Enjoy a quick journey through the evolution of skincare advertising as we examine how the industry has developed up to the present day.

23. Fermentation in Skincare: Unleashing the Power of Age-Old Wisdom

22. Why Your Research into Skincare Products Should Be More Than Skin

21. Carbon Capture: World-Saving Technology or Expensive Distraction?

20. Greenwashing. Who can we trust?

Both challenging and transformational, the move into perimenopause, menopause, and beyond brings with it many changes – including to our skin.

We take a deep dive into how exercise impacts our skin, look at the benefits, and discuss some of the issues that can crop up (and how to avoid them).

The quest for immortality seems to be almost as old as humanity. Would you actually want to live forever though? The answer, for most of us, appears to be no.

In the second part of our series of investigations into potential solutions to some of the planet’s most pressing issues, we’re looking at microorganisms and their role in (possibly) saving the world.

In the first of a four-part series, we’re looking at some of the innovative ways that scientists and researchers are harnessing the power of algae to combat many of humanity’s most urgent problems. From battling climate change to addressing food security, these humble aquatic plants have significant potential in the search for a more sustainable, equitable future.

If your skin produces a lot of sebum, you’ve probably been told you have oily skin. Often, oily skin is presented as a problem, but it doesn’t have to be. Once you understand your skin and its needs, you can develop a skincare routine to care for it in a way that helps to balance out the increased sebum.

The way we use our cities is changing rapidly, spurred on by our increasing digital connectivity, as well as concern for the future if we can’t effectively reduce our greenhouse gas emissions. We recently discussed the materials that are helping to create energy-efficient and eco-friendly buildings. We’re now widening the lens now to consider our cities and discuss some of the projects already underway to secure a more sustainable future for our urban centres.

Our current method of growing food can’t continue. Unsustainable and environmentally damaging, conventional modern agriculture has no place in a world where minimising the impacts of climate change is an urgent priority. How our food is grown matters, both to the quality of the food itself and to the wider environment. Small-scale regenerative farmers are showing that a different way is possible...

Let’s take a look at what combination skin is, how you can tell if you have this skin type, and the best way to take care of your skin.

The design and function of the buildings around us, both public and private, define how we live our lives. They not only protect us from the elements but give us a sense of place, act as markers of our history, and help shape our cultural identity. As the climate crisis deepens, the urgent need to find more sustainable solutions is as vital in our buildings as in the rest of our lives. From self-healing concrete and hemp to bricks made of mushrooms and even urine, explore with us the latest innovations in sustainable building materials.
