FACT OR FICTION—It seems that every year there are hot new skin care actives that promise to revolutionize the industry. But if you look at the products available today, they are not really much different than products from 20 or even 30 years ago. In this talk, we'll look at why that is true. We will review the chemistry of what makes skin care products work, the science supporting efficacy, and the hottest new ingredients. We'll cover the difference between drugs, cosmeceuticals, and cosmetics, and cover how skin care products are formulated and the importance of preservation and safety testing.
