Anti Aging Skin Care : "Pharmaceutical" Cosmetics

Have you ever heard the new buzz term "cosmeceuticals"?
This nifty term refers to the fusion of two areas, one which cultivates necessary medications which control our bodily processes internally, and the other, which manipulates our body from the outside, cosmetically improving our appearance.

Although they have been united in this new genre of cosmetics, the two are very different when it comes to government and advisory board regulation.
Pharmaceuticals, at least in the US currently, are heavily regulated by the organization known as the FDA, while cosmetics are not government regulated.
