- 4 years ago
Between coronavirus lockdowns and trying to save money due to job losses, DIY skin care is becoming increasingly popular.
According to dermatologists, making your own skin-care products can be a great idea. However, there are a few ingredients that should be avoided.
For example, lemons are very acidic and can leave the skin raw and discolored. Other ingredients, such as berries and spices, can stain.
Using toothpaste or baking soda to treat acne is a bad idea, because it can irritate and inflame the skin.
And applying raw egg to the skin can give you salmonella!
