    Do You Really Need Every Trending Ingredient In Your Skincare?

    Peptides, azelaic acid, PDRN, NAD+... They all sound incredible, but do they live up to the hype? This week we break down 10 of the buzziest skincare ingredients: what they claim to do, what the research actually shows, and which ones deserve a spot in your routine (and which can stay on your algorithm). Plus, our MVPs: Bettina has found a hack to stretch out the time between salon appointments, and Carli has found one to stretch out the time between hair washes.  ELEFFECT The Tan Dazzle Dry Mini Starter Kit 1000 Hour Eyelash & Brow Dye Kit Jasmine perfumes Le Labo Jasmin 17 Grandiflora MADAGASCAN JASMINE EAU DE PARFUM Mi Miel Absolute Jasmine MVPs Hairification H24 Complex DryWash Strengthen & Repair Dry Shampoo Coconut Dream evo Fabuloso Cool Brown Colour Depositing Conditioner K18 AirWash Dry Shampoo KMS Conscious Style Cleansing Mist 1.

    Is Your Haircare Worth the Money or Does it Just Sound Good?

    Have you ever wondered if your $40 shampoo is ACTUALLY better than what you can get in the supermarket aisle? Or whether the skincare-inspired ingredients popping up in haircare are doing anything particularly groundbreaking? This week, we're joined by Cassandra Celestin (aka The Beauty Chemist), a cosmetic chemist, product developer and scientist, to separate haircare formulation science from marketing spin. We’re getting into what makes a good haircare product, which ingredients are worth paying attention to, and how to get more out of your hair routine. Also in this ep: our thoughts on refilling an empty Aesop hand soap with something cheaper, some of the products we trialled over the break, and our MVPs. Links below!

    Blepharoplasty, Injectables & Eye Skincare Explained with Dr Maryam Zamani

    This week, we're talking all things eyes with Dr Maryam Zamani — Consultant Oculoplastic Surgeon, Facial Aesthetics Doctor, and founder of MZ Skin. With over twenty years of experience across the US and UK, Dr Zamani breaks down what's happening as our eye area ages, why "tired eyes" isn't always about sleep, and walks us through everything from skincare and injectables through to blepharoplasty — helping us figure out what's worth considering, surgical or not. Plus, the beauty buys we don't think are worth the money, Carli's honest post-Botox experience, and the new-gen retinoid ingredient that's flying under the radar but might be worth watching. And our MVPs this week: Carli's tried and tested 10-minute self-tan mask for when you've got zero time but still want a glow, and Bettina's happy accident of a K-beauty lip tint.

    The Truths, Regulations and Marketing Fluff on Your Skincare Labels

    We're talking about all the words on the front of your product packaging, things like "medical grade," "clean," "clinically proven," "natural" — the phrases that sound official.

A tubing mascara that survived 38-degree heat in Vietnam without smudging, flaking or budging, and a new makeup brush collection you'll want in your kit.

    Winter Skin Is Chaos. Here's How To Fix It

    Winter has a way of throwing your entire skincare routine into chaos. And we're not just talking about dry skin. Whether you're dealing with dullness, sensitivity or a compromised barrier, cold weather, wind, and indoor heating can trigger a whole range of issues that generic "moisturise more" advice just doesn't cover. In this ep, we're drilling down into the real causes behind your biggest winter skin complaints and exactly what to change — your routine, your products, or the ingredients you're reaching for. And the good news? This advice works any time of year. Plus our MVPs of the week — a shampoo that will make your colour-treated hair shine like you've just left the salon, and a hand cream so good it might be the best one you've ever tried.
