Not scary, but sunscreen doesn't cause flashback in photos, the presence of the mineral mica does :)

We wake up with morning breath because the bacteria in between our teeth is rotting all night.

I don't think wearing make up to bed ages you, its just not the best thing for your skin, it needs chance to breathe and if it is constantly covered with makeup I won't get to do that. everyone should be taking their make up off at night regardless.

It does age your skin, you're unable to reproduce cells or balance out your skin naturally during sleep because the weight of the makeup prevents the skin From breathing.
This will cause microscopic tears in the skin which overtime become obvious wrinkles.

And I recommend you all read this article http://www.bustle.com/articles/2777-uk-woman-doesn't-wash-her-face-for-a-month-ages-10-years


There was a 20 year old Korean girl that didn't wash her face for 2 years and it doubled the appearance of her skin

And on the SPF thing. It's titanium dioxide and zinc oxide that cause the ghostly cast- titanium dioxide is the natural ingredient in sunscreen, it's added to products to supply some form of sun protectant.

Mica has a naturally light reflecting property so when used it causes a glare and a similar flashback.

Usually anything below SPF 15 should be safe- unless you use an HD setting powder on top then you're back to that cast off look
