Many women aspire to have a beautiful face and skin. There’s no surprise that a lot are aficionados when it comes to these beauty enhancements and skincare products. There’s a lot of offline and online beauty stores in Singapore that offer tons of different branded products available in the market. Without a doubt, finding the right one that suits your skin is one of the main challenges when it comes to buying such products in retail stores. And apart from that, it takes a professional and familiarity to know behind those active ingredients in every product. Likewise, it takes experience too to determine which ones work for your skin.
Skincare fads
Most of the time, we are often swayed by the popularity and hype of beauty and skincare products instead of doing homework research behind it. Because it’s so easy to follow the hype train or the latest fad because the bigger the popularity, the safer we feel towards the product. Lacking knowledge if it will work or suits your needs. From well-known local or international beauty influencers to ambassadors and cult-following, the detective work when it comes to picking skin care products is thrown out of the window. For example; many are convinced to look for Korean beauty products in Singapore because of how popular they’re becoming nowadays.
Although there’s nothing wrong with following trends when it comes to skincare products, what works for one there’s a possibility that it will or would not work for another. The advantage of following such fads lets us become aware of the latest cost-effective and cost-efficient solution to skin problems which can be added to our options list.
Another thing is some skincare trends can improve our skincare routine. But this shouldn’t always be the case. It’s always a must to follow professional recommendations because an individualised approach is an important part of finding the ideal product for your skin.
Is going for the ‘natural’ always better?
Pure, organic ingredients such as the well-known essential oils aren’t always the best choice when it comes to choosing the right skincare products. A lot of dermatologists stated that these natural and organic products or ingredients aren't always the smartest options you should stick in to. Just like any other, employing these natural ingredients/products that don’t always universally apply to just about anyone.
Many also argued that those ‘organic’ and ‘natural’ labels are done for marketing purposes and that it lacks proper specific industry standards for such products. Others may contain other ingredients that can cause allergic reactions which is why one should also be cautious when choosing ‘natural/organic’ labelled skincare products.
Knowing the ingredients behind
Just like what we have mentioned above, researching product ingredients can do the trick. It allows you to know if one of the active ingredients on the product will produce a negative reaction to your skin type. So there’s the product you may want to avoid and the one you should go after.
Looking at the main./primary the ingredient can be found at the top or usually among the first since ingredients will be listed from highest to lowest concentration. So looking at the first few (3-5 ingredients) can let you know and determine if they fall or the harmful or beneficial ingredients on your end.
