We use many cosmetic products on a daily basis, such as deodorants, creams, toothpastes, perfumes and the like. However, experts warn that using only these is not suitable for every day, as they can harm us. Let's see which cosmetic products it is recommended to avoid as often as possible.
1. Dry shampoo
If we don't have time to wash our hair, we often use dry shampoo to hide a dirty scalp. If you use it every day, the scalp dries out and the hair becomes brittle over time. It can also cause irritation, making your scalp itchy and flaky. Experts recommend using dry shampoo in very extreme cases.
2. Hair mask
To keep your hair hydrated, use a hair mask regularly. Because hair masks are particularly rich in protein, they can disrupt the pH of the hair and cause it to become more brittle brittle and breaking. If you want to take proper care of your hair, it is better to prepare a little heated coconut oil, massage it into the scalp and then wash it off after half an hour. In this way, the hair will be nourished and will not lose its ph value.
3. Lip balm
Are you one of those people who won't leave the house without lip balm? Be careful when using a product that is too oily. Many lip care products contain mineral oils that cover the skin like a film. You can do that causes swelling and dehydration.

4. Make-up base
Foundation or primer is a magical make-up product that has become an absolutely indispensable part of the daily routine. It smoothes the skin and prepares the perfect base for applying powder, prolongs the durability of make-up, absorbs excess fat, controls the appearance of pigments and thus prevents the skin from drying out. But be careful, because your skin is not a big fan of these "coatings". The silicone it contains clogs pores. This, in turn, can cause rashes and pimples. The skin needs to breathe, so daily use of this type of foundation is not suitable, so use this product only on special occasions.
5. Waterproof mascara
It lasts with you on the beach or the pool, it's up to long summer parties, challenging bike trips and hot days in the big city. But alas, waterproof mascara dries the eyelashes, these can break and that is why it is not recommended to use it on a daily basis. If you cannot avoid waterproof mascara, first use normal mascara and then apply waterproof mascara over it, as this prevents direct contact with the eyelash.
