I'm a little worried because I have two cans of Volini spray that expired in May 2020, but I've never even opened them. Do you think it might still be safe to use them, or is that not a good idea? I spent a pretty penny on these, so I'm hesitant to just throw them away. Can you offer any advice or is there any leeway with using products past their expiration like this?

Using expired Volini spray (May 2020) is not recommended, as its potency, safety, and efficacy may be compromised, potentially leading to reduced effectiveness or adverse reactions; it's best to err on the side of caution and discard the expired product, even if unopened.

I'm really worried about my friend. She struggles a lot with body heat, and it seems to be causing her to break out in pimples not just on her face, but on other parts of her body too. I think her diet isn't the healthiest, and she's always on the go because of her hectic travel schedule for work. What do you think would be the best way to help manage her body heat?

To control body heat and reduce pimples caused by it, stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day. Consume cooling foods such as cucumber, watermelon, and mint. Avoid spicy and oily foods that can increase body heat. Practice stress-reducing activities like yoga or meditation to help manage the hectic travel schedule. Use a gentle cleanser and apply a topical acne treatment like benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid for the pimples. For additional help, she can take Tab. AcneStar (Benzoyl Peroxide) 2.5% gel, apply a thin layer on the affected areas once daily in the evening after washing the face.

I've got a wheatish sensitive combination skin type and I'm curious about improving my skin tone. I've tried the Dermadew Aloe lotion at night as per my dermatologist's suggestion, but I didn't really see any noticeable changes. I recently found out about Dermadew Glow cream and I'm wondering if it's safe for my skin and if it might help me achieve a clearer, more even complexion. Would love to know your thoughts!

Dermadew glo is advised, if any side-effects dermat opinion is advsed to the patient.
