightly “Zits” on oil build-up, dirt and clogged pores. These may be the least likely suspects. The major problem of many skin ailments is “Toxin build-up” in the body. Many of these toxins come from the very foods that we eat. There are hidden “Assault intruders” in the very foods we eat. And yes, the industry knows that they are in there and that they are bad for you. Hence, why your body tries to spit them out.

Our bodies are bombarded with 100’s even thousands of these “assault intruders” everyday. Toxins can come from our environment. But, mainly from the foods that we are eating. Take the time to read the ingredient labels on your food purchases before thinking about putting them in your mouth. If you can’t pronounce an ingredient, then there is a good chance it is not organic food. It is an un-welcomed chemical additive. Next time you see one of these intruders listed on your ingredient label, Google it. Find out what it is. See what it is used for and the negative chemical reactions that it can have on your body.

When there is an overload of toxins in your body, what your body tries to do is get rid of them. Some may come out by regular everyday elimination. But, many toxins are bombarding your system every day and the regular everyday elimination may not be enough.

Your skin is your body’s largest organ. The skin, through it’s pores helps eliminate toxins. The more you sweat, the more your body is ridding itself of these intruders. But, considering the overload of these “assault intruders”, the skin tries to eliminate such huge amounts that skin problems do occur physically on your skin. One large cause of acne is body toxin waste showing up on the surface of your skin.

Herbs to the Rescue.

There are herbs that even when taken topically through the skin can eliminate toxins right out the skin and giving you a healthier look and radiant skin.

Here are some beneficial herbs that can eliminate these toxins, right out of your skin. Acne can be easily cleared up in a matter of a few days, as well as many of your skin ailments.

Dandelion has been given a bad wrap by the media and weed killer industries. Dandelion is a very therapeutic herb for our body. Dandelion is not an unsightly weed with no purpose, but to haunt your lawns. Did you know that dandelion eliminates cancer cells from your body when taken internally ? Topically, it is beneficial in soothing and repairing sun-damaged skin. Dandelion with Sage, which is another therapeutic herb eliminates toxins out of the skin and clears acne.
