This week on Uncensored, Mel has fallen deep into an Instagram rabbit hole and the viral anonymous confession account @gabetrew she’s found makes Cringey Convo look positively wholesome, and naturally, Hannah is horrified and fascinated.

Then, dermal clinician and TikTok skin educator Maddy O’Brien (@mads.skin) joins the pod to share the skincare products she genuinely believes deserve way more hype. 

From underrated barrier saviours to clever formulas nobody seems to be talking about, Maddy’s giving us the hidden gems she thinks should already be skincare-famous.

Plus, Hannah has been putting The Ordinary through its paces after trialling a stack of the brand’s newest launches. Which products surprised her, what’s actually worth adding to cart, and which formulas might quietly become your new routine staples?

NIOD Fractionated Eye Contour Concentrate
Medik8 Crystal Retinal
The Ordinary Retinal 0.2% Emulsion
asap Radiance Serum
Alpha-H Firming Peptide Body Oil
