Skincare: 5 false myths to dispel

1. If you don’t wear make-up, you can skip cleansing

Totally untrue. Polluting particles, dead cells, and impurities accumulate throughout the day on your face, even if you don’t necessarily feel it dirty. This in combination with your skin’s sebum can cause blemishes and blackheads. It is necessary to choose the proper cleanser suitable for keeping your skin healthy and glowing. From oil-based to foam cosmetics, these gentle deep-cleansing pore solutions will help remove dead surface skin cells and improve your look. In particular, the Facial Cleansing Oil, belonging to the new Active Beauty collection by Terme di Saturnia Beauty & Health, is a rich oil-non-oil texture that provides a gentle foaming reaction with water and purifies delicate skin.

2. Oily skin does not need moisturizer

This is one of the most common erroneous beliefs. No matter the skin type, every skin, whether combination, dry, sensitive, or acne-prone, can benefit from daily moistening. Not moisturizing often causes plentiful sebum production in response to your skin’s lack of water. Accordingly, it is important to use a lightweight, sebum-normalizing, and quickly absorbed cream, like the Pro-Aqua Active Cream, which rehydrates the top layer of your skin and repairs the barrier thanks to ingredients like ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and liposomes, for a healthy and beautiful complexion.

3. Anti-aging skincare routine is only for mature skin

No mistake about it. The right age to start using anti-aging cosmetics is 25, according to dermatologists. In fact, at this time, you can start considering preventive measures in order to delay the appearance of wrinkles or fine lines around your eyes, which sooner or later will form. After cleansing your skin, you can apply face cream like the Pro-Youth Cream, an anti-aging cream that improves skin elasticity for a youthful-looking complexion and lifting effect. Give instead your skin the plumping emulsion Juvenage Plumping Face Cream if you want to protect the epidermis also from the photodamage of UV radiation. Both can be used in combination with the multifunctional Age Defense Bioplancton Serum, which fights against aging and reshapes face contouring. In addition, it stimulates the inner collagen production in the skin for visibly firmer and brighter skin.

4. The skin gets accustomed to skincare products

Another erroneous belief is that some ingredients in your beauty routine, after a while, become weaker, so it is necessary to replace cosmetics often. Sometimes, if you feel that your serum or cream is not working anymore, it is probably due to other age-related hormonal, metabolic, and seasonal alterations. On the other hand, if you change your beauty routine constantly, that can be stressful and cause skin irritation and increased sensitivity. In light of the above, you don’t want to struggle with it.

The new Active Beauty collection by Terme di Saturnia Beauty & Health is just created for bringing perfect harmony to your skin and taking care of your beauty naturally without impacting your health.

5. Exfoliating thins out your skin

A large amount of fake news has been circulating blaming the exfoliation process, which instead improves the effectiveness of your skin and increases its brightening. Scrubs, for example, are beneficial for cell turnover and no, it’s not true that they reduce the stratum corneum. If you are looking for an exfoliating and at the same time nourishing treatment, then try the Thermal Body Scrub, a biphasic cream enriched with Bioplancton, sweet almond oil, and hyaluronic acid, which performs a gentle and reawakening action.
