皮膚病專家永遠不會將這些東西塗在臉上
In the pursuit of clear, smooth Skin, sometimes what you don't put on your face is just as crucial as what you do. "People bring in bags and bags of products they've tried," says NC-based dermatologist Brooke Jackson, MD. "But less is often more with skincare." Slathering on every new wonder cream can irritate your face, creating a negative situation, adds Montclair, NJ dermatologist Jeanine Downie, MD. A check-in with a derm should help you come up with the best overall plan for your skin. And there are some questionable products and tools that dermatologists make a point to avoid. Here are the products they say are simply a waste of money-or worse, could actually could damage your skin.
有時爲了追求潔淨、光滑的皮膚，不塗某些產品和塗某些產品一樣重要。"人們帶來好幾包她們用過的產品，"北卡羅來納州的皮膚病專家布魯克·傑克森醫學博士說道。"但護膚產品卻很少。"塗抹每一種創造奇蹟的新款面霜會刺激你的臉，營造負面環境，新澤西州蒙特克萊爾的皮膚病專家珍寧·唐妮醫學博士補充說。諮詢皮膚病專家能幫助你找到適合自己皮膚的最佳總體方案。皮膚病專家明確表明要避免使用某些可疑的產品和工具。他們說以下的這些產品就是浪費錢--更糟的是，可能損害你的皮膚。
At-home chemical peels
在家就能做的化學脫皮"I NEVER put strong chemical peels on my face at home. Sometimes people buy medical-grade peels online that are too strong for home use. I've seen bad results, such as redness and too much peeling than can lead to long-term scarring and discoloration. They also sometimes cause allergic reactions." -Angela Lamb, MD, Dermatologist, The Mount Sinai Hospital
"在家時，我從來沒有把強效的化學脫皮產品塗到自己臉上。有些人會在線購買醫用級脫皮產品，但它們太強效了，不適合自己在家塗抹。我看到別人用過後帶來的糟糕結果，比如皮膚紅，脫皮太多會導致長期的疤痕和變色。有時候還會導致過敏反應。"--西奈山醫院的皮膚病專家安吉拉·蘭姆醫學博士
Loofahs
絲瓜絡"I stay away from using a loofah or a buf puf on my face. They are too abrasive and can actually irritate your skin. I have underlying acne and eczema and these sponges-which also tend to attract bacteria-can make both conditions worse." -Jeanine Downie, MD, Director of Image Dermatology in Montclair, NJ
"我不用絲瓜絡或buf puf洗臉。這些產品太粗糙了，會刺激你的皮膚。我有痘痘和溼疹，這些海綿產品--往往會招惹細菌--會加劇痘痘和溼疹。"--新澤西蒙特克萊爾Image Dermatology的主任珍寧·唐妮醫學博士Moisturizers with collagen
膠原蛋白保溼霜"Frankly, I believe that the collagen molecule is too large to work as a topical. The active ingredient does not penetrate the skin, so you're just getting an overly expensive moisturizer." -S. Manjula Jegasothy, MD, CEO and Founder of Miami Skin Institute
"坦白說，我認爲膠原蛋白分子太大，在局部使用不會有明顯效果。這一活性成分不能穿透皮膚，所以你只是買了瓶超貴的保溼霜。"--邁阿密皮膚研究所（Miami Skin Institute）的首席執行官兼創始人S. Manjula Jegasothy醫學博士。Abrasive face scrubs
磨砂膏"There is no reason to use abrasive face scrubs, which can be irritating and induce hyperpigmentation. Most people who try them are acne patients and you can't scrub acne away. Your face is being irritated unnecessarily. Instead, I cleanse with a creamy wash using my hands then I use a washcloth to wipe the cleanser off."
"用磨砂膏根本就沒有必要，因爲它刺激性強，可能會引起色素沉着過度。大多數嘗試使用磨砂膏的人都會長痘痘，但痘痘卻沒有磨掉，反而不必要地刺激了臉。我會用手擠點洗面奶洗臉，然後用毛巾擦拭乾淨。"
