Hi, I'm Perry, and you're listening to the beauty brains a show where real cosmetic

chemists answer your beauty questions and give you an insiders look at

the beauty product industry. This is episode 199.

I'm your host Perry Romanowski and joining me today is my co-host Valerie George.

Hello Valerie.

Hi Perry. All the way from Arizona. All the way from Phoenix area is Arizona.

Excellent. Well Valerie we got a great show today you know what we're going to talk about?

Tell us what are we going to have on the air today?

Ah, today we're going to talk about whether you should take college and supplements,

whether there's a difference between men and women's hair care,

whether tea tree oil is as effective as benzoyal peroxide for acne,

and can vitamin C change color?

But first, before we get into the regular show, Valerie, why don't you tell us how you're doing?

I'm okay.

As we mentioned, I'm in Phoenix-ish, Arizona.

It's very dry out here. I thought California was dry, but man, it is dry out here.

But it's a hot dry, right?

Yeah, definitely hot. It's very warm and I had to go out into the desert to my location and I thought, well, I'd rowed down the windows. I'm in the wilderness and it just smelled like a campfire the whole ride so.

Oh they got fires out there too?

Well I couldn't see anything but maybe people are burning wood and their stoves.

I don't know it's about 75 degrees outside.

Oh my how does that affect your skin at all? Any anything you notice there?
