We all want to feel comfortable in our own skin, and taking care of our skin is one way we can do that! We all want to prevent our skin from aging, and we long for beautiful, healthy, glowing skin. So, how do we achieve that? On this episode of The SavvyCast, Dr. Pearce from Reveal Beauty joins me on the podcast for the 3rd time to discuss all things skincare. We discuss how to take care of your skin on a daily basis, what products to use, how to remove sun and age spots, and the best skincare treatments and procedures.
