Skincare and Scandals

Recently, social media has been actively discussing haircare brand Mielle Organics and whether it actually lives up to its promise of prioritizing the health of textured hair. The reports range from hair damage, severe dryness, breakage, to hair  loss.

But, is there any truth to these claims? What do the skincare science experts say about these claims? Or is this really just a matter of the loudest complaint getting the most attention?

Join Alicia and Nicole as they deep dive on this issue and try to get to the bottom of the recent social media chatter surrounding this brand.

What happens in Cabo, stays in Cabo…except for sunburns.

Our OG reality star from California, Kristin Cavallari, has been gaining attention recently for a podcast episode she aired with a holistic practitioner.  On that episode, she and Dr. Ryan Monahan, who has his doctorate in Eastern Medicine, spoke about how Kristin never uses sunscreen, among other personal choices. Monahan agreed with her opinion and their following discussion about sun exposure and how to protect your skin was not accurate or based on science.

The exchange has been passed around on social media and critiqued by dermatologists across America, but why exactly? What does it mean to be dunzo with sunscreen—does it really matter? Listen and find out!
