Today, we're chatting with dermal clinician Jayde Taylor—though you might know her as Driven by Beauty on Instagram and TikTok. 

Jayde's known for calling out the “marketing BS” in the beauty industry, and her mission is clear: cut through the noise and drop science-backed truth bombs so we know what actually works.

Today, we’re diving into the beauty myths she’s tired of seeing, skin trends on the horizon, and her best advice for anyone stuck in a skincare rut.
