Skincare Trends You Don't Need | Dermatologist Tips

Oil Cleansers are often marketed as miracle products, but they can actually cause breakouts over time. Dr. Shereene Idriss, a board-certified dermatologist, emphasizes that oil cleansers may not be suitable for everyone, especially those with oily or acne-prone skin. She recommends using sulfur-based products or a double cleanse method with a gel-based cleanser instead. 🧼🚫

Essences and Toners are frequently misunderstood and overused in skincare routines. Dr. Idriss points out that many people layer too many products without understanding their actual benefits. She suggests simplifying your routine and focusing on products that truly address your skin concerns, rather than following every trend. 🧴🤔

The beauty industry is constantly pushing the latest and greatest products, but Dr. Idriss warns against blindly following trends. She advises listeners to listen to their skin and choose products that have been tried and true in their own routines. Your skin is not a trend, and skincare should be based on what works best for you, not what's popular. 🌟🙅‍♀️
