So... What Actually Is A Serum?

We're back for season 3! Leigh is officially on maternity leave so our lovely beauty writer Amy Clark is taking the reigns and Leigh has trained her well!

In this episode, Amy discusses what a serum is and where you might need to include it in your skincare routine.

Plus, we chat supermarket shampoo and whether it's really the best option for dandruff.

And in our Spendy Savey segment, Kelly shares a new savey oil that's just a "bloody good product."
