Everything You've Wanted to Know About Injectables
2026/10/12
Summer is officially on Mel and Tegan's minds, and they're kicking things off by sharing their favourite scents of the season. From nostalgic summer smells to the slightly weird ones they can't get enough of, it's a very fragrant trip down memory lane. Then, we're introducing a brand-new segment: Before Pay Day, After Pay Day! This week, we're talking skin-saving balms, from a clinician-loved option for sensitised and post-treatment skin to two budget-friendly alternatives that won't leave your bank account crying. Next, Dr Imaan Joshi from Skin Essentials Clinic joins us to bust some of the biggest myths about cosmetic injectables. Does your body eventually get used to Botox? Does dermal filler really dissolve completely? And what else have we been getting wrong about injectables? Dr Joshi sets the record straight. And finally, in Products We Didn't Know We Needed, Mel and Tegan have two very different discoveries: a beauty supplement drink that actually tastes delicious, and a luxe hair mask that'll leave your hair smelling so good, people might just stop you in the street.

How to Future-Proof Your Skin, Decade by Decade
2026/09/20
This week on Uncensored, Mel has an important question for Tegan: back in her dating days, did she ever use a date’s roommate’s beauty products? The team discuss whether helping yourself to someone else’s expensive shampoo or moisturiser is fair game, or a serious violation of girl code. Then, Mel has a dermaplaning hack for We Tried It, although Tegan is leaning more towards We Bin It, because she’d quite happily bin the entire at-home dermaplaning process. Mel, however, will not be tamed. Next, Tegan is future-proofing our faces with a guide to skincare through the decades. What should we be prioritising in our 20s, 30s, 40s and beyond if we want to set our skin up for the future? She breaks down what matters at every age, and what you probably don’t need to stress about just yet. Finally, it’s PWDKWN.

Is eyelid surgery really as scary as it sounds? What does the procedure involve, what kind of results can you expect, and just how much downtime is there?

Next, Tegan explains why your cleanser might be the most underrated product in your skincare routine.
