Most people have the idea that having clear and healthy skin costs a fortune. But, this is a misleading concept used for marketing skin care products and treatments. You may use the most expensive skin care products money can buy, but these can’t guarantee a blemish-free and clear complexion. Why?

Lack of moisture can make your skin lose its elasticity and suppleness. This can lead to a condition known as elderly itch.
