Is This Why Skin Creams Don't Work?

Is This Mutton on the 500 Dalton Rule. Are big brands knowingly peddling skincare with ingredients that don't penetrate below the surface of our skin?


Dear friends. Have beauty brands been deceiving us for years with products containing ingredients that don't penetrate the skin? 

It's all to do with a unit of measurement called a Dalton. It's a unit of mass used to measure the size of molecules. 

What's significant about it is that some small beauty brands are claiming that research from Harvard University suggests commercial skincare products with "miracle" ingredients are actually biophysically too large to do the heavy lifting they are marketed for.
