Misconceptions about beauty

If you think that eating more fruit is better, then you are making one of the 7 most common mistakes women make.

There are some beauty concepts that are often just word of mouth or subjective, but they are not as true as you think. Who knows, these misconceptions are making your beauty worse:

1. Eat as much fruit as possible, can replace vegetables

You think that fruit contains all the beneficial substances for the body such as fiber, vitamins, and micronutrients, so you should eat as much as possible, even eat it instead of vegetables.

In fact, it is not like that at all. No matter how valuable vitamins are, the body only needs a certain amount. When you give your body too many vitamins by eating too much, you may get sick.

For example, if you eat too many red and yellow fruits (fruits rich in vitamin A) such as tangerines, bananas, carrots, peppers, and pumpkins, you risk getting jaundice. Eating too much lychee, longan, and durian can cause heat rash, acne, or ulcers.

Do not eat fruit instead of vegetables.

To have healthy and beautiful skin, you should regulate your intake appropriately. For example, you should only eat a maximum of 3 medium-sized tangerines per day, and no more than 250g of lychee or longan.

Fruits cannot replace vegetables because vegetables have their own vitamins and micronutrients. If you eat fruits instead of vegetables, your body will lack vitamins and many micronutrients.

2. Treat acne by applying face masks regularly

When the skin has acne, applying a mask is a big mistake, especially nutritious, moisturizing masks such as cucumber mask, potato mask... Because at that time the skin is already damaged, the capillaries are very sensitive when exposed to nutrients. If you apply the wrong type of mask and use it too often, it will even cause more acne. Because the pores are clogged, bacteria have more environment to grow. Therefore, when you have acne, the first thing to remember is not to apply a mask randomly.

3. Can tighten pores with specialized cream

Your pores are too large, you want to fix it with pore tightening creams. However, do not believe the attractive advertisements of the manufacturer. You can only soften the skin with facial masks or peels, you can not change the size of pores.

4. Waxing will make hair grow back thicker and coarser.

If you are planning to wax your legs, but you are wondering whether the hair will grow back thicker and harder after waxing. You can rest assured to do waxing. In fact, after waxing, your skin will be smooth and white, so after a while, when the hair grows back, you feel that the hair is thicker and harder. In fact, it is still the same as before.

5. Leave mascara on overnight to condition lashes

In fact, mascara can cause your lashes to fall out if you leave it on for too long, so always remember to remove your makeup before going to bed, no matter how busy you are.

6. Drinking water will help clear up acne

Water only helps you prevent dehydration. So don't expect your skin to be clear of acne just by providing a lot of water to your body. However, preventing dehydration will make the skin dry and hinder the cells from recovering and regenerating. Therefore, providing enough water is best. As for acne treatment, you should pay more attention to your diet.

7. Fake nails cause real nails to break

If you like wearing fake nails because with a pair of pretty fake nails, your hands will look clean and outstanding. However, you are wondering whether fake nails will damage your real nails and break them. Rest assured, fake nails will not break your real nails. Real nails only break when you remove fake nails with the wrong tools. So just pay attention to using the right nail removal tools and everything will be fine.
