Whenever I hear of a new face cream I always get a bit thrilled, what new expensiveness can I slather on my face to ease the ravages of time? The ultra-pricey creams tend to often include ultramodern packaging and rare extracts I have never heard of but the Zelens cream comes in a simple green glass jar and has an active ingredient Fullerene C-60, an anti-oxidant for which a team of scientists received a Nobel Prize for chemistry in 1997.
