Today’s episode is one that has been so highly requested over the years, we’re surprised it’s taken this long to talk about it! We’re talking about all things skin, skincare and myths about longevity. Joining us is Dr Natasha Cook, one of Australia’s leading dermatologists and the founder of her own skincare range DrNC. Dr NC is particularly straight forward when it comes to breaking down the facts vs the fads of skin.

We want to chat about the things we all want to know but are too scared to ask — like whether saunas are secretly ageing us, if collagen supplements are a waste of money, and why so many Australian companies had their sunscreens pulled from the shelves because they weren't what they said they were!

We speak about:

• The 6 key skin concerns. Most of us want to treat more than one.
• Should we prioritise skincare or nutrition? Dr NC’s answer to this might surprise you
• How much sugar and alcohol affects skin and can cause pimples
• Are collagen powders or gummies worth our money?
• Sleep - what products and routines help our skin
• If you’re serious about skin, saunas/hot yoga & pilates aren’t good
• Skin barriers & barrier function. What’s compromising the barrier?
• Botox - whether you get ‘used’ to it
• Perception drift and ‘preventative’ botox
• At home devices like LED lights, rollers, gua sha etc
• The “SPF Australia Scandal” and how these companies are avoiding Australian testing. Dr Cook “It is deceptive and misleading conduct.”
• How aerosol spray sunscreens are really misleading
• What lasers are best and will give the best results
• Dr NC’s ‘non negotiables’
