Summary
This episode is brought to you in collaboration with Skin+Me.
In a brand new episode of the podcast I’m joined by the expert team of consultant dermatologists from Skin+Me; Dr Malvina Cunningham, Dr Ben Esdaile and Dr Jason Thomson.
If you’ve been following me for a while you’ll know I’ve seen a marked improvement in my own skin, dealing with the issues of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation since I started using the Skin+Me service. I’ve been so impressed, not just with my own results, but with how easy and efficient the service is.
One of the most impressive qualities of Skin+Me is the expert team of dermatologists behind the brand, which is why I asked them if they’d join me in an episode to answer YOUR questions about all things skin and skincare.
In this conversation, Malvina, Ben, Jason and I discuss:
- Who can benefit from seeing a dermatologist.
- Whether there are there any downsides to long-term retinol/tretinoin use.
- The topical ingredients that’ll make the skin look brighter.
- Their views on the skin-tightening and anti-ageing benefits of LED.
- How to know the difference between rosacea and general redness.
- How to tell dry skin from dehydrated skin.
- The topical ingredients that’ll support retinol in perimenopausal and menopausal skin.
- Why niacinamide doesn’t work for some people and what to use instead.
- Whether it’s really necessary to wash your face twice a day if you’re inside all day.
- What effect stress has on the skin.
- How to deal with maskne, and much more…
