It's hosted by beauty columnist and broadcaster Nicola Bonn.

Lorna started her journey as an NHS dermatology nurse, has authored over 20 clinical papers, and is the founder of Aesthetic Source, the award-winning platform that brings clinically proven skincare technologies directly to top-tier clinics across the UK. Lorna is no BS and SO knowledgable. If you're muddled about where you are with your skincare right now, I have a feeling that she's going to help you get back on track.","meta_description":"If you were to take a good long look at your skincare collection, there's a chance that some of the products you've spent your good money on won't be deli…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":2896,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/outspoken-beauty-204775/episodes/stop-buying-the-hype-exposing-skincare-myths-with-lorna-bowes/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/outspoken-beauty-204775/stop-buying-the-hype-exposing-skincare-myths-with-lorna-bowes.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
