    Dr. Farber recommends looking for "hydrating ingredients like glycerin and hyaluronic acid." She suggests Kerastase Bain Satin Hydrating Shampoo and Oribe Gold Lust Repair & Restore Shampoo for their nourishing properties. Avoid sulfates to prevent stripping hair of moisture.
  • Exploring Botox Alternatives: Expert Tips for Wrinkle Reduction
    Dr. Farber explains, "No topical product matches Botox's effects." Retinoids and peptide serums like SkinCeuticals P-Tiox can help reduce wrinkles. However, sunscreen remains the top anti-aging tool. For those hesitant about Botox, these alternatives offer some benefits, though not as deeply effective as injections.
