So you may be surprised that there are certain things that you may think are good for your face but just are not.
According to Dr. Anthony known as America's holistic plastic surgeon and who helps health conscious women over 30 look their best ,by teaching them a holistic approach to health and beauty.
Here are five things that you should never put on your face and I bet you're going to be surprised at some of the things that I have on my top five list on things to avoid on your face.
Well let's start with number five it's
Bar soap
I know at least everybody applies and has used bar soap to cleanse the skin on our faces countless times ,like most other men and probably most other women.
But bar soap is not good to wash your face, with bar soap is very drying to your skin and it often contains sodium lauryl sulfate. Which is a substance that causes the soap to lather really well, because we like lathering don't we?
Well unfortunately that same lathering substance can really really dry your skin
There is a common belief that sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) causes skin discomfort and irritation. So, people in beauty circles often advise avoiding products with sodium lauryl sulfate for skin care troubles.
Use bar soap on your body if you want,but keep it away from your face
Number four
Petroleum jelly
So you may have had it applied by your mother or your grandmother onto your face or your lips and it was seen and has been seen for a long time as the ultimate natural moisturizer.
Well take a look at what it is jelly, isn't so bad but petroleum it was actually discovered at the bottom of basically petroleum barrels and this is where it comes from and this is not good for your skin.
It can also clog your pores, it's very occlusive so if you've got any history of any type of acne not good to put on your skin. So stay away from petroleum jelly honestly over your whole body.
There are some natural ones made of beeswax that I would go with instead of petroleum
Number three
Body moisturizer
Body moisturizer is great for your body but not so great for your face and like petroleum jelly . Bodyworks riser can clog your pores ,it can
cause you to break out now. You can go to the store you can buy body moisturizer in these big bottles for just a few dollars as long as it doesn't contain harmful ingredients with unfortunate,which unfortunately a lot of them do.
Then it's not a bad idea to use that for your body but for your face stick with agood facial moisturizer. We have one natural and organic ingredients called the calming antioxidant moisturizer, it's a great moisturizer for your face does not clog your pores and has antioxidants in it . So use a moisturizer like that one made for your face not one made for your body.
Number two
Is rubbing alcohol
Astringents you may have heard of that or toners often contain alcohol in it,and it gives the same feeling as rubbing alcohol on your skin and that feeling basically is a nice clean.
Squeaky clean colder type of a feel and it feels good to put it on your skin . But what it does basically is, it rubs off all of the oils of your skin and there are people who have real oily skin .
They have acne issues, excess sebum and they think that using rubbing alcohol or astringents can get rid of that oil.
But what happens is it gets rid of the oil temporarily ,but then your skin realizes that it's missing oil and it creates even more oil in response. So what can happen is you can get into this vicious cycle,where if you've got oily skin and you're using rubbing alcohol or astringents or toners with alcohol that your skin actually gets more and more oily so stay away from it.
Interestingly enough a lot of people have oily skin, do really well with oils cleansing,cleansing your skin with oils.
Stay away from rubbing alcohol,stay away from astringents and toners that are filled with alcohol as well so.
Number one
Avoid putting on your face and this one's gonna be a bit controversial it is.
Yes,that so there are sperm facials that are very popular .uh people literally sell sperm facials for hundreds and hundreds of dollars and there is this belief that applying semen or sperm basically to your skin is actually good for it .
Well the reality is probably pretty far from that people say, well because it contains antioxidants. It's good for the skin I mean marginally but it has not really been tested just how much antioxidants are in that.
The other thing is people say well it contains a lot of protein, well meat contains a lot of protein as well and we don't necessarily apply meat to our skin.
The other thing with semen and sperm basically is that,it can contain sexually transmitted diseases and so chlamydia of your eye is not so fun.
So this is something that's kind of funny ,once again there are places that have these types of facials but it's not necessarily something that I would use as a beauty product. So I hope that thishas been educative for you.
