But do keep in mind, sunscreen is regulated in this country as a drug because it does prevent disease and it claims to do so. So sunscreen is a great choice, and I believe everybody should be using it every single day of the year.
Again, as a drug, sunscreen is sunscreen, but to get the actual SPF on the label, it requires that the user applies enough of it.

So these ingredients are either functional ingredients, for example, those humectants and occlusives I told you about, the ingredients that actually create a good moisturizer. These ingredients are also aesthetic.

Nobody would be happy if they poured out a cream and it went into your hand like water. So there are ingredients that add thickness and color, and we'll call those aesthetic ingredients. And then there are ingredients that I call marketing tool ingredients. Now remember, this is a cosmetic that's not really intended to change anything, but they do make claims like anti-aging.

So if you're a manufacturer, you have to add a minuscule amount of some ingredient that has to be, if I was to take chromatography and make sure that there's actually this ingredient in there, they have to have enough that it could be identifiable if it's tested.

And that satisfies the claim on the front panel, which, as I told you, is a lot of marketing. Now, you asked the question, does it have any benefit whatsoever? I've never seen any permanent benefit. And again, which is consistent with the fact this is a cosmetic.

It has an effect. But when it's put on the skin, the ability for retinol to actually penetrate 20 layers of dead tissue, which is what the top 20 layers of your skin are, the barrier,
