I have a major pet peeve - retail products that are falsely advertised. One major category where I have found rampant abuse is in the cosmetic and skin care industry. A few inexpensive cosmetic purchases that turn bad may be acceptable, but I for one strongly resent expensive skin care products that don't even come close to living up to their claims. Misrepresentation is one thing - out and out lies is something else altogether.
Of course not every skin care product can be expected to work for everyone. Some work for certain skin textures, others are geared for a specific type of skin (oily, dry, combination, etc). Still others are more successful on skin that hasn't already begun to age. But even given these caveats, some products fail to meet the hype in spectacular fashion, and we'll have a look at a few of these now.
Note: all these products have been tested by me personally and by members of my family, and I have cross-referenced our results with multiple reviews from all over the net that express the same opinion.
