Episode description

Through the tribulations of COVID-19, self-care has become a symbol of hope for many. Be it a comprehensive skincare routine or a quick makeup regime to kickstart the day, these daily habits provide a sense of normalcy and comfort in precarious times. As a result, beauty brands have begun marketing their products around this social cause, without any discussion about the realities of mental health.

All episodes are written, researched, recorded and produced by students of the RMIT Graduate Diploma in Journalism.
