Truth Over Trends: Debunking Common Skincare Misconceptions
In the beauty world, advice is everywhere - but not all of it is accurate. As professionals, we know that radiant, healthy skin isn’t achieved by following trends, but by understanding skin science. At CARELIKA, we’re committed to helping cosmetologists and clients make informed choices by busting some of the most common skincare myths.
The more products you use, the better the results
Overloading your skin with serums, creams, and actives may do more harm than good. Layering too many products can lead to irritation, breakouts, or imbalance - especially if ingredients clash or overload the skin barrier.
The truth: Simplicity and consistency win. A well-structured routine with the right active ingredients - even just 3-4 products - can deliver visible, long-term results. CARELIKA range is designed to support effective routines tailored to individual skin needs.
Oily skin doesn’t need moisturizer
Many people with oily skin avoid moisturizers, fearing it will increase shine. In reality, dehydration triggers the skin to produce even more oil, worsening the problem.
The truth: All skin types need hydration. The key is to choose lightweight, non-comedogenic formulas that maintain balance without clogging pores.
Anti-aging skincare is only for people over 40
Preventive care always works better than correction. Waiting until deep wrinkles appear means missing the opportunity to protect collagen and elasticity early on.
The truth: Skincare with antioxidants, peptides, and sun protection should be introduced in your 20s or 30s. Early care is smart care.
A tingling or burning sensation means it’s working
Some assume that a strong sensation means active ingredients are effective. But discomfort is often a sign of irritation or barrier disruption.
The truth: Good skincare should feel comfortable. Visible results don’t require a burning feeling - just consistency and the right formulas.
Skincare alone can eliminate deep wrinkles
While high-quality products improve skin texture, hydration, and firmness, they can’t completely erase deep-set wrinkles without professional intervention.
The truth: Combine CARELIKA intensive treatments with massage techniques, carboxytherapy, or aesthetic procedures.
Sunscreen is only for sunny days
Cloudy weather and indoor settings still expose skin to UVA rays, which are responsible for premature aging and pigmentation.
The truth: Daily sun protection is essential - year-round. Make SPF a non-negotiable step in every morning routine.
Behind every beautiful skin result is a professional who knows how to separate truth from trend.

Because when you choose knowledge, you choose results - and we’re here to help you every step of the way!
