Question of the Week: In your opinion, what’s the most overrated beauty product of all time? I could name a few things...the Clarisonic (research has shown it's as great as a good washcloth), Ionic technology in hairdryers (It works in things that touch your hair directly. Not so much in things that don't.) However, there is one thing I won't buy. Ever. And that is any skincare with unstable ingredients (vitamin C, retinoids especially) that come in a jar. Light, fingers and whatever muck happens to be on your fingers can destroy the potency of skincare in a flash. Buy it only if it comes in a pump or other airless dispenser!

I love my Clarisonic, it feels great, but I only use it in the shower. I have just been introduced to the idea of non-jar packaging through Paula's Choice. It is incredible how many great ingredients are tainted by packaging! I just read an article in a popular magazine about using an Ionic hair dryer to reduce frizz. For me, the most over-rated products have been those claiming to reduce pore size. Ha!
