Could you be aging your skin without knowing it? Dermatologists explain the biggest mistakes women make, and how to correct them.

What’s tried and true? Alpha hydroxy acids, retinoids, and peptides are great for fine lines and wrinkles. Salicylic acid works for acne, green tea calms redness, and vitamin K helps with dark undereye circles. READ THE REST HERE!
