The festive season is in full swing in India. I came across a recent report by NDTV covering that people in Ahmedabad are turning to iv drips during Navratri. These drips reportedly contain vitamin C, B-complex, zinc and glutathione and are being used to maintain energy levels and radiant skin for nine consecutive days Garba nights.

I wanted to find out whether these drips can actually deliver what they promise. I came across a review published by Pubmed on uses of glutathione as a skin lightening agent.

Beauty rumours spread like wildfire, this has always been the case. I’m curious about who thought of this business model?😅

What??? Who even comes with these so called beauty trends, why looks were so concerned in a place where people can enjoy being themselves.
