TIKTOK BEAUTY PRODUCTS THAT ARE NEVER WORTH YOUR TIME

Liquid chlorophyl

While many claims about adding liquid chlorophyl in water to clear acne went viral, dermatologists and cosmetologists are yet to prove it. @elletaylor929 was among the Tik Tok content creators that narrated their success story, saying it enhanced the skin’s redness and texture. But I refuse to agree because it is not convincing. It may be promising but science must look into it.

Lube primer

Since when has lube started being applied on the face? I am against the ide because lube is mainly for sex no matter the modification in the names. Several Tik Tok users shared the usefulness of lube makeup primer, noting that it smoothens the glide and makes the base fresh and perfect. But I always warn my clients against mixing sex accessories and makeup. The former mostly contains chemicals that can leave you with acne and skin irritation.

Sea salt acne applicant

This is a DIY makeup product and personally, I don’t recognize such. Perhaps sea salt is great for skin redness and inflammation. But I do not recommend it for treating acne. Using the product may only delay your appointments with a specialist. You may also develop scarring and hyperpigmentation.

Nail polish remover tampons

This product only went viral due to its uniqueness and the fact that not many use tampons for removing polish on the nails. It only wastes your time and resources since normal swab or cotton can do. Why can’t you save the tampons for menstruation instead?
