This week, Dr Emma Craythorne and Dr Ellie Rashid break down some of the internet’s most talked-about skincare trends. From castor oil as an alternative to botulinum toxin to banana peel facials, face taping for lymphatic drainage and beef tallow moisturisers...are these DIY hacks miracle cures or skincare myths?


They deliver expert, science-backed takes on what works, what’s risky, and what to avoid. Spoiler: not everything in your kitchen belongs on your face.
