Think you can decode skincare products just by reading ingredient lists? Think again! In this eye-opening episode of the Facially Conscious Podcast, cosmetic chemist Rebecca Gadberry and esthetician Trina Renea reveal 8 crucial things you can't determine from ingredient labels alone—from quality grades and purity standards to ethical sourcing and hidden impurities. You'll discover why that expensive serum might contain the same basic ingredients as drugstore alternatives, learn about the shocking differences between technical-grade and cosmetic-grade ingredients, and find out why even professional chemists can't always tell what's in a product just by reading the label. This episode will completely change how you approach skincare shopping and empower you to ask the right questions, rather than trying to decode every ingredient name.
