345. Can I Laser That? Your Biggest Questions, Answered by a Skin Expert
from Beauty IQ Uncensored · host Adore Beauty
From Parisian pharmacies to the local laser clinic — we’re talking French skincare staples and laser FAQs in this week's Expert episode. We kick off with a Bastille Day-inspired chat about our all-time favourite French pharmacy buys (think: Bioderma, Cicaplast, Nuxe). Then, it’s time to talk lasers. As a skin therapist and laser tech, Tegan’s heard it all, from “Can I laser bruises?” to “Can you laser nipple hair?” Today, we’re breaking down exactly what you can (and can’t) treat with lasers. From pigmentation and spider veins to acne scars and body hair in unexpected places (yes, even your toes), we bust myths, explain how lasers work for different skin tones, and share the prep and aftercare rules you really need to follow. Later, in Adore Anonymous, a listener asks: Are fragrance-free products always better for sensitive skin? Plus, we weigh in on social media's “Collagen Banking” for this week's Win, Bin or Recycle – is it a legit preventative strategy, or just another beauty buzzword? Everything Mentioned: La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Baume B5+ 40ml Bioderma Sensibio H2O Soothing Micellar Water Cleanser Bioderma Sensibio Micellar Cleansing Oil Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré NUXE Huile Prodigieuse Multi Purpose Dry Oil Join the conversation in our Beauty IQ Uncensored Facebook Group to discuss this episode, swap beauty tips, and submit your questions for future shows.
