from Beauty IQ Uncensored · host Adore Beauty
This week on Uncensored, Mel makes the case for the best part of any night out: the girls’ getting-ready hour. Then, we dive into Renee Rapp’s viral lip combo and talk “nipple-matching” our lipstick shades. Yes, really. Then we’re joined by Dr Devini Ameratunga for PCOS Awareness Month. She breaks down what PCOS actually is, the different types, how it shows up in skin and hair, and what treatments and supports really make a difference. If you’ve ever felt confused about PCOS, this chat is a must-listen. And finally, in Stuff We Love, we’re all about K-Beauty staples: from lightweight lotions to juicy ceramide lip essences. We wrap things up with a hot topic from Europe: the EU’s recent ban on certain gel nail polish ingredients, and why BIAB is different.

What this episode covers
This week on Beauty IQ Uncensored, we’re diving into PCOS for PCOS Awareness Month with fertility specialist and gynaecologist Dr Devini Ameratunga. PCOS affects around 1 in 10 women, but it’s still one of the most misunderstood conditions out there. Dr Dev breaks down what PCOS actually is, the different types, and how it can show up in your skin, hair, hormones, and overall health. We unpack myths around irregular periods, weight, acne, and hair growth, and explore real treatment options—from lifestyle and diet to dermatology, medication, and even injectables. If you’ve ever wondered whether your symptoms add up, or how to advocate for yourself if you’ve been dismissed, this episode is for you. We’re also chatting about trending beauty news (Renee Rapp’s nipple-matching lip combo, anyone?), sharing our current K-Beauty faves, and unpacking the EU’s surprising ban on certain gel nail polishes.
