#Kylie Jenner Is Getting Slammed by Fans Over Kylie Skin Face Scrub Before It Even Launches

Kylie Jenner's new brand, Kylie Skin, is getting backlash from fans before it's even officially launched.
One product in the collection, the Walnut Face Scrub, uses crushed walnut as a physical exfoliant, which many fans claim is too abrasive on the skin and can cause more harm than good.
"Kinda shocked Kylie’s scrub is a walnut scrub. That sounds so 2013 right? Lmao I don’t mean it in a bad way but aren’t those types of scrubs too abrasive for the skin? Don’t they cause like tiny scratches? I feel like I don’t see them anymore," beauty influencer Kathleen Fuentes tweeted.
Many other fans chimed in and agreed with Fuentes' sentiment. "I was talking to a girl in my psychology class who is a licensed esthetician and she was SHOCKED. She’s like 'A manual exfoliant? In 2019?? Sis. Everyone’s using chemical exfoliants! Like what is she thinking??'" someone replied.
Another person tweeted: "Soooo bad for the skin. Please check out @LaBeautyologist !!! NO scrubs, y’all." Someone else said: "I gave up on physical/ scrub exfoliant a long time ago. Acid exfoliators are so much better and they’re not abrasive. There are acid lip exfoliators in the market but they’re mostly Asian products."
According to N.Y.C. dermatologist and [tempo-ecommerce src="https://www.amazon.com/Beauty-Dirty-Skin-Surprising-Science/dp/147897589X" title="The Beauty of Dirty Skin" context="body"] author, Dr. Whitney Bowe, walnut face scrubs won't irritate skin in theory if they're "ground into a fine powder and tested on skin in a clinical trial," but in general, she does not recommend physical exfoliators to her patients.
"Nuts or nut shells can create micro-tears in the skin, damaging the delicate barrier and triggering inflammation which can exacerbate skin conditions like acne, eczema, rosacea or even lead to premature aging," Dr. Bowe says. "One of the biggest skincare mistakes people make is to over-scrub or over-exfoliate their skin."
Instead, she recommends chemical exfoliation, which use ingredients like alpha hydroxy acid (AHAs) or beta hydroxy acid (BHAs) to dissolve away the dead layer of skin. "It's more gentle and controlled exfoliation, especially is you have sensitive skin. Physical scrubs are more prone to error, like people pushing too hard which causes them to overdo it."
However, Jenner claims her Walnut Face Scrub is her secret to a fresh, glowing complexion and on the Kylie Skin Instagram page, she says the walnut powder is ground to a "fine" texture for gentle exfoliation. But details about clinical trials and testing have yet to be released to customers.
"It's really gentle. it is gentle enough to use every day. I recommend two or three times a week. That's how much I use it. Some walnut scrubs are kinda harsh on the skin. This isn't too abrasive," she said. "It really leaves my face feeling super baby soft."

Every Delayed 2020 Movie Without A New Release Date

Several 2020 movies have seen their release dates delayed as a result of the coronavirus pandemic; here's every film that still needs a new one. With theaters closed down and film and TV production shut-down until further notice, Hollywood's 2020 release calendar has been all but  wiped clean on through to the middle of July  (with a few exceptions which will eventually have to move, as we'll discuss later). There's no guarantee theaters will be reopen for business by that point either, in spite of chains like Cinemark saying  they hope to resume showing new movies  that month. The New Mutants ANTLERS RUN THE WOMAN IN THE WINDOW LAST NIGHT IN SOHO SPIRAL: FROM THE BOOK OF SAW GREYHOUND ANTEBELLUM Other Movies On top of all the bigger 2020 movies in need of a new release date after being delayed, there are also smaller indie titles like  Promising Young Woman  and  Saint Maud  (both of which premiered to strong reviews on the film festival cir...

#Skills That Will Be In High Demand In The Future - By Richard Bradson

I’ve always relied on instinct when it comes to calculating risks, putting trust in people and making important business decisions. There are some things that can’t be summed up in a statistic, and this is when you need to use a bit of intuition. Image from Adam Slama On the  Strive Challenge  this year, I had an interesting conversation on the topic with the team, who have all followed incredible careers across many different sectors – from business and science to aerospace engineering and medicine. We were discussing how decisions are becoming more and more data-driven, as technology and artificial intelligence advances. However, as we rely more and more on analytics to make our decisions, we’re losing touch of our human instinct and we’re taking human reasoning out of the equation. We all agreed on the danger this presents and the importance of looking at every decision with a human lens. Creativity, problem solving, reasoning and...

#Yara Virus : The New Mysterious Virus Found In Brazil.

Scientists have discovered a new virus in an artificial lake in Brazil. This mysterious virus found in amoebae has been named “Yaravirus.” This latest discovery comes as the coronavirus from China continues to ravage the world. While the world scrabbles around looking for a cure for the deadly coronavirus, scientists have found another virus. Unlike the former which started in  China,  this new one comes from an artificial lake in  Brazil. Independent  reports that this virus named "Yaravirus" was found in an amoebae. It was named after "Yara" or “Iara,” which means 'mother of waters' - a mythical siren/mermaid figure from Brazilian mythology who would lure sailors underwater. Scientists are saying that this virus is mysterious because it has genes that no one has seen before. Reporting the new discovery in  bioRxiv, a  biological sciences website, the researchers wrote:  “We report the discovery of Yaravirus, a new lineage of amoe...
