you. i m carol alt. does your skin look great? does it look ten years younger like all those anti-aging commercials say it should? what about when you look in the mirror, are you happy with what you see? do you think your skin care products are working? if not, maybe it s not you. maybe it s what s in the skin care that is actually working against you. the fda does not police the skin care industry. in fact, no one does. and the companies bend the truth when it comes to representing their skin care. labels like all natural and organic have been used and abused to no consequence. and if you think you haven t been one of those fooled, check your organic labels again. today i d like to teach you just how to be a little smarter than your sneaky label. i asked my friend to come on the show and talk about skin care. he s got kind of an unusual story as how he became so expert. hi, phil. thanks for joining me today. carol, thanks for having me. you and i worked together at raw essentials
