This week on Expert, Tegan is jetting off to Italy for a beauty training program, but before she leaves, Mel shares her best tips for vintage shopping in Italy!

Then it’s time for a divisive round of Win, Bin or Recycle: veneers. Are they the ultimate confidence-boosting dental upgrade, or are we heading toward a future where everyone has the same ultra-bright 'Barbie teeth'? Mel and Tegan unpack the veneer boom, what makes good veneers look natural, and when cosmetic dentistry can go very wrong.

Plus, Tegan is making a very passionate case for bringing toner back into your skincare routine. Forget the harsh, stinging formulas of the early 2000s! Today’s toners can hydrate, calm, exfoliate and support your skin barrier. She shares her favourite toner recommendations for every skin type and concern, whether you’re dry, oily, sensitive or dealing with breakouts.

And in this week’s listener question, the team help someone struggling with crepey under eyes. From dehydration and irritation to concealer mishaps and fine lines, Mel and Tegan break down what could be causing that creased texture and the products and techniques that can help smooth things out.

Products mentioned:
Laneige Cream Skin Cerapeptide Toner
Alpha-H Liquid Gold Exfoliating Treatment
Osmosis Skincare Blemish Prone Balance Botanical Activating Mist
