Have you heard that skincare products can become addictive, and it's necessary to switch brands regularly?

When it comes to skincare, we often hear people say: "Skincare products can create dependency. When you're young, you shouldn't use expensive or complex skincare products, or else you won't have anything left when you're older," or "Skincare products can be addictive; they work well at first, but once you stop using them, your skin reverts to its original state." Do our skin really become dependent on skincare products? Do skincare products develop resistance? If your skin is dry, choosing a moisturizing skincare product can alleviate the dryness over time. If the product is reliable, you'll notice an improvement in dryness, with your skin feeling more hydrated and supple. In that case, the moisturizing product would be considered effective. Feeling the effectiveness naturally leads to continued use. However, over time, the effects may seem less noticeable, making it appear ineffective. Does this mean that the same skincare product becomes ineffective after continuous use? Not necessarily! Skin improvement has a peak, and eventually, it stabilizes. Once it enters a stable period, you may not see significant changes. But does that mean it's "ineffective"? That's a misconception. After using a product for more than three months, the skin gradually stabilizes. Our perception may not be as acute as before. So, what's more important is consistency. When our skin doesn't show any issues, we tend to feel that the product is "ineffective." However, some active ingredients in skincare products, especially those high-concentration "potent" products, do indeed become "ineffective" after prolonged use. This is because some active ingredients develop a form of resistance, similar to drug resistance. The most common example in skincare products is derivatives of vitamin A. Long-term use is not recommended; after continuous use for over 60 days, the effectiveness decreases, or it may even stop working altogether. However, the manufacturers of these products usually don't provide much information about this. Another example is high-concentration fruit acids. They may show stunning results in the short term. However, over time, the effects diminish because the exfoliating effect only removes dead skin cells, making the skin appear brighter and smoother. These are some common questions about skincare product dependency found online.
