About this listen

Cosmetic surgery and skincare: a topic many of us are curious about, but few truly understand. Meanwhile, our skin keeps ageing, and the beauty industry keeps churning out 'miracle' solutions. This podcast is about bringing the real science of aesthetics into everyday conversation, and lifting the lid on what's actually happening beneath our skin.

I'm joined by actor and writer Salima Saxton as we peel back the layers of beauty myths and anti-ageing promises. We're bringing you face-to-face with experts from across the field, from nutritionists to plastic surgeons, to give you the unvarnished truth about how our skin ages and what we can (and can't) do about it.

It's time to inject some honesty into the world of beauty - no Photoshop required.

  • Legs, Lymph and the Cellulite Solution, with Kate Shapland
    Dec 12 2024

    It's time to breathe a thigh of relief. We've pinned down Kate Shapland, founder of Legology - the world's only dedicated leg brand - to walk us through the facts about cellulite, water retention, and puffiness, and the science behind the solution. Up to 90% of women experience this condition, but they have often been misguided into thinking it's about fat, rather than fluid flow. Kate jumped in with both feet, realising that the focus should actually be on the lymphatic system.

    From the formulas that help keep the lymph doing its job properly to dietary and lifestyle tips that boost the process from within, tune in for a candid discussion about legs and how to keep them healthy, shapely, and polished from the feet up.

    About our guest: Kate Shapland is an award-winning journalist, co-founder of the British Beauty Council, and creator of Legology, the world's only dedicated leg care brand.
