  • The One About Ageing and Beauty

    On this week's episodes of the Shit You Should Care About podcast, Lucy and Abby discuss everything ageing and beauty. 


    It has never been easier to be beautiful. There are filters that restructure your face in real time. Procedures you can book on your lunch break. A product for every insecurity, a medication for every flaw. There are AI bots that you can ask exactly what to fix and how. Or comment sections that will give you that advice anyway, free of charge, and consent. 


    And not conforming to all of the above is deemed defiant.
