Retinol is one of the most popular anti-aging skincare ingredients, but it’s also one of the trickiest when it comes to choosing a product, and one of the ones where looking at the percentage and analysing the INCI list doesn’t quite cut it. There’s a common perception that drugstore skincare is ineffective, and only …
This video is sponsored by Foreo. Microcurrent devices are handheld electronic gadgets that have two metal spheres on them.
