Skincare: Know how to choose skincare products
Dr. Shetty says, "One product cannot work wonders for everyone. Each skin type has its own qualities and problems. The environment around you and your age also affect your skin health. So, how can one cream suit all? If you see an expert or someone else speak about a product, it does not mean that it is good for everyone."
"If an expert says that this particular product is great. It means that in the whole category this is a good product with the right combination of ingredients. But it doesn't mean it will suit everyone's skin. Every good product may or may not be good for your skin in particular," she further adds.
