#054 In this solo Q&A episode, I review several crucial skincare concerns brought up by my followers. I debunk myths surrounding red light therapy and facial fat loss. I elaborate on my favorite products, including the Alpyn Beauty plumping lip mask and the CND Vinyl Lux nail polish, offering tiny, effective shifts to enhance your routines.

Additionally, I address the effectiveness of oral collagen, skincare routines for the body, and the pros and cons of chemical peels for acne. I answer questions about combining salicylic acid and Differin, the differences between retinoid and retinol, and appropriate skincare during breastfeeding. Each recommendation is backed by my personal experiences and scientific insights, guiding you towards healthier skincare practices.
