True or False

NativeJax — Sat, 18 Feb 2017 23:50:53 GMT

I thought it might be interesting for people to post something the beauty industry tells us that we either truly believe or it's completely false....

I believe it's False that you can use collagen products and improve the collagen in your skin....

I believe that it is false to say a product can lift or tighten sagging skin.

I believe it is false that we all need to be concerned with improving our aging skin and making it look younger. It is OK to look your age.

I see it as false advertising when commercials or vendors say this or that will take off years. No topical product takes off years.

Sunscreen helps prevent premature wrinkles. TRUE!

I think it's false that the celebs hawking certain skin care actually use it. I don't know that I've ever heard them say they use it; just what it supposedly does. Then people just assume that Jennifer Anniston uses whatever she is hawking, or the other celebs.

Mascara commercials that use false eyelashes or lash inserts. But if you don't read the fine print below, you will believe that brand of mascara can make you look like the model.

I believe it's true that there are products (different for everyone) that will actually improve the look of everyone's skin and actually make them look younger. I've found many that work for me.

It's definitely true that eating a healthy diet, keeping a healthy lifestyle over several years will keep your complexion and body healthy and looking vital and youthful. I believe that once the damage is done, you cannot un-do it. Start early! If you're healthy on the inside, it shows on the outside.

It's true that a confident, happy attitude will keep a person looking and feeling younger. It's not all cosmetics - it's YOU.

It's true that some masks and treatments will "temporarily" smooth complexions and tighten pores.

It's true that yes, absolutely!, Vitamin C brightens complexions and prevents further dark spots. It's true that using Retinol consistently will keep skin smoother -- but it does not reverse damage done. It stops the clock and keeps complexions youthful longer.

It's positively true that everyone's skin is different -- not every product will work for every person. And no cosmetic, no matter the cost, is a fountain of youth.

It is not true that the more expensive a product is, the better it will work. The high-end, department store, products are no better than the less expensive products.

Stay out of the sun, you'll look younger! Very true.

@JacieI was shocked by a recent picture of a group of my mom's friends. They had a little reunion last month and OMG, the three who moved to Florida looked SO much older than the ladies who are still in NY. What an advertisement to stay out of the sun!

So much of what they say is false that I wouldn't know where to begin. My pet peeves are those companies that purport to be "natural" and who scare the public about chemicals and all sorts of ingredients not proved to be harmful.

False.

@jubilant, how funny because I just read in another current thread here that eyeshadow looks awful on a woman over 60 and thought the same thing: FALSE.

It's all individual.
