Hi, I'm Valerie, and you're listening to the Beauty Brains.

Welcome to the Beauty Brains, a show where real cosmetic chemists, answer your beauty

product questions and give you an insider's look at the cosmetic industry.

This is episode 355, and it's a big one.

I'm your host Valerie George and with me today is Perry Romanowski.

Hi Perry.

Hello Valerie, great to see you.

Good to see you. I almost called you Pury which is appropriate because of the kittens but we'll talk about that in a minute. On today's show we're going to cover some great questions including does freezing hair cause damage?

Does skin get immune to the benefits of skin care products?

What do we think of coconut oil for hair?

Are collagen supplements for skin a myth?

What are the key ingredients in shampoos like Nioxin

that make hair look more full?

And what makes Currel Hydrot therapy?

What skin moisturizer a water-activated moisturizer?

I told you it's a lot of questions today. I know six questions whoa. But that

a nane chit chat. So I think the first question we have today is a great one because it's

wintertime where we are in the

northern hemisphere. Yeah and when we say winter at least here in Chicago you know when I

got back from my trip to Antigua it was like five degrees here in Chicago.

You deserve it.

And I didn't bring any gloves there.
