Beauty Myths Exposed – Part II
August 19, 2008
We continue from where we left off exposing beauty myths people tend to believe in, even when there is not scientific proof to prove a beauty statement.
Frequent Haircuts Stimulate Hair Growth
Hair grows at the same speed no matter how often you cut or trim your locks! However, regular trims help keep stringy split ends in check for healthier-looking hair.
Breakouts Are The Result Of Oily Skin
Oily skin is not always the reason behind frequent skin break-outs. Despite an oil problem, your acne could be the result of extreme skin sensitivity. Change your whole cleansing routine using skin products that are more suitable for highly sensitive skin, and you may just clear up the break-outs.
That Colour Is Not Me
No line is heard more often than: ‘I can’t wear that colour!’ While, one shade of red might make you look like a member of the clown squad, another could bring out your inner Marilyn Monroe! All you have to do is simply to pay attention to shades and undertones in finding your colour. While, a blue-red may not work on you, an orange-red just might.
Chlorine Tends To Turn The Hair Green
Why blame chlorine when it is actually copper that is the culprit! Poorly maintained pools often lead to copper deposits in hair, which while initially invisible, turns green after washing with any high-pH shampoo. This is more likely to happen to blondes, simply because they have less pigment in their tresses. Counter this problem by simply using a low-pH shampoo and be more careful where you swim!
Spider Veins Are The Result Of Crossing Legs
Actually, you it is genes that play the biggest role in developing spider or varicose veins. If, your mother or grandmother has spider or varicose veins, you are quite likely to have them too, and you are just as likely to pass these genes on to your children, as well.
While, we have exposed just a few, there are many beauty myths that abound out there and need to be busted!
