100+ Common Skincare Myths Debunked: Get the Facts!

75) Myth: Skincare products can “detox” the skin.

Fact: The skin is equipped with its own natural detoxification processes and does not need to be “detoxed” by skincare products. While certain products, such as clay masks, may help to remove excess oil and impurities from the surface of the skin, they cannot detox the skin in the way that the body’s own systems do. It is important to support the skin’s natural detoxification processes by keeping it clean, hydrated, and nourished, but it is not necessary to use special “detox” products to do so.
