Tips for Buying Beauty Products
Dermatologist Patricia K. Farris, MD, FAAD, clinical associate professor of dermatology at Tulane University School of Medicine in New Orleans, offer these tips when buying beauty products:
- Talk to your dermatologist about the best options for your skin care needs.
- Trust your instincts. If it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is.
- Ask yourself what the product claims to do and what kinds of studies have been performed.
- Stick with products and brands that you know to be reputable. Well-known manufacturers have more money behind their active ingredients and product testing.
- Beware of Web site claims, as many are biased even if they say they are objective.
- For day, use products containing anti-oxidants, as they have sun-protection properties. At night, use products containing retinoids, peptides or growth factors for their repair properties.
For more information on aging skin, go to the “AgingSkinNet” section of www.skincarephysicians.com, a Web site developed by dermatologists that provides patients with up-to-date information on the treatment and management of disorders of the skin, hair and nails.
