   Copper Peptides: Real Anti-Aging Science or Just Great Marketing?

   Copper peptides are suddenly everywhere in anti-aging skincare, but do they actually work? In this episode of Beauty Backroads, I’m going down another beauty rabbit hole to look at why copper peptides have become such a buzzy ingredient, what the science actually says, and where I think the marketing may be getting a little ahead of the evidence. Copper peptides, especially GHK-Cu, have been studied for decades because of their relationship to things like tissue repair, wound healing, collagen, elastin, and inflammation. We’ll talk about what copper peptides actually are, why researchers became interested in them, what we know about their potential benefits for aging skin, and one of the biggest questions that doesn’t get discussed enough: Can topical copper peptides actually get where they need to go in the skin to do what brands say they can do? The more you know, the more you glow! Thank you for listening to Beauty Backroads with Jentri Quinn There’s always more to the story. Thanks for listening to Beauty Backroads.

   Is Korean Skincare Really Better?

   Korean skincare is suddenly everywhere, but is it actually better? In this episode of Beauty Backroads, I’m going down the K-beauty rabbit hole to figure out why Korean skincare has become such a global phenomenon, what these brands may be doing differently, and whether the hype really lives up to the products. We also talk about PDRN (aka “salmon DNA”), one of the buzziest skincare ingredients right now. Thank you for listening to Beauty Backroads with Jentri Quinn There’s always more to the story.

   This is 50: How to Cover Perimenopause Acne Without Making Your Skin Look Worse

   If you’re dealing with acne during perimenopause, you may have noticed something frustrating: the foundation tricks that worked in your 20s and 30s don’t necessarily work anymore.

You may have more texture, sensitivity, or dehydration, and adding more foundation to cover it can actually make everything look more noticeable. In this episode, I’m sharing my best tips as a makeup artist and esthetician for covering acne-prone, changing skin, while still keeping your complexion looking like skin. Make sure to follow along on YouTube to watch the live demo! In this episode, we cover: How to prep acne-prone perimenopausal skin for foundation How to cover breakouts without creating heavy, cakey makeup Why dehydration can make foundation and texture look worse Where to use more coverage—and where to use less Tips for creating a smoother, more natural-looking finish on mature skin How to make your complexion look polished without trying to erase every imperfection The more you know, the more you glow!
