Worst beauty tips of 2022: The year 2022 saw people experimenting with their looks more than ever, thus, introducing new beauty regime and skincare trends. DIY is an art, and has long been appreciated in the beauty market. While homemade face masks have proved to be a boon, some hacks are just better to be left alone in 2022.
Just when you thought TikTok is about creating ridiculous hook steps, beauty enthusiasts took things a notch higher, delivering more viral content than ever. With TikTok banned in India, our one-stop destination for viral content remains Instagram. From first hand review of skincare products to quick makeup hacks, there’s everything for the user to consume and bring it in daily practice. However, all that glitter is not gold. Lubricant is not primer. Banana is meant to be eaten and not to be used as mascara.
Today, we are listing six worst beauty tips of 2022 that forayed to trends across the world, courtesy mindlessly scrolling on social media.
Make up using fruits
One viral beauty hack in 2022 was make up using fruits. Beginning with just a tiny tint of cherry to burning banana to use it as mascara, the entire fruit basket was being used as a vanity. Kickstarted by Ukrainian user Maryna Molchanova, the trend was brought in practice by many content creators.
Lubricants as Primer
Putting lubricant on face as mattifying make up primer was another trend that fiercely caught up with internet users. As it’s obviously not formulated for your face and contains artificial fragrance, using lubricant as primer can trigger skin conditions such acne flare-ups, irritation and pimples.
Toothpaste on pimples
The trend was exactly not invented in 2022, but how about leaving it in 2022? Toothpastes are packed full of astringents like alcohol menthol & hydrogen peroxide. When used on bare skin, these products can trigger sores, even chemical reactions.
Coffee scrub for face
Any physical scrub on skin is a big no. In a world of chemical peels and exfoliators, harsh scrubbing is what you need to do the least. Scrubbing can rip your skin of moisture, making it look dehydrated and dull.
Pore strips for nose
The ripping motion of pore strips can be dangerous for your face. Pore strips also contain chemicals and synthetics which can trigger many skin conditions on sensitive skin. It can lead to redness, bruising and even broken blood vessels.
Frothing foundation in water
One make up trick that made rounds on social media was frothing your foundation using the same milk frother you’d use to whip up a matcha latte. This trend involves adding a few drops of foundation to a cup of water before blending the two ingredients with an electric milk frother. However, this will only create a mess. Another risk that comes with this technique is potential bacterial growth.
