Here are five beauty myths that are ruining your skin 

1. Pimples are caused due to dirty skin: No! Pimples are caused due to multiple factors such as oily skin, hormonal reasons, genetics or some skincare products. 

2. Wash your face with hot water: This is also a myth. You should wash your face with either cold or lukewarm water. 

3. Sunscreen isn't required on cloudy days: A sunscreen is a must while you step out of the house, even on cloudy days. UV rays can penetrate through clouds, affecting your skin health. 

4. Only natural products are the best: This is also a myth. While natural products might be comparatively better, you should choose what suits your skin. 

5. Exfoliate everyday: You do not need to exfoliate your skin everyday as it will snatch away the natural moisture of your skin.
