With new methods for makeup application being introduced almost daily, it can be hard to decipher what’s worth trying and what is a total waste of time. And with this quick proliferation of trends, there’s always that age old question: is the way mom taught us to apply makeup really the best way? From which order we use concealer and foundation in to how we apply fragrance, the most common way of executing these beauty staples is also often a beauty blunder. Who knew that conditioner works better before shampoo? Not us.
So, to ease the confusion (and possible embarrassment) we’ve compiled the top 5 beauty mistakes that everyone is making---and what you can do to fix them.
#1: Using shampoo before conditioner Using conditioner first will add nourishment to the hair without weighing it down, which is especially useful for fine hair. But it’s also great for other hair types as well, since it promotes a longer lasting blow dry and primes the hair before cleansing, so the shampoo distributes evenly. The Kérastase Résistance Thérapiste collection are formulated especially for this method, and focus on renewing damaged strands.
