It's not easy being smart...no really, it's not. Things that seem pretty common sense to me give other folks a hard time. Lets take, for example, beer; lots of people drink beer, right? And everyone drinks the same kind...OK so at this point you're scratching your head saying what the hell does this have to do with skincare? It does, I swear, I'm just taking the long scenic route to get there. As you know I belong to a couple of message boards that discuss skincare products, clothes, etc., and without fail on one of these boards on a daily basis someone talks about how high end skincare is a waste of money. The argument here is that the ingredients list is exactly the same between a $5 product and a $195 product so they must be the same product. Hence my beer analysis above. Beer, if you broke it down to ingredients, is basically the same. So if you buy into the theory that matching ingredient lists equal matching products then everyone drinks the same beer because there isn't any difference...right? Hell no, not right. Lets take two beers in different price ranges, on the cheap end you got your Natural light(known the world over as Natty light)on the other end of the spectrum you have a Heineken. Do they taste the same? No, you know why? Ingredients. Just because it lists the same ingredients doesn't mean that each company uses the same quality or quantity of said ingredients. Same with skincare, just because they match doesn't make them the same product. So drink your Natty Light and keep buying your cheapo $5night cream, thinking your sticking it to the man. When you finally figure out that $5 cream isn't doing jack for your skin you can reach me at (615)***-**** and I'll educate you on the importance of quality. Estheticians Unite!!
