Have you ever wondered how celebrities always look great all the time? Ever thought they might have a secret formula?
Well, celebrities such as Gisele Bundchen claims that she does not put sunscreen on her skin because she thinks it is poison as it contains synthetic materials. Australia model, Miranda Kerr wrote on her website that she takes four tablespoon of coconut oil daily in her salads, tea and in any meals. She believes that it keeps her hydrated. The famous sister of the duchess of Cambridge, Pippa Middleton rinses her hair in cold water believing that it closes up pores.
All these "secret formula" by celebrities are proven to be nonsense by the scientists from Sense About Science. This organisation is devoted to proving claims and providing evidence to an average citizen around the world.
Scientists and doctors have proven some beauty advice wrong from celebrities such as Gisele Bundchen's claim about sunscreen, Miranda Kerr's coconut oil theory and Pippa Middleton's hair formula.
Gisele's "poison in sunscreen" claim is broken by pharmaceutical scientist Gary Moss. He said that in our everyday life, there is a wide variety of synthetic materials. Hence, synthetic does not mean a bad thing. Natural materials does not also mean safe or beneficial.
As for Pippa Middleton's hair formula, beauty and grooming senior scientist Dr. Frauke Neuser states that hair does not have pores, hence rinsing it with hot or cold water does not make a difference.
The moral of the story? Don't take advice from people who is experts of modeling, acting and posing in front of the cameras. Take beauty advice from people who are experts at health and beauty. They are more reliable and trustworthy comparing to people who do not know what they are talking about.
