Amanda chats with skincare coach Olena Beley to dive into the psychology of skincare and how our obsession with having perfect skin is wrecking our mental health. Olena debunks the skin care myths that we see on social media! We go into why we are all so obsessed with skincare, why the trend of showing your "empties" isn't good for us, what social media marketing is making us do to our skin, what Olena’s biggest pet peeves are (hint: not everything is acne), why you probably need to use LESS products not more, and how to focus less on what your skin looks like and how to actually take care of this organ.

Amanda shares about her current and past skincare issues and how she has been working on embracing her skin as it is. Olena calls out all the social media BS and false advertising she sees and teaches us how to reconnect with their skin.
