The Science Behind 10 Natural Skin Remedies

Thank you to reader Rachel, who passed along a great slideshow from Scientific American (an excellent magazine if you've never checked it out) titled "The Science Behind 10 Natural Skin Remedies: Why They Work—Or Don't."

The piece examines the effectiveness of treatments such as applying cucumber slices to reduce eye puffiness, using fruit acids to renew the skin, and exercising to delay aging. (Spoiler alert: Nearly every natural remedy they scrutinize works. But we already knew that!)
