If you're constantly debating whether you should splurge or save when it comes to skin care, check out this must-read. My colleague Natasha Singer wrote this article for the New York Times back in fall 2005 when both La Mer and Kanebo were coming out with $1,000-plus topicals, but I think the basic tenets hold true--although, I do think that everyone's skin is different. If you believe you're seeing better results from your gajillion-dollar product, then cool. Same goes for your drugstore brand. Just keep in mind that the results are appearance-based only, not necessarily skin deep. What do you guys think about the bazillion-dollar creams out there? Which ones do you think are worth it?
