- One in three adults experiment with DIY skincare regimes using household items, though 18 per cent of these experienced a negative reaction, according to OnePoll research.
- The study found three in 10 use DIY hacks for natural ingredients, 19 per cent to avoid harsh chemicals, and 21 per cent because they are cheaper than store-bought products.
- Millennials spend £205 annually on skincare—the highest of any generation—compared to £80 for Boomers, while 56 per cent of respondents have experienced skin conditions like eczema or acne.
