Beauty IQ Uncensored

Throwback! Morning Breath

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 
Dermalogica UltraCalming Mist
Bioderma Sensibio AR+ SOS Spray
Cosmedix Purity Balance Exfoliating Prep Toner

PSA: If You’re Not Using a Toner, You’re Missing Out

On this week’s episode of Uncensored, Hannah and Mel take on the skincare showdown confusing the internet: La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Baume B5+ vs Avène Cicalfate Restorative Protective Cream. Mel breaks down when to use each, who they’re actually for, and why they’re not as interchangeable as TikTok might have you believe. If you’ve got sensitive, reactive, or barrier-compromised skin, this one’s essential listening. Hannah and Mel also share their personal skin barrier heroes, aka the products they reach for when their skin is one step away from a full meltdown.

Then it’s time for some fangirling, because Jayde from Driven By Beauty joins the pod for a no-nonsense guide to reading skincare ingredient lists. She also weighs in on dupe culture – are cheaper alternatives ever truly the same, or are we being sold a very convincing story?

And finally, Hannah and Mel put you onto two under-the-radar eye treatments they’ve both been loving from Cosmedix. If your under-eyes are tired, crepey, or just not cooperating, these might be worth adding to cart.

Products mentioned:
La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Baume B5+ 
Avène Cicalfate+ Restorative Protective Cream
Cosmedix Rescue Intense Hydrating Balm & Mask
Murad Intensive Recovery Cream
Medik8 Crystal Retinal range

Jayde From Driven By Beauty on Reading Skincare Labels & What Actually Works

This week on Uncensored, Mel shares a positive update on her chronic hives journey (finally!!) and the soothing skincare product that’s been a game-changer for her irritated, reactive skin.

Then, in Cringey Convo, Mel and Hannah tackle pillow hygiene. How often should you replace your pillow? What actually builds up inside over time? And how could it be impacting your skin, allergies, and breakouts? If you’ve been holding onto your pillow for dear life, consider this your sign to retire it.

We’re also joined by leading Sydney cosmetic doctor, Dr Phoebe Jones from Beauty By Doctor Cosmetic Clinic, to explain the increasingly popular 'brow lift Botox'. Learn how anti-wrinkle injections can subtly lift and shape the brows without surgery, who it works best for, and what results you can realistically expect.

In this week’s PWDKWN, Mel steps into the kitchen with a surprising find: a device designed to remove pesticides from fruit and vegetables. Is it worth the investment? She shares her honest thoughts.

Plus, if your makeup has started settling into fine lines, we’ve got you covered. Mel brings an Instagram hack that promises a smoother, crease-free makeup application – perfect for mature skin or anyone noticing texture changes.

Thanks to Dr Phoebe Jones for joining us!
