November is Healthy Skin Month✨ The AAD Offers Guidance to Navigate Social Media Trends

The American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) launched the first National Healthy Skin Month in November 1997. This November the AAD is emphasizing the importance of safe and effective skincare practices✅  In this article, they discuss social media skincare trends. Here is a quick summary.

• The AAD discusses multiple popular social media skincare trends including "Russian manicures," the "glass skin" trend, and “biotin for hair loss”💫

• The "Russian manicure"💅🏼 is a dry manicure (without soaking)  that involves aggressive cuticle removal.  Dermatologists are concerned about this viral trend since disrupting the cuticle significantly increases the risk of infection and nail damage❌

• The "glass skin" trend aims for poreless, smooth skin.  Dermatologists weigh in that this trend may be unrealistic and pursuit of glass skin with aggressive exfoliation and overloading on skincare products could lead to skin irritation and dryness😣

• The AAD also discusses biotin, also known as vitamin B7, a popular supplement online that is often used to address hair loss💊

• The AAD reports that, although popular, biotin has only been shown to be useful in people with biotin deficiency.  Dermatologists add that biotin supplements may be helpful for individuals with confirmed biotin deficiencies, but seeing a dermatologist is most important to identify the root cause of hair loss🔍

• As November's Healthy Skin Month approaches, the AAD urges people to prioritize safe and effective skincare practices and consult with a dermatologist for personalized advice👩🏽‍⚕️
