Today I am sharing what is easily my favorite conversation, with the incredible activist, actress, and singer, Yasmine Aker. I have been following the uprising and protests in Iran since the murder of Mahasa Amini a little over a month prior to the airing of this episode. The Iranian women, youth, and LGBTQ+ community are risking their lives for a chance at the liberties and freedoms that we have today. The freedoms these courageous people are fighting for are similar in many ways to the freedoms currently attempting to be stripped from Americans.  To help amplify the voices of these incredibly brave women and because this is not either of our cultures, we are here to support Yasmine's voice and the story of the Iranian Women's Rights Movement that is happening right now.  To learn more about Yasmine, please visit her Instagram page @iamyasmi Here are some accounts on Instagram, people can follow and amplify: @middleEastmatters    @sarahrmni   @golFarahani   @ranarahimpour_bbc   @collectiveforblackiranians @from___iran   @1500tasvir    Due to Sanctions its not possible to send any funds to Iran, but here are some fundraisers working for progress in Iran:  This is the GoFundMe fundraiser seeking to accelerate and prolong global visibility and coverage through billboards/mainstream media outlets: www.gofundme.com/f/FreeIranCallForMedia  People can also donate to the Tor Project to help restore the internet in Iran: www.torproject.org  People can share their VPN with Snowflake -- https://snowflake.torproject.org/ or Tooseh app www.tooseh.org  List of resources and petitions:   https://freeirancalltoaction.com/  www.iranhumanrights.org Demand that the United Nations urgently create an international mechanism to hold the Iranian Authorities accountable 1-212-963-7160 Call the United Nations Women's Department 1-646-781-4400  Thanks to today's sponsors, OneSkin and Ritual!   OneSkin is the world's first skin longevity company.

Hey Beauty baddies! We officially made it to our J-Lo/Selena Cross over episode, in the Build Your Skincare Routine: Vitamins & Supplements series, where we cross over from speaking about ingesting our vitamins and supplements, to using them topically–ie in our skincare! One of the reasons today's topic, all about Antioxidants, Vitamin C, and Acorbic Acid is my favorite way to cross-over speaking about talking supplements and vitamins orally AND applying them topically is because ingesting Vitamin C, and applying Vitamin C topically each offer different benefits!  The products mentioned in today's show are:  LivOn Labs encapsulated Vitamin C PCA Facial Wash PCA Skin C & E Advanced SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic Send your beauty questions and beauty baddie moments of the week to truebeautypodcast@gmail.com .

Beauty Baddies, today's episode is all about one of my absolute favorite topics. I love vitamins and supplements, along with nutrition, they are the unsung heroes of the beauty industry.  This is a multi-part episode and today we are taking a deeper dive into the science behind supplementation and nutrition, honing in on The Essential Nutrients, specifically alpha-Linolenic (LNA) aka omega-3 and Linolenic Acid, (LA) aka omega-6 collectively known as the essential fatty acids. Because food is the only medicine that the average healthy individual requires on a daily basis, we are going to take a look at some of the research on the direct effects of the consumption of supplementation of various nutrients and their benefits to our skin through this series on vitamins and supplements.
