5 Popular Beauty Hacks You Should Never Try

A beauty blogger once claimed that using deodorant on the T-zone area before putting on makeup helped reduce oiliness and sweat. But just because it worked on one person doesn't mean it will on you. In fact, dermatologists have already disputed this famous beauty hack.

Sure, it may sound convincing — after all, your deodorant or antiperspirant keeps underarms from sweating, so why won't it work on your face? Well, for one, deodorants are often made with pore-clogging ingredients such as magnesium and parabens — and no one wants clogged pores. Besides, if you have super oily skin, there are plenty of amazing oil-control products that will (safely) keep shine at bay.
