Some skin care product hype might well be a little bit of a marketing ploy to make us part with our money. Such as expensive body creams that promise to eradicate stretch marks and cellulite. But others most certainly aren’t. Perhaps the most basic is the topic of this article (don’t you love it when a plan comes together?).
