Flawless skin is a flawed dream!
But what is more flawed are age-old skincare myths about anti-ageing creams, sunscreens and other skincare products. These myths and misconceptions surround us everywhere and cloud our judgment.
Our skincare experts come together to debunk the most common myths for you to unlock healthy and radiant skin.
Myth 1: You Only Need Sunscreen on Sunny Days
One of the most dangerous myths is that sunscreen is only necessary on bright, sunny days. UV rays can penetrate clouds and even glass, causing skin damage regardless of the weather. This is why it’s crucial to use Sun Cream SPF 50 every day. A broad-spectrum sunscreen protects against both UVA and UVB rays, preventing premature ageing and skin cancer.
Expert tip: When you buy Sun Cream SPF 50 it is important to know what the labels mean. Know here how to decode a sunscreen label.
Myth 2: Anti-Aging Products Are Only for Older People
Anti-ageing cream is often thought to be reserved for those already experiencing signs of ageing.
However, incorporating these products into your routine early can help prevent the onset of wrinkles and fine lines. To reverse skin damage from ageing, it is recommended to use anti-ageing cream before the onset of fine lines and wrinkles, from the late 20s to early 30s.
The Albizzia Age Reversal Elixir is a potent blend helping with collagen synthesis and dermal remodelling with ingredients peptides, alkaloids, Provitamin B5, and an advanced Albiquench essential extract.
Myth 3: Cleansing More Often Leads to Better Skin
Our experts often get asked about it. But the true face of excessive cleansing comes with striping off natural oils and moisture, leading to dryness and irritation.
Using a gentle Cleansing Mousse twice daily is sufficient for most skin types. This helps to remove dirt, oil, and makeup without disrupting the skin's barrier or natural pH levels.
Our Cleansing Mousse contains soothing ingredients like apple amino acids and hyaluronic acid that maintain a healthy complexion without any irritation or dryness.
Myth 4: You Can't Reverse Skin Damage
While it's true that some damage is irreversible, many signs of skin damage can be reduced with the right products and routine. Regular use of Sun Cream SPF 50 can prevent further damage, while products like an anti-ageing cream can help to heal and rejuvenate the skin.
It is essential to choose formulations rich in antioxidants, peptides, amino acids and provitamins to reverse skin damage, promoting a healthier, more youthful appearance.
Myth 5: Skincare Products Work Instantly
Patience is vital in skincare. While some products can offer immediate benefits, such as a temporary plumping effect, most skincare products take time to show significant results.
Consistency is key. Regular use of anti-ageing cream or skin brightening cream can reveal visible improvements.
