It can get quite confusing with all of the “latest” information about skin care on the market. Here are some of the most common skin care myths debunked from my San Antonio makeup artist experience!
• 
Tanning booths are safe: False! Even though tanning booths don’t use UVB rays, which can burn the skin, they still use UVA rays to tan the skin. UVA rays are primarily responsible for aging, so if you want to look like wrinkly leather in a short period of time, then tan away!
• You don’t have to use sunscreen when it is cloudy: False! Even when it is cloudy out, UV rays can penetrate through the clouds. If you are hoping to protect from the UVA rays, which cause premature aging and damage to the skin, then you do need to wear sunblock on a daily basis, even when it is cold and cloudy out.
• Expensive skin care products are better: False! It is important to read your ingredient labels above all, and a higher price tag does not necessarily mean a better product.
