Skincare Myths Debunked: Separating Fact from Fiction
Navigating the world of skincare can be tricky, especially when myths spread confusion. Let’s set the record straight and highlight how flânerie products can support your journey to healthier skin.
-
Myth 1: Oily Skin Doesn’t Need Moisturiser
- Fact: Many believe that oily skin doesn’t require moisturiser, but the opposite is true. Without hydration, your skin may overcompensate by producing even more oil, leading to breakouts and clogged pores. The key is to choose a lightweight, non-comedogenic formula that hydrates without feeling heavy.
- Solution: Try this flânerie’s Antioxidising Day Moisturiser SPF 20, which provides essential hydration while protecting against UV rays. Its breathable texture ensures a matte, shine-free finish perfect for oily or combination skin types.

Myth 2: You Don’t Need Sunscreen Indoors
- Fact: Many people skip sunscreen when staying indoors, but UVA rays can penetrate windows, leading to premature ageing and skin damage. Daily SPF is a non-negotiable part of any skincare routine, no matter where you are.
- Solution: Protect your skin with flânerie’s Detoxifying Day Moisturiser SPF 15. This multitasking product not only shields your skin from harmful UV rays but also hydrates and detoxifies, leaving it refreshed and protected throughout the day.

Myth 3: Anti-Ageing Products Are Only for Mature Skin
- Fact: Anti-ageing isn’t just for those with visible wrinkles. Starting preventative care in your mid-20s or 30s helps maintain skin elasticity and slows down the formation of fine lines and wrinkles. Collagen production naturally decreases with age, so earlier support makes a big difference.
- Solution: Incorporate flânerie’s Invigorating Mask into your routine. Enriched with collagen, it revitalises tired skin, boosts hydration, and enhances elasticity, giving your complexion a firmer and youthful glow.

Myth 4: Exfoliating Daily is Necessary for Clear Skin
- Fact: Over-exfoliation can harm your skin’s barrier, causing sensitivity, dryness, and irritation. Instead, exfoliate 2-3 times a week depending on your skin type. Gentle, effective exfoliation removes dead cells while preserving your skin’s health.
- Solution: Use flânerie’s Pore Refining Exfoliator twice a week to reveal radiant skin. Its gentle formula is enriched with hydrating agents to avoid over-drying while refining your complexion.
