Would botanical stem cells work on humans?
No, no and no. It’s the stupidest thing I’ve heard in a long time. Botanical stem cells would do nothing to protect human skin, and neither would human stem cells or any type of stem cells if applied directly on to the skin. It’ll be even more useful than your average anti aging cream, and you’d be better off just smearing some random plants on you face. At least then you wouldn’t have to pay anything.
