Are TikTok Skincare Routines Ruining Your Skin?

 

This week on the pod, Kylie Jenner's Victoria's Secret makeup has everyone talking, and Tegan's been deep-diving into the secrets behind her runway look. From spending 45 minutes on eyebrows to ditching primer and using surprisingly little foundation, she shares the tips and tricks revealed by celebrity makeup artist Ariel Tejada.

In Win, Bin or Recycle, we're talking overnight hair treatments. Are they actually worth the extra step? Mel and Tegan discover that the latest formulas have come a long way, with nourishing serums and bond-building treatments that work while you sleep, no morning hair wash required.

Then, could your TikTok skincare routine be doing more harm than good? Two new studies have revealed some concerning findings about viral skincare advice, including misleading claims, excessive use of active ingredients and an increase in skin irritation. Tegan explains which ingredient combinations to watch out for, how to tell if you've damaged your skin barrier and the simple routine she'd recommend to get your skin back on track. Plus, the pair unpack the obsession with glass skin and why social media is making it harder than ever to recognise what healthy skin actually looks like.

And in PWDKWN, Mel shares the COSMEDIX night cream she's completely obsessed with, while Tegan has a $15 Kmart find that's making her life significantly easier.
