WTF is niacinamide, and does my face nee...

BODY + Soul
About this episode
Some skincare ingredients gain what seems like cult status pretty quickly… but what does it all mean? And what will the products that slap these buzzy words on their bottles actually do for your face? Kelsey and Ali dissect one of the buzziest on the block, niacinamide and ask Instagram’s favourite skin scientist Lab Muffin to weigh in with her thoughts, too.  Each Thursday, Body+Soul digital editor Alison Izzo (who, by her own admission, is no beauty expert) and Body+Soul beauty editor Kelsey Ferencak (who, is a bonafide expert with years of experience speaking to experts) get together to try and crack the everyday beauty problems that plague us all. Something Old/Something New: Kelsey: Yuni Beauty Chillax Muscle Recovery Gel $24 at Sephora Ali: Oui Wave Spray, $20 for 50ml at Sephora, or approx $37 for 145ml at Net-a-Porter You can find Michelle Wong on Instagram at @labmuffin You can join the conversation, or drop us a question, via the Healthy-ish Australia Facebook page, here.
