Is there a rational argument for Dermatology?

No, they just made it up to sell creams and stuff.

> The dollar stores in Canada likely differ from where you are. Most of them sell basically the same creams and serums (with vitamins, herbs, niacinamide, retinol or collagen), but at slightly different prices. I figure if it does something great, if not no big deal. The ingredient list and look of the product often seem to be surprisingly similar, but I am not claiming it is as good or does much.

Ice Cream just sits there and melts in the hot sun. It’s rather nice anyway.

It’s not an actual thread title here, but on the same theme, I just misread a headline in my city’s email newsletter as “Summer Day Camps Keep Kids and Teens Busty and Engaged”. It actually said “Busy”. 😊
