Angela Caglia (video, Nov 19, 2023) advises viewers to critically evaluate skincare marketing and to read ingredient labels—particularly the first five listed ingredients—as these determine a product’s composition. She warns that plant-derived “stem cell” claims (e.g., apple or orchid stem cells) are marketing-forward and contrasts them with human mesenchymal stem cell–derived proteins (which she describes as peptide-rich, DNA-free, and used in her Sal Forte serum).

You know. I know it's really overwhelming. You're told by so many founders how incredible their serum is. I listen too and a lot of it's bs. The actual ingredient label tells you everything you need to know. Remember that it's always the first five ingredients that are the most of any skincare product. And also what products are they like what skincare is working, what ingredients are working? If they're saying it's a stem cell, well dig a little deeper. Oh it's an apple stem cell. Oh it's an orchid stem cell. Well those are great. If you're an apple or an orchid it's not really going to do much for your skin in a way that the human mesenchymal stem cell which is the OG of Peptides, the original creator, the factory that creates everything that fixes your skin is incorporated in our serum. It's a patented protein rich blend, DNA free and that's why the Sal Forte serum is so magical and works.
