I've never used the Perricone splash, but I did once try a sample of Perricone hand cream when I was wandering around Nordstrom. The helpful saleslady told me it had DNA in it to help the skin regenerate, or something like that. Which got me thinking, where'd they get the DNA? From people? If so, how and from whom? From animals? If so, would we be risking a situation like "The Fly"? (Did any of you lawyers out there read the "hairy hand" case in law school?) In other words, a monstrously stupid claim for a monstrously expensive product. That's about all I needed to know about Perricone.
