Abstracts (summaries of studies) are generally free for the public to access, and the full text of the published papers generally cost less than $50, though many are free to access if you are a member of a university or scientific organization.Although scientists are not typically regarded as being sensationalist, it is important to keep in mind that scientists spend months or years applying for grants and writing papers that must sum up their experiments and results in ways that others want not only to read, but to fund—sometimes with millions of dollars. While great scientists are able to do this without audacious or exaggerated claims in the titles of their publications, not all scientists are great, and occasionally the truth gets stretched or sensationalized. Fully educated skin care consumers must be aware of this.
