3 Untold Myths Behind 2024 Skincare Trends
As we step into 2025, the skincare world is buzzing with new trends, promising innovative solutions and glowing results. From skinimalism to tech-integrated skincare, these trends are reshaping how we care for our skin. However, amidst the excitement, misconceptions can arise. Let’s uncover three untold myths within these popular skincare trends—and how you can make more informed choices.
Skincare Trends of 2024
This year’s skincare landscape has been all about simplicity, technology, and barrier care. Here are the top trends dominating the industry:
- Skinimalism: A minimalist approach that focuses on fewer, multifunctional products for streamlined routines.
- Neurocosmetics: Products designed to support mental well-being by influencing the skin’s nervous system.
- Skin Barrier Health: Prioritizing hydration and protecting the skin’s natural defense system.
- Tech-Integrated Skincare: Devices like LED masks and microcurrent tools are now staples in home routines.
- Ingredient-Centric Products: Star ingredients like niacinamide, peptides, and hyaluronic acid continue to shine.
While these trends are exciting, they’ve also given rise to a few myths. Let’s separate fact from fiction.
Myth 1: Natural Ingredients Are Always Better for Your Skin
“Natural” has become synonymous with “safe,” but the reality is more nuanced. While natural ingredients can offer incredible benefits, some may irritate sensitive skin or trigger allergic reactions. For instance:
- Tea Tree Oil and lavender oil can cause redness or dermatitis in some individuals.
- Citrus oils, like lemon or bergamot, may lead to photosensitivity, increasing the risk of sun damage.
At Veriphy Skincare, we understand the allure of natural ingredients, which is why we use them thoughtfully. All our products are clinically tested for safety and efficacy. Our commitment ensures that nature’s best works harmoniously with your skin, delivering results without the risk.
Myth 2: Oily Skin Doesn’t Need Moisturizer
It’s a common belief that skipping moisturizer helps manage oily skin. However, this can lead to dehydration, prompting the skin to overproduce oil as a protective response. The key is to choose the right product:
- Look for lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturizers to balance oil levels without clogging pores.
The Solution: Self Absorbed Facial Moisturizer
Veriphy’s Self Absorbed Facial Moisturizer is packed with plant-based glycogen (PhytoSpherix®) and hyaluronic acid to deeply hydrate without feeling heavy. It balances your skin’s moisture levels while leaving it refreshed and radiant—perfect for oily skin types seeking hydration without shine.
Myth 3: Drinking More Water Alone Hydrates Your Skin
While staying hydrated is important for overall health, drinking water alone won’t resolve skin dryness. Proper hydration requires a healthy skin barrier and topical products with humectants and emollients to lock in moisture.
The Solution: Power Trip Facial Serum + Self Absorbed Facial Moisturizer + 20/20 Eye Cream
For effective hydration, pair Veriphy’s Power Trip Facial Serum, which exfoliates and brightens with lactic acid and fruit AHAs, with the Self Absorbed Facial Moisturizer to lock in moisture. Finish with the award-winning 20/20 Eye Cream to hydrate and smooth the delicate eye area. Together, these products create a complete hydration routine that ensures your skin stays supple and radiant. Get them in bundle with Core Trio Set.
