Know the scary truth behind the caveman skincare routine that everyone's talking about
(Image Credits: Pinterest) Building a good skincare routine isn't just about picking the right products, it's also about using them in the right order and at the right time. Everyone's skin is different, so it's important to choose ingredients that actually work for your skin type. But have you ever heard of a skincare routine that requires zero products, zero applications? Sounds crazy, right? But there's actually a growing trend that's just that: no soap, no cream, no moisturizer, no serum, absolutely nothing on your skin. It's called the 'caveman skincare routine,' and it's been stirring up quite a buzz online. (Image Credits: Pinterest) In today's world of viral trends, the caveman routine has become the latest talk of the town, all thanks to a 22-year-old TikTok creator named Zakher. After trying tons of products that didn't help, and even dealing with skin picking, inflammation, and acne, she decided to hit the reset button by putting nothing on her skin at all. No washing, no cleansing, just bare skin. Top 10 tips for achieving acne-free clear skin The idea? To let the skin heal itself, just like our Stone Age ancestors supposedly did. For a couple of weeks, Zakher stuck to this routine, but her skin got flaky and textured, so she gave up. Then, after doing some research, she tried it again and noticed some improvements. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 中年以降であれば、このゲームは必須です。 BuzzDaily Winners ゲームをプレイ Undo Sounds intriguing, but dermatologists aren't convinced Experts warn that this 'no skincare' approach is a red flag.

Bengaluru woman facing workplace harassment says she quit to ‘save my sanity'
A Bengaluru-based woman says she quit her job to save her sanity after months of facing mental harassment in the workplace. The woman asked for advice on rebuilding her career in a Reddit post shared earlier this week. A Bengaluru woman says she quit her job to protect her mental health (Representational image) 'Hey folks, I'm a 25-year-old female based in Bangalore. I recently put in my papers after months of going through mental harassment at work,' she wrote. The woman explained that she worked as a Product Experience Manager at a 'major startup' where she faced harassment so severe that she would have panic attacks before stepping into the office building. She also claimed that most of her team resigned due to the harassment, even though she tried to hang on for as long as possible. Eventually, however, the Bengaluru-based professional realised that she needed to put her mental health first. She therefore quit her job and is now trying to find a new one. In her post titled 'Quit to save my sanity,' the woman wrote: 'Right now, I've given myself about 4 months to find a new role, and I'm looking for opportunities in customer experience, operations or product consulting roles preferably something remote or hybrid.' A conversation on mental health The post has opened a conversation on mental health and toxic workplaces. Some applauded the employee for putting her mental health first, while others shared their own experiences. 'Same thing happened to me. I suffered for 5 straight months with severe food and sleep deprivation. Finally quit in the 6th month with immediate effect. Taking time off afterward honestly felt like heaven. It was tough explaining why I left when looking for another role — not everyone understands how bad toxic workplaces can be, especially those who haven't experienced it themselves,' wrote one person in the comments section. 'Looks like bad work culture is a norm in Indian startups. Founders burning investor money and expecting 1 person to do 3 people's work to compensate for that,' another said.
