Girls, do your research if you love it so much!

If you love skincare and cosmetics so much and if you constantly mess with your hair and skin and such, at least learn what the different products and beauty methods do to your skin, on a molecular level, to avoid many of the complications you get! Research the hazards of each individual ingredient in your products too to avoid allergies or other long term exposure effects like cancer! It is important that you take personal responsibility for everything in life, including your body care products and methods. I know a doctor who says that women come to her all the time about skin care problems like rash, irritation etc and it is usually because the female does something to her skin and she doesn't even know what. She asked one of the patients with tingling irritation feelings in her armpit if she shaves there and if she use some after shave and shave cream product and the girl said no. The doctor then said well do you know why it is important to use those products? It is to avoid microwounds as you shave for and too keep it disinfected and minimize exposure of the woundsa afterwards to avoid infections and uncomfortable feeling. My doctor friend was like women are only interested in the outcome of their products and methods. They only want to know if what they buy will make them look in a certain way but they don't give a damn about what any of it does to the skin, if it actually works, what risks are involved etc. She recommends that you all read up some basic dermatology to know how skincare products really work to filter out the bullshit, research ingredients of all your products(what scientifical evidence is found about that ingredient), use as little products as possible to keep tab of things and minimize long term complications we don't even know about yet and use the stuff less often. Just some advice to maks your life less miserable.
