Episode 36: What Your Skin Really Needs: Routines, Sunscreen & Lifestyle with Dr. Brooke Jeffy
In this episode, we sit down with clinical and cosmetic dermatologist Dr. Brooke Jeffy to talk all things skin health. From teen breakouts to aging skin, we cover what changes as we age, what your skincare routine really needs (hint: it’s probably simpler than you think), and how to choose the right cleanser and moisturizer.
We dive deep into sunscreen—how much, how often, and what kind. Plus, we explore how lifestyle habits like diet, stress, and sleep show up on your skin, and which trendy treatments are worth the hype (and your money), and which ones aren’t.
If you’ve got skin (and we’re guessing you do), this one’s for you.
