Alcohol in Skincare -What Types are Good and Bad for You

ArianneUpdated on January 16, 2019January 16, 2019

Beauty Quickie: When it comes to alcohol in skincare products, do you know which ones are good or bad for your skin? Yes, not all alcohols are created equal or necessarily bad; even though, oftentimes alcohol becomes like a dirty word when it comes to skincare products.

Well, today we are going to change all of that for you. We are going to give you a comprehensive list of good as well as bad alcohols normally found in skincare items. Additionally, we will briefly you tell you exactly what they are capable of doing to or for your skin.

Alcohol in Skincare -What Types are Good and Bad for You

Do you want the good news or bad news first? Well, let’s get the bad out the way. Bad alcohols unfortunately zap and evaporate moisture from the skin and can irritate it. Yikes. Here is a list of baddies to avoid:

Alcohol
Alcohol Denat
Ethanol
Ethanol Alcohol
Denature Alcohol
Methanol
Benzyl Alcohol
Isopropyl Alcohol
SD Alcohol
SD Alcohol 40

Now for the good. The good alcohols you find in products can bring some benefit to your skin. They are actually “fatty alcohols” that work as emollients that are naturally hydrating and moisturizing. So then, if you could use a little help in the hydration department you will want to look for a product that includes at least one of the following:

Glycol
C12-16
Cetyl Alcohol
Stearyl Alcohol
Lauryl Alcohol
Cetearyl Alcohol
Myristyl Alcohol
Butylene Glycol
Propanediol

There you have it. The good and the bad. As one can see, it is always very important to know what is in your skincare products. Always check the ingredients list on the back to ensure your skin is being treated properly.

Scam on Instagram: Wig Scammers, Fake Ads and Fake Hair Accounts

ArianneUpdated on January 12, 2019January 12, 2019

There is a huge scam on Instagram right now and it involves wigs, fake ads; and fake hair accounts. Have you seen them? Most likely, you have.

These awful folks have been following and spreading their harmful lies for the last few months. Worst part, is that Instagram has done absolutely nothing about it. These scammers are still roaming free looking for their next victim.

However, YOU do not have to be a casualty and get conned out of your coins. All you have to do is be aware of what’s going on; and be sure not to get involved with such people, ads or accounts. What signs should you look for?

Scam on Instagram: Wig Scammers, Fake Ads and Fake Hair Accounts

Influencer Brittanie Evans laid it all out on the table in order to protect her fans as well as other hair enthusiasts. She says,

“Seriously, Instagram! I see so many hair stylist, wig makers; and wig review videos STOLEN and used to scam people out of their money — on Instagram! Every day, I am followed by dozens and dozens of fake hair pages. All with the same photos and stolen pictures.

I have seen ads where they will crop the video and put their fake business name or steal a review video; and say the hair is theirs. I mean, sometimes they don’t even care if the video has another business name on it. They will steal it and advertise its their wig for $20. Then you read the comments and all the women are complaining that they ordered and they received a fake shiny Party City wig.

It’s beyond ridiculous. I report every fake ad and page that I see but there are so many and more with every scroll. These fake pages have even purchased comments and likes to further scam you into thinking they are real. AND if that doesn’t work, they have gone so far to create an account to advertise another “fake” account in the stolen ad video comments. IT”S CRAZY! I am so sick of this. Do something about it, Instagram!”

Scam on Instagram: Wig Scammers, Fake Ads and Fake Hair Accounts (Continued)

As one can see, there is some major foul play going on the Gram. Plus, with lace front wigs and extensions being so trendy, that leaves a lot of women vulnerable to being taken advantage of and suffering a hair “L.”

Nevertheless, as Brittanie stated, while online you have to be very mindful of stolen images, fake users and fake comments. So far these scams are still very prevalent on Instagram so BEWARE. Watch out for yourself and your fellow girlfriend; so that you can keep your cash instead of getting sent some fake trash.
