Dr. Heather is an active member of the Skin of Color Society and the American Academy of Dermatology, and she serves as chief medical advisor at Nutrafol. Big thanks to our friends at Nutrafol for inviting us to join them at AAD and for sponsoring this episode. Tune in to hear about: Why longevity is the buzzword on every derm’s lips —  and why we think that we’re going to be talking about “cell” care —  not just skincare, next. How the scalp’s microbiome contributes to good hair days.The “skinification” of hair continues —  what does the data say? How to know if your supplements are safe  — and what NSF Certified for Sport has to do with it. Why dermatologists are discussing A.I. at the AAD meeting (and it’s not for the reason you may think). A new sunscreen filter that’s finally debuting in the U.S.  — 20 years in the making.The emerging ingredients for tackling dark spots that you need to know about, now.The 2026 “It” skincare ingredient: Why iron oxides should be on your INCI list.The one lifestyle habit that, according to the latest research, contributes to lifespan most. For any products or links mentioned in this episode, check out our website: https://breakingbeautypodcast.com/episode-recaps/ Get social with us and let us know what you think of the episode!
