Question

I'm a 13-year-old and I'm thinking about using Garnier men's face wash, specifically the Acne Fight one. Is it safe for someone my age to use, or are there any possible side effects I should be aware of?

Question

I've been using this rejuglow vitamin C serum for the last couple of months, and it really helped my skin glow. But out of nowhere, in the past 10 days, I'm noticing that my skin looks a bit brownish. I don't spend a lot of time in the sun, so I'm puzzled about what could be causing this change. Any ideas?

Question

I'm dealing with some pretty significant hair fall and I'm really hoping to put a stop to it and get my hair to be thick and dense again. I've heard about treatments like Minoxidil and Mesotherapy and I'm curious about the average cost for these. Also, once I start treatment, how long can I expect the effects to last?
