S2 Episode 5: Beautiful, Resilient, and Curious: A Mother-Daughter Skincare Q&A
Description
In this special episode of The Aesthetic Life Podcast, April sits down with her 14-year-old daughter, Emma Boyd, for a fun, honest, and totally unfiltered mother–daughter skincare Q&A.
Emma has been seeing every skincare trend imaginable on social media — from viral hacks to product overload — and she came straight to the source: her mom, an aesthetic industry O.G. with 20+ years of experience as a medical aesthetician.
Together, they break down:
- Teen skincare do’s and don’ts
- The truth about viral skincare trends
- What products teens actually need
- What’s safe, what’s hype, and what to avoid
- Real talk on skin health, confidence, and growing up
April also opens up about their week together, sharing a heartfelt story about Emma’s resilience, the lessons she hopes her daughter takes into adulthood, and why watching her “never quit” became such a defining memory.
Plus — a sweet surprise cameo from April’s favorite bunny visitor during recording… a little sign that beautiful things are unfolding in life, love, and this moment.
If you’re a parent of a skincare-curious teen, fascinated by social media beauty trends, or simply love authentic conversations about family, aging, and aesthetic wellness… you’ll love this episode.
Listen in for expert-backed skincare advice, mother–daughter vibes, and myth-busting that every teen (and adult!) needs to hear.
