Don’t Waste Money on Expensive Cleansers—Spend It on Moisturizers, Sunscreens, and Antiaging Products Instead
Pricey skin-care lines usually include pricey cleansers, but the truth is some of the best cleansers I know are sold on drugstore shelves, so look there first. This is the advice I give to all my patients, even to the celebrities whose faces you see on magazine covers, who can certainly afford really, really expensive cleansers. “You’re just washing money down the drain,” I tell them. It isn’t worth it to spend a lot of money on cleansers. Believe me, you can put your money to better use.
