Leave me alone.\" In this episode, Dr. Mimi V breaks down why everything you've been told about cleansing, exfoliating, and treating your skin is working against you. She explains the skin microbiome in plain language, why washing more actually makes acne worse, what stress does to your hormones (and then to your skin), and why vitamin C and collagen supplements are mostly a waste of money. This is one of the most science-backed and genuinely surprising episodes we've done. πŸŽ™οΈ Guests: Mireille Vega: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mireillevega/ πŸ’» Book a virtual consultation with Boutique Skin Envie: https://bskinenvie.ca/ πŸ›οΈ Use code SKINTALKS15 for 15% off your first order Connect With Us: Hosts: Beate Instagram β†’ @beatevonhuene Natascha Instagram β†’ @nataschaschillinger Our Website: 🌐 https://bskinenvie.ca/ Stay Connected: New episodes every Wednesday πŸ“± Instagram β†’ @skintalkspod 00:00 Intro 01:11 Who is Dr. Mireille Vega? 06:45 What is Skin Science 3.0? 12:35 Why the skin microbiome is only now being talked about 13:42 More bacteria = less acne 17:21 What is the microbiome, really? 24:46 How stress rewires your skin 27:33 What healthy aging actually looks like 37:07 The good, the bad, and the wasteful ingredients 43:26 Why vitamin C and collagen disappoint 51:50 The 35-food rule for skin health 55:17 Rapid fire","meta_description":"We sat down with Dr. Mireille Vega, PhD biochemist, former biotech executive, founder of VGAM and creator of Skin Science 3.0, and she said something that…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":3482,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/skin-talks-5740524/episodes/what-your-skin-actually-needs/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/skin-talks-5740524/what-your-skin-actually-needs.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
