325. Centella Asiatica: K-Beauty’s Skin Barrier Hero or TikTok Hype?

Centella skincare (aka Tiger Grass) has taken over our shelves, but what does it actually do? This week on Expert, we break down the science behind this centuries-old ingredient and why it's a barrier repair MVP. From healing support to anti-inflammatory power, we explain why it’s trending (again) and who should use it.

Plus, in Adore Anonymous, we help a listener dealing with hormonal breakouts before their period, offering tips for prevention and calming inflammation. And yep, we’re talking about the jellyfish haircut. Because why not?
