Pharmacy Counter Secrets & Treating Your Neck Like Your Face

Time to decode the confusing world of skincare acids! Leigh & Kelly are breaking down azelaic acid - the ingredient that's suddenly everywhere and explaining why it's perfect for rosacea sufferers who can't handle retinol.

Then they're tackling the dreaded neck situation! How do you deal with lines and crepey skin that seems to appear overnight?
