Bionic Tip: Don’t waste your skincare products

Did you know that most women use 30 to 40% more skincare product than they need? So instead of using a pea size of your face serum, most of us are using about a pea & a half. It doesn’t sound like much, but with the cost of some serums, you’re getting 30-40% fewer doses [...]
