Beauty hacks spread fast, especially online, and many are just recycled misconceptions. Taking a step back keeps you from mistreating your skin in the name of a viral recipe.

Two ideas to put away

'Tight skin means clean skin': false, it often means the cleanser is too harsh. 'Pores open and close': they have no muscle, they don't open like a door.

The right reflex

Before following a hack, ask where it comes from and whether it makes sense. When in doubt about your skin, a health professional stays the best source, far from fleeting trends.
