Beauty IQ Uncensored

This week on Uncensored, Mel shares a positive update on her chronic hives journey (finally!!) and the soothing skincare product that’s been a game-changer for her irritated, reactive skin.
Then, in Cringey Convo, Mel and Hannah tackle pillow hygiene. How often should you replace your pillow? What actually builds up inside over time? And how could it be impacting your skin, allergies, and breakouts? If you’ve been holding onto your pillow for dear life, consider this your sign to retire it.
We’re also joined by leading Sydney cosmetic doctor, Dr Phoebe Jones from Beauty By Doctor Cosmetic Clinic, to explain the increasingly popular 'brow lift Botox'. Learn how anti-wrinkle injections can subtly lift and shape the brows without surgery, who it works best for, and what results you can realistically expect.
In this week’s PWDKWN, Mel steps into the kitchen with a surprising find: a device designed to remove pesticides from fruit and vegetables. Is it worth the investment? She shares her honest thoughts.
Plus, if your makeup has started settling into fine lines, we’ve got you covered. Mel brings an Instagram hack that promises a smoother, crease-free makeup application – perfect for mature skin or anyone noticing texture changes.
Thanks to Dr Phoebe Jones for joining us!

Surprise! This week Mel steps in as guest host while Sadaf is away, and she’s bringing some very niche expertise with her... including a slightly terrifying nail polish hack.
In Win, Bin, Recycle, the team tackles lash serums. Tegan is firmly in the “win” camp, while Mel sits cautiously on the fence. Then it’s time for some brutally honest beauty regrets. From bad balayage decisions to lash extension nightmares, there is plenty Tegan and Mel regret, and they'll tell you exactly why.
Finally, they tackle a very practical beauty-adjacent dilemma: how to get pit stains out of your white tops. All the methods, myths, and solutions are here, so your favourite tee can live to see another day.

Mel and Hannah are back with another jam-packed episode of Adore Beauty Uncensored, covering hair treatments, sensitive-skin makeup tricks and a fresh SPF moisturiser worth taking a second look at. Mel kicks things off with her experience trying Kerasilk’s in-salon keratin smoothing treatment, and let’s just say, it’s a far cry from the hectic, stinky formulas she remembers from her teen years. She shares what the modern treatment is like, how her hair felt afterwards, and whether the results are worth the salon chair time. Later, Madeleine Edwards joins the show to share her expert advice on how to wear makeup when you have acne or eczema. She explains how to apply makeup without aggravating breakouts or irritation, the techniques she uses when her skin is inflamed, and the products she personally relies on. Plus, Hannah's been road-testing the new Clinique moisturiser with SPF 50+ coverage, and she’s a big fan. But does it play nicely under makeup? Is it lightweight enough for daily wear? She’s got the answers. Thank you to Madeleine Edwards for joining us!

Mel kicks things off on Uncensored this week with the oddly specific (and kind of unhinged) massages she wishes existed. Then, in Cringey Convo, the new mum chat continues with a very honest look at postpartum lochia. Don’t know what that is? It’s a lot, is what it is. We chat about what it’s actually like, what caught us off guard, and why it’s still not talked about enough. Then we’re joined by everyone’s favourite Bachelorette and GoggleBox star, Angie Kent, who shares her experience living with endometriosis, from the challenges of getting a diagnosis to what it’s like trying to be taken seriously within the Australian medical system as a woman. Plus, if your makeup routine needs to be quick, easy and legit impossible to mess up, we’re breaking down truly foolproof products and techniques we’ve found recently for effortless everyday makeup. Thanks to Angie Kent for joining us!

Plus, what do Sadaf and Katy Perry have in common? They’re both obsessed with the KORA Organics Turmeric Glow Moisturizer, and for good reason.
