The Most-Hyped Skin Care Products, According to a Derm

Every other day we are bombarded with new make-up products in the market. And the minute we see them, we feel the urge to try them on. And thanks to social media, getting your hands on these new beauty concoctions is literally a click away.

However, not all beauty products are as effective as they boast to be.

 

According to Delhi-based celebrity dermatologist, Dr Deepali Bhardwaj, sunblock present in BB creams, lipsticks and hair sprays is just a promotion tactic and provides only patchy sun protection, leading to uneven complexion in the long run.

 

“I feel the sunblock should not exist in above, as it’s a gimmick!

According to her, body lotions with shine do not live up to the promise as well. “Also, the shine can lead to cancer. So, like a cigarette, the warning must come on the product for the consumer to decide.”

 

Now that you know, slap on the sunscreen before using any of the make-up products before you head out under the sun to take over the world.
