Claire Chang: "The more you wash your face, the better."

Myth: "If you feel a tingling or burning sensation,

My name is Ni'Kita Wilson, and I'm a cosmetic chemist.

"Drinking extra water will make your skin look better."

Chang: Although drinking an adequate amount of water

that drinking extra water goes straight to your skin

or that it can improve your skin hydration.

Excess water is most likely just filtered

Wilson: I can personally attest to the extra water

"Your skin will get used to the products you use,

It's not a matter of your skin getting used to the products.

There comes a point where those ingredients have done

all they could possibly do for your skin.

Chang: If you've noticed a huge improvement

and then notice less improvement over time,

it may be because over time we reach a plateau

and at this point the ingredients are still working,

you should apply your products thinnest to thickest,

and those with the active ingredients should go on first.

it's going to be hard-pressed to fight its way

through those barriers that we created in the cream

So definitely thinner, more active first,

Chang: So, I recommend doing a cleanser first,

then do your thicker moisturizers and your creams,

then your sunscreen, and then your makeup.

Our next myth is, "Pores can get smaller."

Chang: There is also a circulating myth going around

What can happen is your pores could swell up,

dead skin cells can get in there and swell.

from all this stuff that gets stuck in there,

and so they can kind of lean and become weak.

And that also could change the appearance

"You don't need to moisturize your face if it's oily."

There is a difference between skin oil and skin hydration.

So, sebum is secreted by your facial oil glands

But sebum can contribute to that oily, greasy look

I advise that you use the right moisturizers,

oil-free moisturizers that are noncomedogenic.

The lotions have a higher water-to-oil content,

whereas creams have a higher oil-to-water content.
