Skincare is an essential routine in our lifestyle and we do it not just to enhance our appearances but also to keep the skin healthy

There is a belief that sunscreen should be applied properly on face to protect our skin against the harsh UV rays of the sun

However, it is still necessary to wear sunscreen indoors as UV rays can still penetrate through windows

Dermatologist Dr. Geetika Mittal Gupta reveals that shielding your skin from harmful rays every day with sunscreen regardless of your location is essential

Here are some of the skincare myths that you should consider unlearning again-

Myth 1 - Warm water opens and cleanses pores

Contrary to popular belief, warm water doesn't magically open your pores. Opt for lukewarm water to cleanse your face and follow up with proper skincare regimen

Myth 2- Toothpaste gets rid of pimples overnight

This beauty hack which was popularized by Gigi Hadid is not effective and can actually irritate your skin and worsen the situation. Stick to dedicated acne treatments for better results

Myth 3- Natural skincare is always safe for sensitive skin

If a product is labelled as "natural" doesn't guarantee it's suitable for sensitive skin. Always check the ingredients and opt for products specifically formulated for sensitive skin types
