In a world of numerous DIY beauty hacks, it’s always fun trying them by sitting at home without spending much from our pockets. But this doesn’t call for applying or trying any product on your face. Just because something is okay for your hair, skin, hands and legs, this doesn’t mean it will be good for your face too.

The skin on your face is thinner compared with the other parts of your body. Well, all body lotions contain more fragrances than facial moisturizers that can easily lead to allergic reactions.
Make sure to use oil free and fragrance free facial moisturizer in order to avoid any kind of allergy or break outs.
2. Hair Spray

Spraying hair spray on your face can help you to set up your makeup, but it should never be applied on your face. Because it contains lacquers and alcohol that make your skin dry and appears it older.
Additionally, hair spray contains repellents that could irritate your skin and results in red patches and bumps on your face.
3. Nail Polish

Never apply nail polish on your face to give it brighter look to attend a party. Nail polish only belongs to your nails. It has acrylic molecules that make your skin dry easily and pull the moisture from your skin.
4. Sugar

Even though it’s fine in using sugar in quick DIY scrubs and for other parts of your body, but using this ingredient on your skin will scratch and abrade the skin.
Try to avoid products with hard shaped particles as they cause microscopic tears in the skin and lead to breakouts.
